Do you realise that in Gambia, you can buy something at a shop in morning, then return a few hours later to buy exact same thing, only to be told price has changed?
You wonder whether prices are attached to ticking of the clock, rising as the hours go by.

May this blessed Friday bring ease to every heart carrying a heavy burden. For those going through hardship, financial struggles, unanswered prayers, silent battles, may Allah replace your pain with relief, your confusion with clarity.
Normally, “Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilayhi Raji’un” makes you think of death. Today, after Zuhur prayers, an Imam asked for prayers for his young daughter, allegedly kidnapped on her way home from school. The mosque fell silent. May Allah grant her safe return. Arrr doi na warr!!

What happens when stages, tents and even Zimba take over major roads for cultural events, drums, traffic blocked, users improvising with no notice?
Was police informed? Any permit, or are we just improvising on public roads?

Imagine struggling for 30+ years, saving every hard-earned dalasi to buy land in The Gambia 😔
Just when you’re ready to build, you discover same land was sold to multiple people claiming ownership.
Your dream home suddenly becomes endless court battle.
Arrr… doi na warr daal.
How on earth do you sit in your car, eat comfortably…
Then roll down the window and throw everything on the highway? 😭
Now the wind is spreading it all over the road for everyone to see.
In The Gambia, some things we do are really worrying.
Arrr… doi na warr daal.
Reflecting on how many young Gambians see Europe as everything…
take dangerous journeys chasing dreams
Meanwhile, some stay, through limited opportunities, still push to make it here.
That same belief… even our Hala Madrid fan carries it proudly on his car
Arrr… doi na warr
