We have identified areas where government cannot reach sufficiently to help those sectors and Tanka Tanka is among the areas that we have identified,\u201d the chairman stated.<\/p>\n<p>A matron at the psychiatrist hospital, Bakary Camara expressed delight over the items which are: rice, sugar, sanitary pads, detergents, soaps, flour, oil and bleach.<\/p>\n<p>Camara said the items came in time and also lamented the challenges they face as a result of deportation and irregular migration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis place is the only psychiatrist hospital in the country; we have a bed capacity of 150 and sometimes we exceed the limit of admitting patients especially during the Covid. Due to irregular migration and deportation, most of the migrant returnees develop mental health illness when they arrive and that becomes a challenge for us. We are grateful for your support and these will go a long way,\u201d Camara stated.<\/p>\n<p>Abdoulie Cham, the public relations officer of the association, said they feel it as a necessity to start their activities with Tanka Tanka to help the patients.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cIt is our mandate as an association to support our fellow Gambians. The people at Tanka Tanka are here because of their situation; that is why they are being managed here and we have to help them\u201d.<\/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.
