Mr. Seedy Keita, who takes care of money for The Gambia, met with seven important people from the African Development Bank. They talked about working together to help The Gambia grow stronger.
Mr. Keita thanked the Bank for building the Senegambia Bridge. This bridge helps people travel between countries and sell things to each other. The Bank also helped The Gambia make electricity that keeps the air clean.
The Bank gave money to farmers who grow rice. The farmers want to grow enough rice for everyone in The Gambia to eat. Mr. Keita said this helps the country a lot.
The Bank helped make computers work at places where taxes are collected. This made The Gambia collect 75% more money in less than two years! Mr. Keita said they need to find money inside their country instead of constantly asking others for help.
Mr. Keita went to big meetings with other money leaders from Africa. He wants the Bank to help young people who need jobs. Many people in The Gambia are under 25 years old. The government wants to teach them job skills and help women start businesses.
A man named Darkortey Rufus will finish his job at the Bank soon. Another leader named Edmond WEGA said they want to make a new plan to help The Gambia. The Bank thinks The Gambia is doing well with money and wants to help it do even better.
