We have organised several events like this, and Senegalese and Ghanaian troops have all organised activities like this, and it is meant to show our love and appreciation to the people of the Gambia. We want to demonstrate to the world that we are all about love and unity,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He commended the young doctors from The Gambia and Nigeria who are studying in Banjul for supporting them in providing medical support to people.
