Basse Manneh Kunda completed restoration of its traditional village square during a recent ceremony in the Upper River Region. Local authorities and residents from nearby communities attended the event that featured community cleansing activities. The restored meeting place will enable elders and young people to gather for discussing village matters and settling disputes. Alkalo Lasana Manneh acknowledged contributions from the Village Development Committee and diaspora supporters who funded the project.

Chairman Nfally Manneh of the Manneh Development Association called the renovation both historic and transformative for residents. The square forms part of larger development plans for the village and provides rest areas for visitors. Griot Jalimusa Suso explained the site's four-century role in community decision-making and defense planning. Traditional performances marked the celebration while women and youth participated in village-wide cleaning efforts. The project demonstrates how communities can preserve cultural heritage while pursuing modern development goals.
