Thank you folks at the Gambia Democratic Fund for your generous donation. On behalf of the U.D.P. Diaspora – USA Chapter I would also like to take the opportunity to thank all those individuals who contributed by offering prayer/’du’a’, donated cash and other resources to support the noble cause. Your support is an added source of inspiration for the party leader and the entire militants at the frontlines.
