According to Hon. Singhateh, who is also a member of the ECOWAS parliament, the people of Baddibu now have access to clean and portable drinking water, electricity, telephone lines and good road networks. He recalled that during the former regime, Baddibunkas do find it very difficult to travel from Banjul to Baddibu.
"Thanks for his foresight, we can now boast of good road networks, and a lot of other development projects," he said, while calling on the communities to resolve their political differences and vote massively for President Jammeh and the APRC party.
