It was indeed a pleasure working with all of you .
You are all intelligent and independent with mighty heart and brain.
I want to Thank each and everyone that stand by us in good and bad times .
Thank you all

In another development, Lamin K. Saidy, adviser to the movement has also tendered his resignation.
Dear Madam President Resignation I write to tender my resignation as an adviser to the President Barrow Youth for National Development.
When I accepted this responsibility few months ago in the spirit of providing my little support to youth empowerment initiatives never has a day gone by which I regretted my past decision.
However, over the past months the nation is divided in opinion about the formation of such a group attributing it to politics. To many, it has the potential of undermining democratic principles on which our newfound democracy is built on.
Personally, I have not seen anything suggesting the above assumptions for now. However, as someone working with civil society, my conduct will have a direct bearing with the credibility of my organisation thus the need for my resignation.
This decision is personal but closely linked to my professional undertaking.
I appreciate the opportunity given to me and wish you all best of luck. I will always be a call away when needed. You all have my undying respect…
Sincerely yours,
Lamin K.Saidy
