Chinese
road and bridge constructors in Basse, Upper River Region continued their free
service to communities in the region.
Their
latest institution to benefit from their intervention is The Gambia College
annex in Basse, where they cleared the venue for the inauguration of the
Collage.
According
to the head of the College Haddy Fofana, the venue for the event needed
clearing and they did not have the means to do so, they therefore contacted the
governor of the region Fanta B.S Manneh for assistance.
She
added that she then contacted the Chinese road and bridge constructors through
the China Aid project and they responded and cleared the area for free.
Fofana
thanked governor Manneh for her continued support to the College in all
aspects. She also expressed appreciation
to the Chinese construction team for intervening at a crucial time.
The
laying of the foundation stone for the College was done by President Barrow
last year through the support of the MRC Holland Foundation and the president
has returned to inaugurate the college as it has started admissions of students
for academic programs with standard classrooms.
