Ceesay Explains Why He Decided To Run For Chairmanship

The Nationals People’s Party candidate for Brikama Area Council Seedy Ceesay, on Tuesday explained why he decided to run for chairmanship and why he left his business and journalism work to join politics.

I decided to throw my hat in the ring to become the next Chairman of Brikama Area Council, because I wish to join those in public office who want to drive the rhetoric of new Gambia to its reality, its fulfillment.” He said
