Editor,

Kindly allow me space in your reputable paper to praise a true daughter of the land, in the person of Hon Fatoumata Jahumpa-Ceesay, the speaker of the National Assembly of The Gambia.

Apart from the numerous changes she has initiated in the House, not only in terms of its operation, but also in terms of the interaction between the various political divides, Hon Cessay has done quite well raising the flag of The Gambia out and beyond.

During her tenure of office, the country has held a number of prominent positions that Africa as a continent does not normally have the privilege to hold. This, I think, is a commendable performance by this lady of exceptional ability.

I call on members of the House to continue giving her the support she rightly needs in her endeavours, as whatever she gains is for all Gambians, regardless of our affiliations.
