Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>The Chief of Wuli West in the Upper River Region, Alhagie Mamadou Bah has applauded Beakanyang, a local NGO for transforming lives and livelihoods in his district and country at large.<\/b><\/p>\n

Chief Bah made the remarks recently in Barrow Kunda while presiding over the inauguration of a community market and a borehole provided by the local NGO.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeakanyang is an organization that the people of Wuli West are grateful to for bringing us numerous life changing projects,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Chief Mamadou Bah urged the beneficiaries to take good care of the facilities, adding that such projects would contribute towards alleviating poverty and boost income of women.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Beakanyang officials reaffirmed their commitment to continue empowering women and youth in the country.<\/p>\n

Abubabraa Danjo, vice chairman of Basse Area Council who also doubles as Sare Ngain Ward Councilor said that the market and the borehole when fully utilised and maintained could transform the community and boost the economic activities of women.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday is a momentous day in the life of our community as we gather here to celebrate the inauguration of not just one, but two essential assets that will undoubtedly transform the lives of our people. I stand before you as your Ward Councilor with immense pride and gratitude for the opportunity to witness this historic occasion,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

According to him, the market is not just a physical structure but a symbol of growth, unity, and progress. \u201cIt will serve as a hub for commerce, a place where local entrepreneurs can showcase their talents and products, and a space where we can come together as a community.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs your Ward Councilor, I am committed to working tirelessly to ensure that these assets are not just inaugurated today but are maintained and enhanced for the benefit of generations to come. Together, we will continue to build a thriving, inclusive, and sustainable community,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Modou Danso, regional coordinator of NGO Affairs Agency in URR commended Beakanyang for its contributions to national development.<\/p>\n

\u201cNGO Affairs Agency acknowledges the great contributions of Beakanyang towards the socio-economic development of the country,\u201d says Mr. Danso.<\/p>\n

Nfamara Jawneh, executive director of Beakanyang thanked the GEF\/SGP of UNDP for funding the project.<\/p>\n

\u201cStanding by rural women farmers is not only the right thing to do but is critical in the fight against climate change effects and human rights,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cOther than our national human rights education program, we work with people living in extreme poverty to develop projects and programs aimed at alleviating poverty and injustice in rural areas. We do not only do advocacy on critical issues such as human rights, climate change and women political participation, but we are doing service provisions to complete government\u2019s efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n

He reaffirmed his organisation\u2019s commitment in empowering women to improve their livelihoods and build resilient communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cClimate change is real and we need to act to mitigate its impact especially on vulnerable people in our society,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

A beneficiary at the market, Mba Matta Fatty told the gathering that the construction of the community market had already started bearing fruits for them. She said their garden\u2019s many years water problem is now a thing of the past.<\/p>\n

At the end of the event, certificates were awarded to contractors and community representatives of the NGO.<\/p>\n
