Open letter to the Minister of Transport and Infrastructure and The National Road Authority.

Will the Nuimi Road Project be completed?

In 2020, the Government of the Gambia laid a foundation stone for the construction of major roads covering Lower and Upper Niumi in the North Bank Region (NBR). This development, which was highly welcomed by the residents of both districts for its anticipated impacts on the lives and livelihoods of the residents, has now turned to be a distressing project, particularly the Bangally – Bafuloto road.
The project which is an 88km road is believed to be funded by the Government of the Gambia at the tune of GMD 1.3 Billion, is commonly called the Niumi - Hakalang road, and it covers villages from Buniadu – Albereda; Bagally – Bafoloto - Chila – Kuntaya was supposed to last for 26 months. But it is now up to four years since the project was launched without the road construction being completed. There remains doubts if the project will ever be completed. Being the only that connects most of Upper Niumi to the rest of the region, my hope was to see that the road was completed on time because the people in the area have been suffering for a long time.
It was reported by a local newspaper in October, 2022 that the delay of project completion was caused by contractors. In fact, Omar Darboe, the National Assembly for Upper Niumi was quoted as saying, “Some of these projects are given to Gambian contractors and they do not have the capacity to implement or execute the contracts to the fullest. That is why these contracts are failing at the field level. It does not make sense to give money to a contractor who lacks the capacity and cannot deliver and the government should change their attitude towards procurement because the country is losing several millions of dalasi from this.”
Yes, one would not dispute the fact that the condition of the road has somehow improved, but not as expected, considering the cost involved in the project. It is already 20 months on top of the initial 26 months and there is still no basalt seen at some of the project sites, particularly the Bangally – Bafuloto road. The little work done at the aforementioned road has arguably made the condition of the road worse because of the countless pot holes on the road and drivers have no other option (to divert to better roads) but to stick on those destructive pot holes, thereby causing mechanical problems on their vehicles and body pains to the travellers.
I understand that the contract was supposed to end or complete in December 2022 and I wonder if it has even reached 50% since its commencement. The Ministry, however, was heard blaming the insufficient of laterite in the area and its deputy Permanent Secretary by the surname Colley in October 2022 said the ministry would give the contractors an additional 6 months after the expiry of the contract which was supposed to be December 2022. This deadline too has passed without any much progress.
The Chairman of the CSC Group that was contracted to contrast this important road was quoted at the foundation laying saying, they [CSC] will deliver and successfully accomplish the project within 26 months.
Yes, I understand that the Minister of Works together with NRA do have inspection tours at the ongoing road projects but to my disappointment, they only visit the Buniadu Hakalang road in Niumi which, one can confirm, is far ahead of the other roads. As such, visiting only this road would mean misinforming the people on the projects.
Niumi being one of the least developed areas in terms of good road networks, its residents were hoping that this project would be taken seriously by both government and the contractors to end their decades’ struggles for good road networks.
The questions that continue to linger in my mind are:
1. How long will it take to complete these projects and who is still financing the contract that was supposed to elapse in December 2022?
2. Will the government come out and tell us what is still holding the project from completion?
3. Will they also visit all the project sites instead of only visiting the projects where some progress has been made?
4. Or will they continue playing their tactics- that is to show seriousness only when the President is on his meet the people tour or campaign time?
Regards,
A Concerned Citizen of Upper Niumi

Remembering Malik Jones: Tribute Poem by Modou Lamin Age-Almusaf Sowe

I did a rhyme and riddim
A song and a remix
Dancing with the sands on Afri-Radio
Listening to the old versions of the Weekend Panorama,
From media to journalism, only your seedlings grow in our hearts.
Malik Jones, a beacon of light
In the realm of journalism, shining bright
With a pen in hand and truth in heart
He fearlessly played his part

A voice for the voiceless, a champion of the oppressed
He never wavered, he never rest
His words were a weapon, his pen a shield
In a world where justice often yields

His dedication and passion inspired many
To stand up for what is right and not just any
His legacy lives on in the stories he told
In the hearts of the people, young and old

Though he may be gone, his spirit lives on
In the pages of history, forever drawn
Malik Jones, a hero, a legend in his own right
Rest in peace, dear friend, in eternal light.

For Malik Jones (RIP) the late Gambian journalist of immense productivity.

In their quest to recruit a strong football team for the national leagues, the Gambia College team made their debut with a strong performance against Miami FFP in the Busumbala Summer Tournament today, August 9, 2024, at the Busumbala Football Field.

After a challenging first half that ended in a 0-0 draw, the Gambia College team emerged with renewed energy in the second half. Their persistence paid off with Lamin Tamba and Ebrima Jabbi each scoring a goal, securing a 2-0 victory over Miami FFP. This win marks an impressive beginning for the college team in the tournament.

Congratulations to team Gambia College 🎉🎉
