As the Gambia looks toward the future, the role of political leaders like Hon. Kandeh is crucial in shaping a prosperous and united nation. The celebration was not only a time to commemorate the past, but also to discuss and plan for the future of The Gambia, ensuring that the hard-won freedoms and democratic values continue to thrive.
