The
acting vice president of The Gambia has said the government of President Adama
Barrow would not interfere with the operations of any project.
Fatoumata
Jallow-Tambajang, who is also the minister of women’s affairs, made this remark
while presiding over the launching of bio-fortification project at the Regional
Education Directorate in Brikama, West Coast Region.
She
said the objectives of the government are to leave a good legacy and to ensure
good governance “which everybody is now enjoying in this country”.
She
further said the Barrow government is the government of the people and by the
people.
Speaking
on the newly launched bio-fortification project, funded by the EU and
implemented by United Purpose, formerly known as Concern Universal, Madam
Jallow-Tambajang said there was still the need to strengthen the monitoring
mechanism to ensure quality assurance at all times.
The
EU’s effort would never be forgotten in the entire Gambian history, she said.
The
acting vice president also spoke extensively on the need to maintain peace and
stability in the country, saying in the absence of peace and stability there
will be no meaningful development.
