Tuesday, March 18, 2008
At least 200 members of the Farrafenni Civil Servants Association on Saturday embarked on a massive cleansing exercise at the AFPRC General Hospital in Farafenni.
The purpose of the exercise was to promote the quality of life and socio-economic welfare of the community of Farafenni and its surroundings and indeed to make the hospital look more decent.
Speaking at the exercise, Lamin Bondi, the principal nursing officer at the AFPRC General Hospital expressed gratitude and appreciation to the members of FCSA for rendering such an effective community service to the hospital. He described the hospital as a meeting centre for many.
Mr Bondi used the opportunity to heap praise on the soldiers of Farafenni Barracks and the people of Yallal-ba Village for their tireless efforts and services in contributing their quota in the cleanliness of the hospital. He also thanked the Farrafenni Army Barracks for supplying the hospital with firewood and other necessary support.
Demba BT Sambou, chairman of the FCSA said their initiative to embark on the exercise is part of their social interventions noting that his association will continue to undertake any activity that is geared towards the development of The Gambia.
He thanked NAWEC Farafenni branch, Kerewan Area Council, security forces and the people of Yallal-ba for their continued support in nation building.
According to him, government alone cannot do everything, “we must complement its effort which can only be possible through joint concerted efforts,” he said.
For her part, Ya-Fatou Jagne, the public relations officer of the FCSA paid special tribute to President Yahya Jammeh for initiating the Operation-Clean-the-Nation, which she said benefits the country. She emphasised the importance of forming an association and the need for people to work together which she described as the back bone of unity.
Jarrika Bah, the Alkalo of Yallal-ba thanked the members of the association and wished them success.
Other speakers included Yamadou Bah and Pateh Bah staff of MRC and also members of the FCSA.
