A Beautiful Morning Greeting to all my beloved followers, believers, and well-wishers. ☀️✨

On this wonderful Thursday morning in the coastal fishing village of Tanji, I rise with pride as a son of this vibrant and hardworking community.

There has long been a belief that teachers often lack a sense of fashion—especially when dressed for work. But I strongly challenge that notion. I believe teachers should confidently embrace style, because we are the immediate role models for our students. The way we present ourselves sends a powerful message to the young minds we nurture every day.

Therefore, starting today, I proudly position myself as an advocate in calling upon the Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education to consider introducing a clothing allowance for teachers in The Gambia, just like in many other countries around the world. Our educators deserve to look good, feel good, and represent excellence in every aspect!

Wishing everyone a blessed and productive day. Let’s elevate the outlook—inspired by our environment and perfected by our style. 👔✨

HEAD BOY AND HEAD GIRL ELECTIONS AT TANJI LOWER BASIC SCHOOL- OCTOBER 31st, 2025.

Today, October 31st, 2025, marked a remarkable day at Tanji Lower Basic School as students took part in the Head Boy and Head Girl selection for the 2025–2026 academic year. Pupils from all classes lined up enthusiastically to show solidarity with their preferred candidates, demonstrating unity, discipline, and democratic spirit.

This year’s election saw thousands of pupils casting their votes to choose the next student leaders who will represent them throughout the academic year.

For the Head Boy position, it was an unopposed race, with Ebrima Nasso emerging as the new Head Boy.

The Head Girl contest featured two strong and inspiring candidates — Mariama Sunna and Hasatou Sowe. After a fair and transparent voting process, Mariama Sunna emerged victorious with 515 votes, while Hasatou Sowe secured 352 votes respectively.

The votes were carefully counted and verified in the presence of Mr. Sanneh, Mr. Darboe (Master), Mr. Darboe Jr., and Mr. Ansu Touray, ensuring transparency and fairness throughout the process.

We wish to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all students for peacefully exercising their democratic rights and to the teachers for their guidance and commitment in facilitating a smooth and successful election process.

Congratulations to our new student leaders — we look forward to your leadership and service to the school community!

Big shout out to my newest top fans! 💎
