The book, entitled ‘Mission of Fulfilment’, highlights among other things the coming of Islam to The Gambia and how local chiefs ruled their people during the pre-colonial era.
In a chart with Youth Forum yesterday, Bah said that ever since he was in high school at Amitage, he had fallen in love with writing.
“After years of struggle this is going to be my first book and I need support to realise my dreams of becoming a great writer,” he said.
“When I was going to school, I never had the opportunity to read Gambian novels at school and I decided to venture into writing one,” he added.
