Petition is addressed to: His Excellency, the President of the Republic of The Gambia.

We demand the immediate and unconditional reinstatement of the Auditor General of The Gambia, who was forcefully and unconstitutionally removed from office on September 15, 2025.

Reason

The unlawful removal of the Auditor General violates Sections 158 and 160 of the 1997 Constitution, which set clear rules for removal and guarantee the independence of the Office. No tribunal was appointed, no due process was followed, and police interference directly undermines the integrity of a key state institution.

The Office of the Auditor General is central to accountability, transparency, and the fight against corruption. Weakening this office erodes public trust and threatens democratic governance.

As Section 5 of the Constitution states, every Gambian has the duty to defend the Constitution against unlawful subversion. This petition is our way of upholding that duty.

Thank you for your support, Gambians Against Looted Assets, FC69+42M, Banjul

Why people sign

The removal of the auditor general was done illegally .

I want the government to reinstate Modou Ceesay as auditor general

To end corruption

It avoids further occurrence of this unconstitutional act

This is important to me because my Government blatantly decided to violate my country's constitution to sack the country's Auditor General, so as a transparency and Accountability advocator I deem it more than necessary to sign this petition.
