The community of Nianija, with the support of the Kuntaur Area Council, recently embarked on a Tesito (a Mandinka parlance, meaning community service) exercise for the  rehabilitation of a two-kilometer road from Bakadagi to Jailand in the Nianija District, Central River Region North. 

Speaking at the exercise, Alasan David Cham, the chief of Nianija district, commended the people of the district for their positive turn out.

He said government cannot do all for her people, which makes it is also an obligation for citizens to venture into development initiatives.

The Bakadagi-Jailand road, Chief Cham added, was eroded by heavy rains recently.
He thanked Kuntaur Area Council for supporting his community with fuel and cement to facilitate the work there. 
He then revealed that similar works are also underway in Njau and Gui Jahanka.
