Gambia Action Party leader Musa Ousainou Yali Batchilly has said minimum monthly take-home under a GAP government will be D30,000.
The GAP leader stated this during an exclusive interview with The Fatu Network.
Batchilly said: “Minimum salary [will be] D30,000. We’re not poor [as a country]. Look at the black sand. The machine that processes the black sand costs $25M. That machine can create over 4,000 employees.
“And the deposit of black sand in Kartong is different from the one in Sanyang. In Gunjur, we have the sulphate, the sand that we can mix with chemical and we have our cement factory. We don’t need to import cement. There are things here [and] if you want to be a leader, you tell your people what they have so that they can believe in themselves.”
