Omar Amadou Jallow (26 October 1946 – 14 May 2023)[1] was a Gambian politician who was the Minister of Agriculture in President Adama Barrow's cabinet.

Jallow was also the leader of the People's Progressive Party, which held two seats in the National Assembly at the time of his death.

On the day of Adama Barrow's inauguration in February 2017, Jallow told Reuters "Today, I have been vindicated.

He was Gambia's first politician to have called for the legalization of marijuana and to repeal the country's tough anti-gay laws.

Jallow, a key member of the coalition that brought down Jammeh, also held a different opinion with the Gambian leader Barrow on whether he should stay in power for five years.
