RESIDENT UNHAPPY WITH NEW BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION IN GAMBIA
Resident of Sabi Ward Development Committee (WDC) has raised concerned over the construction of the new Kumbija bridge in Fulladu East District, Upper River Region (URR) in Gambia.
Speaking to the media, the Secretary-General of Sabi WDC, Hagi Suwaneh said the region is unhappy with the splitting of the road as well as how the contract was awarded.
According to Suwaneh, a notice was not issued about the road splitting plus the contractors were given the contract without having a round table discussion with the committee.
Quoting Suwaneh, “When the said project was announced and the time it was about to start, almost every inhabitant of the surrounding communities was delighted to receive the good news including the Ward’s WDC,”
He also noted that neither the Ward councilor nor the WDC was informed or involved in the process which was not in line with the guidelines of the National Road Authority.
