Dear Esteemed Students,

This moment serves as a reminder of the importance of advancing gender equality and creating spaces where women can lead, participate, and influence the future of our student body.
As we celebrate women in leadership, we proudly spotlight those who consistently demonstrate courage, competence, and commitment to service within our student community. Among them is Isatou Bah,our aspirant for the position of *Auditor General. Her aspiration reflects the growing strength and voice of women in student governance.
Her willingness to serve stands as a testament to the belief that empowering women in leadership strengthens our Union and enriches the future of our university community.

*Revered Students of the University of The Gambia,*
I, Ismaila Fadera, a 400-level Development Studies student at the School of Arts and Sciences; current President of the Social Sciences and Humanities Studentsโ Association (SoSHSA); recipient of Youth of the Year Award (2023); Youth Impact Award (2024) and Youth Ambassador of the year (2025), hereby formally declare my intent to contest for the position of President in the forthcoming UTGSU elections under the banner of the transformative UTG Inter-School Alliance for Change.
Serving as President of SoSHSA, one of the largest and most vibrant student associations at the University of The Gambia, has given me the opportunity to engage directly with the realities, aspirations and concerns of students. Through this role, I have worked to strengthen student representation, advocate for academic and welfare interests and promote a culture of inclusive and accountable leadership.
My leadership journey has been guided by the belief that student leadership must always be rooted in service, responsibility and collective progress. The experiences gained through leading a diverse and dynamic student body have prepared me to contribute meaningfully to a stronger, more responsive Studentsโ Union.
I believe the UTG Studentsโ Union must continue to stand as a united voice for students; championing their welfare, protecting their interests and creating opportunities that empower them to thrive academically and socially. It is with this conviction that I step forward to offer my service and leadership to the broader student community.
I therefore call on all students to rally behind this vision as we work together to build a progressive, inclusive and student-centered Union.
