President Adama Barrow attended a special meeting at the courts in Banjul yesterday. Many important people came to start the new year by making laws and helping people be fair.

President Barrow told everyone he wanted The Gambia to be a country where people treat each other well. He said his team works hard to improve the courts. They bought new computers and special tools to help judges work faster and make better choices.

The man who helps make laws, Dawda Jallow, talked about what they did last year. His team worked very hard to stop people from hurting others. They told everyone it was wrong to hurt women and girls. They started using computers to keep track of court cases, which made everything easier to understand.

Mr. Jallow said they want to help people who suffered bad things in the past. The government made a five-year plan to make things right. They want to build a special court with help from other African countries.

The head judge, Hassan Jallow, shared some numbers about court cases. When 2024 started, they had 6,317 cases waiting. Then, more people came to court with problems. By the end of the year, they had 12,995 cases! That means many more people needed help from the courts than the year before.

The head judge thinks they need to find new ways to help people fix their problems without coming to court. Sometimes, people can talk to each other and make things better without a judge. This might help because the courts have many cases to handle.
