Bah, whose work was also prominently featured by The Columbian, a local newspaper in his area, was also introduced by news sites including The Columbian and KGW8, an NBC affiliated television station.
However, the coverage in The Point had received an unprecedented, extensive and wide-ranging feedback from well wishes from both The Gambia, U.S. and beyond.
Since then, Bah found it extremely imperative to also give back to the needy and thus decided to assist the Gambian family to purchase rice and cooking oil.
In a touching and emotional mode of appreciation seen by this correspondent, Papa Njie, the head of the family said: “For your information, your contribution is very important and extremely helpful to my family. It came as a huge surprise and had met us in a difficult situation…It found me ill and unable to work…It will sustain us for a month which is really remarkable. Thank you”.
In a similar determination to support his fellow Gambians, Bah is also working on the formation of a major bookstore in the country that sells books at “reasonable prices for Gambians”.
Thus, the intention and motivation for launching Noor Books Gambia which is expected to sell “very affordable used books for the masses”. The news is well received by Gambians.
Bah, who earlier encouraged any Gambian who wants to start an online business to start as soon as they could, by further noting that “the key is to get started and to believe in yourself”, was also hailed by many who said they are inspired by his “hard work and perseverance”.
