United Democratic Party has raised 2.5 million dalasis at a fundraising event organised by UDP chapter in Washington, Seattle.
UDP organising secretary Mayor Talib Ahmed Bensouda in a tweet on Monday revealed the chapter raised 50,000 dollars.
“Your love for Gambia is appreciated,” Mayor Bensouda said in his tweet.
UDP will be one of the biggest political parties to contest the December election and money will play a big role in the party’s activities.
The party recently bought new pickup trucks worth millions of dalasis.
