Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>Honourable Fabakary Tombong Jatta, the speaker of the National Assembly, has called for concerted efforts to combat climate change for the benefit of the coming generation.<\/p>\n \u201cLet us all be mindful and be advocate to combat climate change. Let us try and come up with a solution to make sure that the world we will hand over to the coming generation is a better world for them. If this trend continues, in 50 years to come, the world will get destroyed, and that may not meet some of us in this world,\u201d the National Assembly Speaker advised.<\/p>\n \u201cLet us make sure we hand over a world that is beneficial to the coming generation, and not be bad handover,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, he said APRC has bought 50kg bags of rice due for distribution to flood victims in Banjul, Kanifing Municipality, and the West Coast Region.<\/p>\n \u201cI want to urge people to stop politicizing natural disasters. We should be looking for solutions to address the problem than politicizing this disaster. This is climate change which is affecting the whole world. So, when such a disaster happens some people want to blame the government rather than trying to look for a solution to it.<\/p>\n \u201cWe should all be advocates for combating climate change so that the next generation can have a better life to live. If not if this trend continues, in the next 10 years the world will be seriously destroyed,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n \u201cWe must also work for the development of this country. And we want to assure the population that we will continue to render support to anyone who is affected by the flood. We are not doing this for politics. It has nothing to do with politics. We are a political party; we owe it to the people. If you say you want to lead a country in the name of the people, then if something happened, come out and give your support,\u201d he expressed.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, APRC top brass said they will distribute 20 bags of 50kg of rice in Kanifing Municipality, 10 bags of 50kg rice in Banjul, and 20 bags of 50kg rice in the West Coast Region.<\/p>\n For More News And Analysis About Gambia<\/a> Follow Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Adama Makasuba Africa-Press – Gambia.
