The President made the remarks when he received the senior members and partners of the Migration & Sustainable Development in the Gambia (MSDG) project on Friday, 28th October, at the Statehouse in Banjul.<\/p>\n

The delegation, led by Professor Gibril Faal, the Project Director, went to the presidency to pay him a courtesy call and provide an update on the Project\u2019s most recent activities. Prof. Faal noted that the MSDG project has been collaborating with the Office of the President since 2017 and that this cooperation would be strengthened with support from the Office of the Chief of Staff.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that the MSDG\u2019s work cuts across MDAs in the government and that the Office of the President plays a significant part in the process. Professor Faal expressed gratitude to the President for supporting the implementation of the Project throughout the years and emphasised the team\u2019s dedication to helping him achieve his growth goals.<\/p>\n
