The Gambia Flag
The Gambia today celebrates 44 years of independence. On this day in 1965, the country became the last of Britain’s West African colonies to gain independence after 300 years of colonial rule and the Gambian flag of which the people of The Gambia are rightly so proud, replaced the Union Jack. The day is a national holiday and is marked by celebrations.
The flag will today also be seen flying on Newham Town Hall in Barking.
