You cannot be in your offices every day doing nothing... and at the end of the day you expect to be paid.

Most of the sicknesses we suffer from are from the things we eat.

Despite all odds we have emerged as one people and one country.

What brought the British to the Gambia in the first place - which was bigger than it is now - was trade in ivory because the Gambia had a lot of elephants. They wiped out all the elephants and ended up selling Africans.

I don't believe in killing people. I believe in locking you up for the rest of your life.

I will develop the areas that vote for me, but if you don't vote for me, don't expect anything.
