President Adama Barrow Begins Nationwide Tour
By Fatima Jarju

President Adama Barrow has commenced his nationwide tour with a series of site visits and community engagements in the North Bank Region.

The tour began with an inspection of the FABB Maternity Unit under construction at Essau District Hospital. The project is being implemented by the Fatoumatta Bah Barrow Foundation (FABB), a charitable initiative founded by the First Lady.

From Essau, the President proceeded to Juffureh Village, where he visited the local museum. He was warmly received by a large crowd of supporters, community elders, and local authorities who briefed him on the history and significance of the museum.

President Barrow’s next stop was at Kerr Demba Holleh Lower Basic School, where he visited the newly established computer lab. He also toured the Bangally NAWEC substation, a key infrastructure project aimed at improving electricity supply in the area.

Later, at a meeting held at the Maka Bala Manneh football field, the Chief of Lower Niumi, Sayfo George L. Sonko, appealed to the President to review the allocation of government funds meant for underprivileged women. He expressed concern that the funds were not reaching those most in need.

Sayfo Sonko further urged government ministers and officials to engage more directly with citizens in order to better understand and address their challenges.

Speaking on behalf of the youth, Nyaha Ndong expressed gratitude to President Barrow for expanding electricity access and reducing the price of electricity meters from D7,000 to D500. She appealed for improved road infrastructure in the community.

In response, President Barrow assured the people of Maka Bala Manneh and the wider North Bank Region of his government’s continued commitment to development and improved living conditions.

According to the Constitution of The Gambia, the President is required to embark on a nationwide tour to engage with citizens, listen to their concerns.

Unite Movement for Change Accused of Emulating Senegal’s Pastef Model

The Unite Movement for Change, led by Talib, is reportedly planning to adopt the political strategy of Senegal’s Pastef party as it prepares for The Gambia’s 2026 presidential election, sources have told this medium

According to a reliable source familiar with the group’s plans, the movement intends to organize a series of nationwide demonstrations aimed at discouraging President Adama Barrow from seeking a third term in office.

The source, who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter, alleged that Talib and his movement are concerned about facing President Barrow at the polls and are therefore seeking to attract international attention particularly from the United Nations to pressure the president not to contest.

“Talib is ready to spend a significant amount of money to mobilize young people to take to the streets for his political interests,” the source claimed. “He is eager to lead this country but fears that the electorate lacks confidence in him.”

The source further cautioned Gambian youth to remain vigilant and avoid being manipulated for political gain. “Let no youth risk their life for Talib or his movement,” the source said. “If they wish to demonstrate, they should do so with their own families rather than using young people as political tools.”

Thank you so much to Youth Adviser to the President, Mr. Lamin K. Saidy, for standing by the youth throughout yesterday’s protest.

Your decision to visit the victim’s family with a delegation shows your deep compassion and leadership.

I’ve also learned that you were present in Mandinary late into the night on the day of the incident your commitment to the youth is truly commendable.

Please continue to be the strong advocate that you are.
Much love and respect to K Saidy.

*Welcome to Sanchaba Touba Market* .

For the past five years, our community has been unfortunate to have a UDP councillor who has failed us. Now, instead of addressing these failures, the UDP has simply brought in a new face—hoping to deceive us once again.

The current state of the market is unacceptable. It is dirty, neglected, and unfit for the hardworking women who sell there every day. These are our mothers and sisters, and yet they are forced to work in such poor conditions while still paying their daily duties.

I call on the so-called UDP councillor to finally stand for the people—not for personal gain. It is heartbreaking to see our women struggle in these conditions with no meaningful support.

Statement by Fatima Jarju

Please stop targeting my boss lady. She is a proud Gambian and, like every citizen, she has the right to engage in any legal business in The Gambia. There is no need for jealousy or hate. I understand what’s really bothering some of you, but the truth is—she will continue with her business, and no amount of negativity will change that.

Let’s be honest: some of this criticism is rooted in dislike for President Barrow and his government. But attacking his family unfairly is not the solution. His Excellency President Adama Barrow is one of the most peaceful leaders in the world. He has shown genuine love and support for the youth of this country—99.9% of Gambian youth, in my opinion, recognize this.

As for those few idle youths who are taking to the streets in protest, let’s be real—many of them are not contributing meaningfully to national development. We have a democratic system, a president who values peace, and a country that enjoys stability. It’s unfortunate that some want to misuse that freedom to cause unrest.

We will not sit back and allow a few individuals to threaten the peace and stability of our beloved Gambia. Let us all work together to build, not destroy.

WE ARE FIXABLE

By David Kujabi

Look around you in beautiful Gambia and it's easier to count the things that ain't right than things that are. This seems a society falling apart from every structure.

The fabrics that once held this uniquely shaped country are wearing away real fast. The frames that once held and bonded a people, are breaking, letting canker eat up a once beautiful picture

The trademark smile of the coast is replaced with a mix of a cry and and a frown. The inviting beat of the djembe drum has been replaced by a melancholic rumble of impending doom.

The religions that once weaved a society of love and tolerance are carving out menacingly ugly shapes. The education that taught "let justice guide our actions towards our common good", is replacedby the mantra of the good of an individual or political party.

The community values of 'badinya and sin̈oya' are being replaced by push for 'si fasaroo'. The culture of respect for the elderly, leaders and women are being replaced by unchecked insult and abuse.

Our problems are plenty and scarily getting worse, but we won't give up on them. These problems are fixable. We have the right tools and are blessed with the human resource that knows how to use those tools.

Give to Babou, what belongs to Babou and to Fatou what belongs to Fatou. That way there'll be progress and peace. Until we do this, we all are trapped in this ship that is caving in.

On toes I stepped on, I say sorry. You know I mean well.

Jumma Mubarak
