The Gambian honorary consul in Angola, Haji Jawara, has called on the Gambian citizens to support the development agendas of President Adama Barrow.
Consul Jawara, a respected businessman and influential second-tier diplomat in Angola said that supporting President Adama Barrow will only bring more and better development to the people of the Gambia since all developments are geared towards the betterment of the citizenry.
“No, the leader takes along with them any of their development when living office but rather it stays and benefits the citizenry. I believe in that aspect Gambian people should support Barrow for his entire presidency for more development rather than politicking or critising continually without meaningful or constructive agendas forward, the world is moving fast and it needs all hands on deck for the nation’s development. Countries around the globe have political parties with different ideologies but when it comes to the better of the country they are all really behind the leader in power, why not the Gambia,” he asserted.
Consul Jawara applauds the Gambian leader for calling for a national dialogue to shape the better future of the country together leaving no one behind.
“It’s the first of its kind and we need such to continue because the sitting leader is there for a time but the country and the citizenry remain,” he stated.
Consul Jawara further stressed that the political dialogue could have been a better start for the country to bring more development agendas to the table and better ways out instead of seeing it the other round, adding that not everyone can lead at the same time, adding that, those leading should be given all necessary support to realized collective gains.
The business tycoon Jawara applauds President Adama Barrow for initiating Operation Clean The Highway noting that Angola used to encounter similar troubles in their public routes until he (Jawara) wrote to the Angolan President to have the public space clear for smooth flaws of traffic and business.
“Immediately my letter reached out to the Angolan leader he wasted no time in implementing my request to have public highways clear until now it’s a culture in Angola for everyone not to allow any illegal structures on public domains and I expect the same culture to continue in the Gambia. It should be our collective responsibility to adhere to the rules of engagement in having public sspaces lear for the betterment, safety of pedestrians, and vehicle owners to have smooth flaws and we are not doing this for our leader but ourselves,” he concluded.
