Create More Jobs to Reduce Prison Overcrowding

Meaningful job creation is what our country needs the most. Currently, too many of our prisons are overcrowded, not with the biggest criminals, but with unemployed youths who turn to crime out of desperation. Meanwhile, those perpetuating grand corruption which is having a devastating impact on our health, education, agriculture and all other sectors walk free in suits with high respect, even inaugurating new prisons. What a paradox! This glaring disparity underscores the urgent need for a solution that ensures justice and prosperity for all.

Job creation is not just a strategy for economic growth; it’s a lifeline, a path towards dignity, stability, and hope for the future. In a nation where unemployment pushes many young people into the hands of crime, robust job creation can significantly reduce the prison population, allowing us to focus on rehabilitation and reformation rather than mere containment. By providing opportunities for employment, we can redirect the energies of our youth towards constructive and nation-building activities.

Corruption must be rigorously addressed as it stands as a stumbling block to both job creation and the equitable distribution of opportunities. Transparency and accountability in governance and business practices are crucial to fostering an environment where jobs can flourish and poverty can be effectively tackled.

With the real possibility of a looming jobs crisis, creating more employment opportunities should be one of our top national priorities. It is imperative that our government invest in creating sustainable and meaningful employment opportunities. Focusing on modernisation of our Agricultural sector, infrastructure, education, and technology sectors can provide diverse employment opportunities and prepare our workforce for a changing economic landscape.

This is what the UDP always calls for, a comprehensive job creation and anti-corruption initiatives to ensure that our prisons are not filled with the potential of our nation’s youths, but are reserved for those truly deserving of such confinement.

This is not as a critic but a reminder!

UDP Diaspora Raises Over $111,000 at 2nd Convention in Seattle Ahead of 2026

The United Democratic Party (UDP) held its 2nd Diaspora Convention in Seattle, Washington State, USA, on Saturday, 2nd August 2025, drawing party faithful from across North America in a powerful show of unity, purpose, and political resolve ahead of The Gambia’s 2026 Presidential Elections.

The high-profile event was attended by the Party Leader and Secretary General, His Excellency Lawyer Ousainu Darboe, along with Mayor of Kanifing Municipality, Talib Ahmed Bensouda, and Chairman of the Mansakonko Area Council in the Lower River Region, Landing B. Sanneh.

The convention, which was as much a political rally as it was a fundraising effort, succeeded in mobilizing both morale and material support. By the end of the night, more than $111,000 had been raised in contributions and pledges by diaspora members and supporters—an amount that underscores the strong financial and moral commitment of Gambians abroad to the UDP cause.

Addressing the gathering, H.E. Darboe praised the UDP Diaspora for their steadfast dedication and generosity. “Your commitment is not only appreciated—it is inspiring. This support sends a strong signal that the UDP is not just a national force, but a global movement committed to democratic progress and national development,” he said.

Mayor Bensouda and Chairman Sanneh both delivered rousing speeches, commending the energy and organizational strength of the UDP Diaspora chapters. They urged members to continue mobilizing support and to remain actively involved as the party intensifies its preparations for the upcoming presidential contest.

“This is just one of several fundraising events planned by the party—both in the diaspora and within The Gambia—as we prepare for 2026,” a party official said. “The funds raised will directly support the party’s operations, logistics, grassroots outreach, and campaign efforts in the months ahead.”

The Seattle convention marked a pivotal moment for the UDP, not only in terms of financial mobilization but also in demonstrating the strength of the party’s global network and the confidence its supporters have in its leadership and vision for The Gambia.

As the 2026 elections draw near, the UDP continues to present itself as a united and forward-looking political force, committed to building a better, more inclusive Gambia.
