The crown was presented to Linder Salim Joof by Miss Haddy Jobe, a presenter at Jannehkoto FM, a community radio station based in Gunjur.The presentation ceremony attracted audience from Gunjur and its environs.
Miss Sirreh K. Janneh, presenter of Children Dream Corner at the FM, said the initial plan was to make the crown presentation “absolutely massive” but because of the death of the son of the sister of the proprietor of the radio station, the event was held low-key.
