Mrs Juka Fatou Jabang, the former director general of MDI and now the advisor to the executive director of African Development Bank Group, has joined a list of personalities in congratulating President Alhaji Dr Yahya Jammeh on the 14 anniversary of the July 22 Revolution, which was celebrated last month in grand style.
In a letter to the Gambian leader, Mrs Jabang stated: “I continue to recall with gratification, the laudable manner in which the 1994 Revolution ushered in its wake, unprecedented national development and advances in the socio-economic arena. I also note with great delight, the manner in which the peaceful take-over has over the years, positively transformed the perception and world view of the Gambian citizenry, instilling in them the core values of patriotism and self-worth.”
She then added: “As we celebrate this great day, I pray that Allah continues to bless and guide you, your family and the people of The Gambia. I also pray for your personal good health and well-being so that we may perpetually enjoy your unique and exemplary leadership, and be assured of a stable and prosperous country.
Please accept Your Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration and esteem.”

This has galvanised the maxim, on that rainy Friday morning of 22nd July [of] a soldier with a difference. Mr President I speak with the least fear of contradiction that you are really the Hero of the 21st Century in Africa.”
Mr Cham-Joof then prayed: “I pray that Allah, whom we serve [will] protect and guide you with renewed strength and wisdom to implement your programmes and projects through Vision 2020 onwards to Vision 2121 with best wishes for your long life, good health and wealth and your family.
