Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly and Deputy Spokesperson of the National People\u2019s Party (NPP), Seedy Njie, has said that citizens from other African countries are often astonished by the pace of development and progress taking place in The Gambia under the leadership of President Adama Barrow.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen people from other African countries come to The Gambia for meetings, they often ask, \u2018How is your president managing to achieve all this?\u2019\u201d Njie told a gathering.<\/p>\n

He recounted instances where visitors from Senegal, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea-Conakry, and Co\u0302te d\u2019Ivoire expressed amazement at the scope of ongoing projects, questioning how the president secures the resources to deliver such results.<\/p>\n

Njie commended President Barrow for what he described as prudent management of national resources, contrasting his administration\u2019s performance with that of former presidents Sir Dawda Jawara and Yahya Jammeh.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is the same country that was governed by previous administrations\u2014without oil or diamonds\u2014yet no president has achieved the level of development that President Barrow is delivering,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

The Deputy Speaker made these remarks at the president\u2019s residence in Mankamang Kunda during a meeting with residents from the Upper River Region (URR) and Lower River Region (LRR).<\/p>\n

Njie also cautioned citizens against individuals, he said are attempting to discredit the president\u2019s work and sow discord among Gambians.<\/p>\n
