Editor,

Pease, allow me space to express my delight about the good work of an individual that has been contributing immensely in the development efforts of this country of ours. What makes it so special is that this person is not Gambian. I am talking about one Dr Anya of the School of Medicine, University of the Gambia (UTG).

As part of a team of Doctors serving in the various sectors of the Gambia's social and infrastructural development, Dr Anya has demonstrated an unrelenting level of passion to his duty.

I choose to refer to this man because his attitude sharply contrasts those of many people in this country. Many of whom are, in fact, bonafide Gambians. It makes me wonder how somebody like Dr Anya could demonstrate such a loyalty that not even some Gambians can. I therefore want to take this opportunity to appeal to Gambians to change their attitude. It does not matter what your qualification is in serving your country to the maximum. What matters is your loyalty, patriotism and concern.
