Africell just stepped up big time for The Gambia Prison Services by giving them much-needed food and kitchen supplies. During a Tuesday event at Mile 2 Central Prison, they handed over large cooking pots, rice, oil, sugar, and other essential items. Prison staff have struggled to feed inmates properly, making this help come at just the right time for everyone involved.
Musa Cisse from Africell's corporate team spoke about how the company wants to support people who need help most. He said they firmly believe every person deserves basic dignity and necessities regardless of their situation. That's exactly why Africell decided to ensure inmates could eat decent meals daily. The prison officials gratefully accepted everything and took turns thanking Africell repeatedly for their generous support.
Modou Jarju serves as deputy director of GPS and discussed the many problems facing their facilities. He asked other companies to follow Africell's example and lend a hand. He pointed out that Mile 2 faces serious issues with overcrowding and limited resources, which makes food preparation particularly hard. This donation should make daily meal service run much more smoothly for both staff and inmates.
Presidential youth adviser Lamin K Saidy praised Africell for taking their community responsibilities seriously. He mentioned several plans the presidential team has created to fix problems in public institutions across the country. Special presidential adviser Hendry Gomez also spoke highly of the prison department workers and asked Africell to consider helping inmates learn job skills. The event wrapped up with a quick tour around the prison and the formal handover of all donated items.
This donation adds to the many community projects Africell runs throughout The Gambia, showing how the company truly cares about local development. Their support reminds everyone how businesses can play a vital role in helping those living on society's margins. The prison system faces many challenges, but partnerships like this one bring real improvements to the lives of those behind bars.
