The National Anthem is the pride of our Nation, The Gambia. It is an expression of honour and dignity for all Gambian.
It is the instrument that brings together all sector of the nation that is ethnic, religious, political, cultural and social group to see themselves as one people living in peace and harmony.
The purpose of the Anthem is that every Gambian should have a common expression of loyalty to the country.
The words in the national Anthem are very meaningful and inspirational. The called for hardworking, unity of purpose, peace and freedom for everyone, religious tolerance, justice and patriotism loyalty.
Therefore, we all must respect and honour the National Anthem whenever we hear it sung, it will not be enough to only know and sing the national anthem but we should make sure that we act upon what it say..
let us reflect on our national anthem is not just a mere song it entail more that a song we need to to embrace one another and help one another peace is sweet than violence.
The smiling coast of Africa is beyond ethnocentricism and violence.
