Maitre Wade is da man! Unlike his peers in the region, he loves rather
humbling ventures such as the "Trans-Gambia Tunnel'. The kind of
rhetoric that makes our own Jilanka "Baabili Mansa" (the king who builds
bridges) feel a little earthly.
But assuming all goes well and little Gambia realize the dream of
doubling crop production. Would it make any real difference to the poor
farmer in Sare Mankamang Kunda in the absence of access to markets?

The Islamic Development Bank (IDB) will soon set up a regional
artificial rain system in Africa at the request of some African
countries, with the installation of antennas in Mali and Senegal ,
Senegalese President Abdoulaye Wade said here on Sunday evening.
He said the artificial rain antennas would address the African
agricultural shortcomings, especially poor rainfall. In a declaration on
the global food crisis, President Wade said the measure would help
tackle the food crisis and prevent hunger. He identified other
constraints facing African farmers as lack of developed lands, inputs,
equipment and seeds.
The Gambia Journal has learnt that one of the artificial rain antennas
to be set up in Mali will cover Niger and Mali , while the second one to
be set up in Senegal will serve Mauritania , Guinea Bissau, Senegal and
The Gambia.
