Holiday A Day

Hello and welcome to Holiday a Day, your daily dose of Holidays, festivals, celebrations and remembrances from around the world.   I’m Jeffrey Johnson   On July 12th 2014 we celebrate   Revolution Day - The Gambia   On July 22, 1994 Lieutenant Yahya Jammeh lead the coup that overthrew the government of Gambia because of the leadership failing to bring about the reforms promised. This new government has lasted since then and each July 22 is celebrated as the anniversary of the new country.   I have put some links in the show notes: http://observer.gm/africa/gambia/article/18-years-of-the-july-22nd-revolution-gambia-triumphs-1 http://www.answers.com/topic/gambia-revolution-day   Happy Revolution Day The Gambia.
