The Gambia passed leadership of the fishing commission to Guinea after serving two years as chairman. Minister Musa Drammeh spoke at the ceremony held in Dakar, Senegal during the group's 40th birthday celebration. He thanked all member countries for supporting Gambia during their time running the Sub-regional Fisheries Commission. The minister said his country made major progress during their leadership period. They strengthened laws and created better plans to protect fish populations across the region.

Drammeh highlighted how they fought harder against illegal fishing boats that steal resources from local communities. The commission approved a new five-year plan that runs from 2025 to 2029. This plan helps prepare for the 2030 deadline when world leaders will review progress on development goals. The organization has gained new energy and started important projects about shared fishing areas. Member countries need to pay their dues regularly to keep the commission strong and independent.

The outgoing leader expressed confidence that Guinea will continue the good work they started. He promised Gambia would help the new chairperson succeed during their term. The handover happened during the 22nd meeting of fisheries ministers from member nations. Guinea accepted the responsibility to lead the commission forward. The event marked both an ending and a new beginning for regional cooperation on fishing matters.
