What is divorce process in Gambia?

In The Gambia, the divorce process typically begins with one spouse filing a petition for divorce in the High Court. The petitioner must provide grounds for the divorce, such as adultery or irreconcilable differences. After filing, the court will schedule hearings to determine the case, during which both parties can present their evidence. If the court finds sufficient grounds for divorce, it will issue a decree nisi, which becomes a decree absolute after a waiting period, finalizing the divorce.
