She stated that: “I wish to take this opportunity to thank our partners such as the Gambia Groups and Forum Civ for the commitment to our impactful partnership over the years in spite of the political shifts towards international cooperation in Sweden. We thank the Luminos Fund, Think Equal, EU delegation to the Gambia and NAOUSU, TANGO, FAWEGAM, MOBSE, CRS, NDMA, ROOTS project, Prof. SIDAT YAFFA, TAD, the National Assembly of the Gambia and all other friends of FIOHTG for working hand in hand towards a betterment of the Gambia.”

“As we usher in a new year, my hope is that we are able to put into effect the rightful systems to reward and recognise each staff fittingly for their contributions. Because we have seen what a motivated workforce can do for the country. Here at Future In Our Hands, the formula is already there and we need to update and reflect on the realities and put further concerted efforts needed to accelerate our development vision,” Jainaba Sarr disclosed.
