The president of The Republic, His Excellency Sheikh Professor Alhaji Dr Yahya Jammeh, has announced another pledge of two hundred and fifty thousand dalasis (D250, 000) for anyone who can list all the development projects that were implemented by the APRC government from 1994 to date.
The president made this pledge yesterday, at the Cabinet Room at State House in Banjul shortly after the voting of Juma K Camara as the winner of the July 22nd Revolution anthem competition. "The revolution anthem competition is the first, but might not be the last. What I want is another competition for anyone who can list all the developments of the APRC government projects from 1994 to date," the president said.
According to the president, all contributors should submit their lists by Thursday 16th July and latest on July 17th and they should be addressed to the secretary to the Cabinet at State House. Gambians and non-Gambians, the president said, are encouraged to participate.
In his final statement, the Gambians leader announced at the gathering that there will be many competitions for this year, some of which will be for the Senior and Junior Secondary schools. "I really want to keep everyone busy this year," he concluded.
