"The organisation has experienced a period of leadership wrangles due to conflicts of interest. This challenge has undoubtedly affected the association's ability to operate fully and effectively to serve the interests of our young people,” Minister Badjie said.
He noted that the Scout Association has long been recognised as a beacon of leadership, community engagement and personal development through non-formal education for young people in The Gambia.
