So therefore, I’d love to seek advice from him. “I have a wealth of knowledge and experience and I wanted to be part of the development and advancement of the Gambia. “I am looking at the areas of development which I want to contribute to children’s education and health to save the life of the Gambian people because a healthy nation is a wealthy nation “The Gambia gave me free education and it is because of my education that I have achieved my wealth. So I decided that I must give back to my country,” she said. Madam Cole has been a regular donor fin many causes.   “In 2003 I donated 130 thousand pounds to refurbish EFSTH.”]]>
