quote:
"“I have told President Jammeh, I have told some Ministers, who are my friends, that you need to speak west because it’s like a language. It’s like Italian, French, whatever. West is a language. And many Presidents in Africa speak west very well. They “gonna” tell us what we “wanna” hear—with language and style. I think a little softening of the message,” she said as GRTS host Fatou Camara, and her audience ran into laughter."
"“People warned me about what I said to the President but I have never been careful,” the Ambassador jokingly said. The audience then ran into laughter."
"“There is a new food security initiative, only five countries this year were approved, and Gambia was among those countries. They will be getting about $28 Million dollars. I was asked personally whether or not that was a good investment and I absolutely said yes,” she said adding that advancing Gambia’s agriculture and women empowerment is a top priority for the US Government.

I think that the US is at last doing something right,and I hope they will continue to consider The Gambia as a worthwhile country to help advance in the future after the departure of US Ambassador Pamela Ann White, who has apparently worked very hard and unobtrusively behind the scenes on the diplomatic front.
