The Edward Francis Small Centre for Rights and Justice went to see some hurt people on Tuesday afternoon. The people were at the Ndemban Clinic in Bakau.
On Saturday, there was a bad accident in Kafuta. The team wanted to find out how the victims were doing. They also hoped to learn what kind of help they were getting.
The team met with folks from Kafuta at the clinic. These people were looking after the ones who got injured. In total, 67 people were harmed in the crash. Sadly, three have died.
At the moment, 19 patients are still at Ndemban. They have wounds on their legs, arms, neck, eyes, and all over. Most of them are kids between 8 and 16 years old.
The clinic staff is working very hard, but they do not have enough people or supplies. This makes it tough to give everyone the care they need quickly.
The rights group wants to ensure the patients get good treatment. They are asking the government to send more help to the clinic and for officials to investigate how and why the accident occurred.
The police's handling of traffic is problematic, and the country's roads and cars are not always safe. All of these things need to be examined closely.
The group is calling on many parts of the government to step up. The hurt people are dealing with a lot of pain. Many of them are students who cannot go to school now.
The group thinks the government could do more to assist the victims. They did say one good thing, though. The Brikama Area Council acted fast to get medical aid to the clinic.
The rights center team will keep watching this case. They plan to hold leaders accountable and ensure justice for those who are suffering. Preventing crashes like this in the future is also a key goal.
The group knows the work will not be easy, but they are ready to keep pushing for as long as necessary. In their eyes, nothing matters more than keeping people safe and well.
That is a mission that will continue, no matter what. For the victims of this tragedy and all Gambians, the fight for a better tomorrow goes on.
