The people of Lower River Region on Saturday met with the president at State House.
Speaking on the meeting, the president said he will continue to work with the region’s representatives to bring the much needed development.
The president said on his official Facebook page Sunday: “Thank you to the people of Lower River Region for standing in solidarity with the development aspirations of my government. I was truly happy to receive you in your thousands.
“Your region has been neglected for far too long but I promise that will no longer be the case. In fact, no region of the country deserves to be punished or isolated from national development for the political views they hold.
“I’ll continue to work with your representatives and local authorities to bring the much needed development. Together we shall build The Gambia we want!”
