President Adama Barrow joint other Heads of State and government to attend Nigeria’s Democracy Day celebration, scheduled for Wednesday, 12th June 2019 in Abuja.

Mr. Buhari was amongst the key players in negotiating a peaceful end to the political impasse in The Gambia after the 2016 Presidential Elections in which President Adama Barrow was democratically elected into office.  President Barrow has expressed commitment to work with President Buhari, in the promotion of peace, stability and regional integration.

In another message, President Barrow has extended felicitations to Dr. Mamadou Tangara, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, International Cooperation, and Gambians Abroad for his achievement as a recipient of the 2019 United Nation Population Award laureate in recognition of his commitment to peace, sustainable development and diplomacy.

The president has expressed pride that the UN has recognized Minister Tangara’s contribution in conflict prevention at a time when our country was at a decisive moment to either embrace democracy through a non-violent means or plung into chaos.

The Gambia’s Ambassador to Brussels and the European Union, Her Excellency, Madam Teneng Mba Jaiteh on behalf of her family and the Mission has extended congratulatory message to His Excellency President Adama Barrow on the celebration of the Muslim feast of Eid Al-Fitr, expressing best wishes, felicitations and prayers for continued blessings of the President, his family and the people of The Gambia.
