So, regional secretaries elected by congress must be residents of the area and if they fail to deliver, they will be removed. This is why a new motorcycle and telephone are provided to all of you,\u201d Ceesay said.<\/p>\n<p>He said the regional secretaries have taken an oath to serve to the best of their ability with dignity and respect to the party\u2019s principles.<\/p>\n<p>The NPP deputy administrative secretary and National Assembly Member for Basse, Saikou Bah, said the induction meeting is not a lecture but a forum to share ideas and best practices.<\/p>\n<p>He reminded the regional secretaries that leadership is all about creating a conducive environment for others to thrive.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLeadership also requires sharing responsibilities and influence to bring about change. The president has taught us different forms of leadership qualities and now it is left to us to live up to expectation,\u201d Bah posited.<\/p>\n<p>For her part, the party\u2019s women national mobiliser, Aja Maimuna Baldeh, underscored the importance of putting women in the forefront of the party\u2019s decision making.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlso, we should always consult and respect one another. Patience is also paramount in this endeavour. Let this be a lesson for all in the execution of our duties as leaders. Gambian politics is undoubtedly in the hands of the women and with patience your support for President Barrow will be meaningful,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>She urged her fellow women to take their positions and political responsibilities seriously.<\/p>\n<p>The presidential adviser on political affairs, Saihou Mballow, said the NPP has transformed the administration of politics in The Gambia with its indigenous ideas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe whole world is now emulating President Barrow for his exemplary leadership and democratic governance,\u201d Mballow said.<\/p>\n<p>He said NPP will embark on a regional tour to sensitise the people and to make sure that there is transparency across the board, adding that each regional bureau will have an account and a copy of the party\u2019s constitution.<\/p>\n<p>As part of events marking the meeting, the outgoing KM chairman Alhagie Ounda Nyang, handed over the baton to his successor Mustapha Touray who will now steer the affairs of the municipality.<\/p>\n<p>In his farewell message, Mr Nyang said it was a pleasure for him to serve the NPP.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Mustapha Touray, commended his predecessor for his service and assured the party that he will live up to expectation.<\/p>\n<p>Nominated Assembly Member, Aja Maimuna Ceesay, said the number one priority of the party should be to tackle the opposition United Democratic Party (UDP).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have failed and regretted what had happened and are always looking for our downfall. Therefore, we have to be alerted as politicians. Sir Dawda Jawara, Yahya Jammeh and President Adama Barrow\u2019s leadership all came as a surprise and the person who will succeed Barrow will come as a surprise too,\u201d said Madam Ceesay. The party also handed over eight motorcycles to each region.<\/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.
