United States based militants of The Gambia’s ruling Alliance for Patriotic Reorientation and Construction ( APRC) have hailed what they called the  transformative path of the country under the leadership of His Excellency Sheikh Prof. Alh. Dr. Yahya Jammeh.

 

The militants were speaking recently during a meeting with the country’s charge d’affaires, Sheikh Omar Faye, at the Gambian Embassy in Washington DC.

 

According to a dispatch from The Gambia Mission DC, the delegation led by the chapter’s Chairman, Musa Drammeh met with Charge D’Affaires Faye on June  14,  2014.  

 

They were received  on arrival  by the  staff  of  the  Embassy  and,  after  exchanging  pleasantries,  the  Imam  of  the  Community,  Abdoulie  Saho,  offered  prayers  for  His  Excellency, the president  of  The  Republic  of  The  Gambia,  Sheikh  Professor  Alhaji  Dr.  Yahya  A.J.J.  Jammeh,  his  government,  and  the  entire  Gambian  communities  both  in and outside The Gambia, it stated. 

 

The chairman in his remarks, according to the dispatch, thanked  Faye  and  his  staff  for  the unique  opportunity  accorded  them  to  underscore  their  intentions,  among  other  things,  to  create  a  positive  bond  between  them  and  the  staff,  as  well  as  forge  a  healthy  relationship  among  all  Gambians  in  the USA, who are willing to be partners for a Greater Gambia ».  

 

 « Held  in  an  environment  of  cordiality,  mutual  respect,  and  collective desire to work together, the APRC executive members expressed their commitment to  consolidating  good  and  friendly  relations  with  the  mission  as  well  as  make  it a  functional  foundation  that  will  serve  our  mutual  aspirations  in  every  way  possible in the USA. Fundamental  in  the  sentiments  expressed  by  the  attendees  was  their appreciation of the archetypical leadership of His Excellency Sheikh PProfessor  Alhaji Dr. Yahya A.J.J.  Jammeh. To  them, The  Gambia  under  the  leadership  of  President  Jammeh  has  come  a  long  way  through  a  transformative  reformation  indicative  of  a  very  modern  and  well­respected  country.  

 

For  that  reason,  they  sincerely  pledged  their  continual  support  for  the  regime’s  fortitude  to  keep  the  monumental  achievements  of  which  they  are  proudly  identified  with  in  every  way  imaginable.  Instead  of  asking  for  what  the  mission  could  do  for  them,  they  in  general  emphatically  vowed  to  offer  their  assistance  whenever  and  wherever  necessary  because  of  their  faith  in The  Gambia  under  its  great  leadership.  All  other  speakers  from  various  states  echoed  similar  sentiments  as  well,  and  shared  their  past  and  present  activities  and  the  way  forward  in  achieving their goals, » the dispatch indicated. 

 

In  response, it added,  the  chargé  d'affaires thanked  them  for  their  excellent  initiative given that  despite  their  busy  schedule,  they  all  travelled  all the  way  to  Washington  DC.  

 

He  firmly  assured  them  of  the  government’s  steadfastness  to  providing  those  essential  services  central  to  the  success  and well­being  of  all  progressive  Gambians,  be  they  at  home  or  abroad.  They  were  further  assured  that  their  message  will  be  forwarded  to  the  Office  of  the President, whose  desire to work with fellow citizens and friends like them  has  always  been  his  underlying  conviction.  

 

We  also  conveyed  to  all  of  them  that  the  mission  largely  belongs  to  them,  to  which  they  are  always  welcome to contribute any new ideas deemed important for its bettermenThe  courtesy  call  ended  with  a  closing  prayer  by  Gen.  (Ret.)  Yankuba  Drammeh,  deputy  head  of  mission  of  The  Gambia’s  permanent  mission  to  the  United  Nations.  Mr.  Pierre  Minteh,  Protocol  and  Welfare  officer,  chaired  the occasion, it concluded.
