Tanji Beach leader Lamin Bojang asks President Barrow for more fishing vessels at their landing site to help reduce illegal migration from West Coast Region. He spoke with The Voice about how the current administration had already provided two boats to his committee. Bojang urged Gambians to put politics aside and work together on national development, with youth taking leading roles. He stressed that citizens must build their country themselves rather than waiting for foreigners.
The beach management committee collects one basket of fish daily from each boat arriving at the Tanji landing site for community projects. They share this revenue with fishermen every two months as part of their system. Bojang explained that his group gives ten percent of yearly earnings to the Village Development Committee. This money helps fund local improvements throughout Tanji. The committee maintains this arrangement to ensure fishing benefits extend across the entire community.
