Gambian philanthropist donates to Tanka-Tanka

Pa Dodou M.E. Jallow, a Gambian based in Holland yesterday donated some medical gadgets to the Tanka-Tanka Psychiatric hospital in Brusubi.

The equipment included a digital blood pressure machine and two stethoscopes for the inmates.

Speaking at the presentation, Mr. Jallow said he deemed it necessary to support the Gambian psychiatric hospital as this is his home country.

Jallow, who is also a staff of GGZ Central Institute (Psychiatric Section) in Holland, added: “My institution gives us the possibility of supporting mentally imbalance people, so being a Gambian national I found it to be something of priority.”

He disclosed that the gadgets worth roughly about three hundred euro (€300), noting that more donations for the hospital are in the pipeline.

Jallow finally called on other Gambian based abroad to support sectors in The Gambia.
