The chairman of Brikama Area Council (BAC), Yankuba Darboe, said the initiative aims to promote community-driven development and strengthen grassroots governance. The funds will be used to implement priority projects identified by the communities, ensuring visible development in every area.
BAC chairman emphasised accountability, ensuring that all funds are properly managed and projects benefit the people.
He said the disbursements are made possible through taxpayer support and the integrity of those collecting and managing the funds.
According to him, BAC has already seen significant progress, including the construction of 22 boreholes, eight market sheds, and the connection of three communities to the national electricity grid.
He added that this initiative is expected to bring lasting improvements to communities across the region.
