The Head of The Gambia Press Union, EMIL TOURAY said the closure of Teranga FM and Hilltop Radio was a slap in the face for democracy.
This is the first sign of a crackdown on the media since Presdient JAMMEH refused to accept defeat in the December 1, poll.
Meanwhile, the head of Gambia’s electoral commission has fled to neighbouring Senegal fearing a plot against him.
Independent Electoral Commission chairman, ALIEU MOMAR NJIE fled to Senegal after he got information that the Gambian authorities were plotting against him and his team.
JAMMEH first took power in a coup in 1994.
He initially conceded to property developer ADAMA BARROW, but then launched court action to annul the result, saying the poll was marred by irregularities.
