\u201cI will encourage and support women groups to engage in processing and value addition to food products for consumption and export, conduct more civic education to ensure that the sons and daughters of Christians and Muslims and other ethnolinguistic groups would work hand-in-hand as brothers and sisters to develop Banjul North to be an example of tolerance of diversity for Gambia. These would cultural be and done through educational, social, cultural and sporting initiatives.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also plans to initiate annual awards to promote cultural diversity and national unity, thereby strengthening the Crab Island initiative and extend it to other constituencies, sub- regions and beyond.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will encourage the Departments of Wildlife and Tourism to transform the crocodile inhabited area into an eco-tourism location for Banjul for educational, amusement and revenue earning purpose and prevent the reptiles from posing any future threat for human beings or being endangered.\u201d<\/p>\n

In view of the serious challenges posed by climate change especially in the City of Banjul, Sillah is ready to give the people of Banjul and other relevant stakeholders more information regarding the climate change threats emerging from the Atlantic Ocean and on how to nurture and protect the environment.<\/p>\n
