"In the 2013-2014 school year, more communities will receive customised donkey carts to enable more children to reach school. Those numbers will mean an increase on the 1,842 children who already enjoy on a daily basis the services of this innovative means of transportation" (Nana Grey-Johnson, Gambia's Minister of Information).
Wow! We are talking about customized donkey carts. Folks, this is very unfortunate. I have nothing against donkey, horse or bull carts. I have used all as a youth to help transport things around. But donkey carts as a way of transporting students to school sounds like ridiculous. How many donkey carts? How many donkeys? How many drivers? How many students ? How many trips? How much do you pay the transporters? I guess unless these questions are answered, it looks like this minister is just buying time in his position.
Best regards,
Yero
