Imam Baba Leigh wants everyone running The Gambia to answer for their actions. The well-known Islamic teacher told this message during his holiday speech. He asked the president, government officials, and religious leaders to respect God through honest behavior. Many know Baba Leigh because he faced jail and abuse for speaking against the previous president.

The religious leader argued that Muslims must be satisfied with what they have. He pointed out that corruption occurs throughout government offices, yet hardly anyone is punished. Just one official from the fisheries department went to court, despite his case seeming small compared to others. Money from taxes should build hospitals, fix roads, and create schools instead of making leaders rich.

Baba Leigh explained that Islam forbids using public money for yourself. He wants everyone from regular parents to high-ranking officials to remember their duty to God. The respected teacher serves as part of the National Human Rights Commission, showing his commitment beyond just religious matters.

He also expressed concern about the increase in prostitution in The Gambia. Baba Leigh believes that families should teach their children better values, especially their daughters. His message pushed for better moral standards in political leadership and home life, connecting personal faith with public responsibility.
