Meet Rohey M. Bah: A Passionate Immigration Activist

In today’s evolving landscape of global migration, it takes a dynamic, dedicated, and visionary activist to drive meaningful change in migration advocacy. Rohey M. Bah, affectionately known as "Lady Bah," is widely admired for her unwavering resilience and her commitment to educating young people about safe migration practices and the perils of risky, unregulated journeys.

Rohey has become a respected figure in immigration circles through her powerful public speaking and community outreach initiatives. She has led numerous talks and workshops, shedding light on the dangers associated with illicit migration routes—often referred to as the “backway” to Europe—and providing critical guidance on legal and secure alternatives. Her clear, genuine leadership and persuasive communication skills empower youths to make informed decisions, equipping them with knowledge to navigate the challenges of migration safely.

In addition to highlighting the risks of dangerous migration routes, Rohey also addresses the broader socioeconomic context that drives many to consider such paths. Acknowledging the limited job opportunities available locally, she passionately advocates for skill development and vocational training as viable alternatives to risky migration. By encouraging young people to invest in learning new skills, Rohey believes they can unlock opportunities right at home, fostering sustainable growth and reducing the lure of dangerous journeys.

Rohey M. Bah is not only an inspiring leader but also a trailblazer who embodies the spirit of resilience and hope. Her tireless efforts in advocating for safer migration practices and promoting alternative pathways to success deserve recognition, as she continues to champion the cause of empowering the youth and transforming the migration narrative for the better.

Earlier today, I had an insightful interview with Haddijatou Jobe Gambia's Youngest Author and a Child Rights Activist on SOOGF ONLINE TV. She is currently pursuing her studies as a Science Student at Nusrat High School.

Haddijatou Jobe ,during the interview highlighted significant points and concerns:
She said “I began writing at a very younger age when I was just 14 years old .
The youngest Gambian author wrote two books, the first book entitled “The Journey to Success" and the second book is entitled "The Broken Home"
These books delve deeper into social problems, challenges, and how one can break the chains of stereotypes, and become successful in his or her endeavors just to mention few.

The youngest author, echoed strong points on the importance of children’s rights and literature in the Gambian society; by indicating that every child has a right and a responsibility which must not be abused for any other reason.
She further states, that it’s because of writing that sparked her interest in the subject of child rights to practically apply what I wrote for the purpose of those that can’t read and write.

Additionally, she advised young people to be strong and to be bold enough to welcome criticism; for it’s only people who are trying that get criticized: that been told, young people should chase their dreams and then be set to cultivate the product of their efforts.
She lamented that supporting young writers is fundamental. Support from the government and private sector should be a priority not a privileged she added“

The Journey of growth and impacts continues
