President Adama Barrow opened the College of Science and Engineering at USET in Brikama.
This is an important step for education in The Gambia. He noted that the late Vice President Badara Alieu Joof had attended the foundation ceremony.
The new campus will provide advanced resources to support innovation and skills development through international cooperation.
This project helps the government improve STEM education, offer specialized services locally, and boost economic growth.
The Criminal Offences Act and Criminal Procedures Act, assented to by President Barrow on March 28, 2025, reform colonial-era laws in The Gambia, but provisions on sedition, publication bans, and false information raise concerns about freedom of expression and require further amendments.
