Speaking on behalf of the beneficiaries, Alhaji Matarr Ndow, a resident of Banjul South, thanked Hon. Nyang for the gesture. He said Hon. Nyang is doing what is expected of him. "We elected him and he did not fail us, we are proud of him, we will continue to work with him for the development of the constituency and the APRC party,"he stated. Ndow finally called on the people of Banjul South to come together as one and emulate Hon. Nyang.
