Jobe expressed delight and appreciation over this important milestone made possible through the tireless efforts of the entire management in ensuring that this important national institution operates from its own offices as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are indeed hopeful that this gathering today will yield positive dividends for our institution. It would be a huge achievement for all of us when this is completed to be able to house our staff and improve our image and working environment considering that we are expanding with additional mandates,\u201d DG Jobe said with optimism.<\/p>\n<p>In a similar, but different engagement, the Authority also appended signature with one of the leading insurance schemes, West Africa Takaful Company Limited.<\/p>\n<p>The agreement entered into with West Africa Takaful Company would enable PURA to be a beneficiary of the medical insurance services offered by the West Africa Takaful Company for its teeming staff.<\/p>\n<p>This is critical as PURA has been self-insuring itself and the costs of medical have always exceeded the budget and the required supplementary approval. This has caused unnecessary stress to the administration, and hence is a timely development.<\/p>\n<p>Both parties were elated and expressed hopes of further cementing the working relationship. The scheme undoubtedly will help for the optimal usage of the meager resources of PURA and attract a better and more responsive health service delivery system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
