Savage said among the aims and objectives of the society is to help alleviate poverty among women and children in Banjul. She said the society would be looking at ways of helping vulnerable women and children in the society and that they are all ready to rally behind the APRC party in the upcoming presidential elections.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Yankuba Colley, the national mobiliser for APRC, thanked the women of Banjul for coming up with such an initiative. He said the society could do a lot in Banjul including enhancing unity among the people of the city. Mayor Colley then asserted that women know their own needs and those of the children in society more than men. He then applauded the Njeck Society members for the initiative. The national mobiliser called on the society to emulate other women societies in the country in terms of support to the APRC party. &#8220;You may encounter hurdles on the way, but you can do well if you come together,&#8221; he asserted.<\/p>\n<p>Other speakers at the meeting included Bakary Jaiteh, admin secretary No.2 who appealed to the group to put away personal interest and work together for the progress of the APRC party.
