An
executive committee has been set up to coordinate and manage the safe
transportation of Gambian returnees from Senegal.
The
Coalition Reconciliation Council Committee was formed to tackle the challenges
involved in the transportation of the returnees at border posts such as Giboro,
Darsilami, Karang and Kartong.
The
head of the committee, Ousman Sillah, said they set up the committee to help
coordinate the efforts of all stakeholders like GTSC, Red Cross, Fire service,
NDMA, etc., in facilitating the transportation of the Gambian returnees in
order to avoid wastage of resources and keep records of them.
As
public institutions are ordered to help in the safe return of Gambian refugees,
this committee would ensure the organisation, management and coordination of
the resources from charitable organisations or philantropists to reach out to
the needs of Gambian retunees in cash or kind.
The
committee can be reached on 9953212.
