Seedy Drammeh, the Human Resource Manager at the Gambia Revenue Authority
(GRA), has published the latest book titled; “The first 100 days of the
coalition government, promoting justice, democracy and international
relations.”
This
bring to a total of 28 books been published by Dr Drammeh.
According
to Dr Drammeh, following the significant achievements registered by the
coalition government in the first 100 days, he decided to write a book on that.
He
said the two hundred and sixty page book was written as a consequence of
concentrated investigation that led to fascinating findings derived from data
and pieces of information that were gathered from different credible sources.
Mr
Drammeh said he has recognised the accomplishments in the first 100 days of the
coalition government on the right to express opinions, particularly in the
affairs of the government.
This,
he said, was a significant breakthrough, considering the past difficulties in
the Second Republic when someone had to be sure that he/she would not be
reported before talking about the government.
“I
am strongly convinced that the coalition government has protected the right of
Gambians to enjoy a legal process that is both transparent and just,” he said.
On
the right to free media, Mr Drammeh noted, all the media houses in The Gambia
are aware that the media has freedom and many people know that the government
continues to provide the enabling environment for media freedom.
On
the right to vote freely and show political belonging, Mr Drammeh continued
that it was evident in the 2017 National Assembly election that people had all
the liberty to exercise their rights by casting their votes for the candidates
they like without intimidation.
He
said the coalition government enable The Gambia to reconnect with countries and
important institutions around the world, including International Criminal Court
(ICC) and the Commonwealth.
The
book recognises the special relationship between The Gambia and the Republic of
Senegal, thanks to the foresight of the coalition government, he added.
According
to Mr Drammeh, the move was a clear manifestation of the coalition government’s
determination to uphold the principles of democracy.
He
said the book contains points that states many other important developments
registered in the first 100 days of the coalition government
He
said the draft copy of the book was sent to President Adama Barrow and his team
for their consideration.
