Urban Youth-Led Cleaning System Project Banjul

The Urban Youth-Led Cleaning System continues to advance steadily across the city, with dedicated youth teams maintaining operations and reinforcing the standards we have set for a cleaner and more orderly Banjul.

Streets, corridors, and public spaces continue to receive attention, while the waste bins placed across the city are being actively monitored and emptied by the assigned tricycles and personnel, ensuring the system remains responsive and effective.

The dedication and discipline of the teams on the ground remain commendable. Their consistency is making a visible difference, and the effort to keep Banjul clean and presentable continues with determination.

Cleaning operations continued steadily today across the city, with teams maintaining a consistent presence on the ground and reinforcing the progress already achieved. Streets, corridors, and public spaces have received careful attention as part of the ongoing effort to keep Banjul orderly, dignified, and presentable for all who live, work, and move through the city.

As we draw closer to the inauguration of the Crab Island Sustainable Development Centre, particular attention has also been directed toward the facility and its surroundings. Teams have been actively working around the premises, ensuring that the environment reflects the significance of this important milestone for our city.

These preparations form part of a broader commitment to uphold high standards across Banjul, especially around key public spaces and facilities that will soon host important moments for our community.

Work across the city continued today with steady coordination and focused engagement. Teams were strategically deployed across key streets and public spaces, ensuring that established standards are consistently upheld.

Previously serviced areas were maintained to preserve progress, while high-traffic zones received the necessary attention to prevent setbacks. The approach remains structured and proactive, guided by routine supervision and clear task allocation.

The presence on the ground reflects organization and accountability. Roles are clearly defined, movement is coordinated, and the visible improvements across zones demonstrate sustained effort rather than one-off intervention.

Progress is built through consistency. Daily engagement, maintenance, and oversight remain central to ensuring that gains made are protected and strengthened.

The work continues, steady, structured, and sustained.

Clean City. Empowered Youth. Lasting Impact.

Work continues across the city with visible and measurable results. Today’s operations included routine sweeping and maintenance of key streets, while teams also attended to the public waste bins strategically placed across various locations.

The bins, which have seen significant use in recent days, were filled, a clear indication that residents and visitors are increasingly making use of proper disposal points. Assigned tricycles and personnel were deployed to empty them promptly, ensuring that overflow is avoided and the surrounding areas remain clean and orderly.

This cycle — placement, usage, collection, and timely emptying reflects a system that is functioning as intended. Infrastructure alone is not enough; consistent servicing is what sustains cleanliness.

The visible use of the bins shows growing awareness. The timely emptying shows operational readiness. Together, they demonstrate progress.

Work continues across the city with discipline and resolve. With many team members observing Ramadan through daily fasting from dawn to sunset, and others journeying through Lent in reflection and sacrifice, the physical and spiritual demands of this season are significant.

Yet the standard has not shifted.

Street sweeping, clearing of corridors, and maintaining public spaces were carried out with steady focus and coordination. The dedication shown on the ground today deserves special commendation. Working under the strain of fasting, heat, and physical exertion requires more than routine effort, it requires character, resilience, and genuine commitment to service.

This season calls for sacrifice and discipline, and those values were clearly reflected in the way the teams conducted themselves. The city benefits not only from cleaner streets, but from the spirit of responsibility being demonstrated daily.

Work continues across the city, and today required real strength and discipline. With many team members observing Ramadan and others journeying through Lent, the physical demands were significant. Fasting while carrying out street sweeping, waste collection, and the clearing of corridors and public spaces is no small responsibility.

Despite these challenges, the teams remained steady and focused. Operations moved forward across key streets and inner areas with coordination and purpose, reinforcing the standards that have been established. There were no excuses, only commitment.

This season calls for sacrifice, restraint, and service, and those values were reflected clearly in the effort shown on the ground. True dedication is revealed not in comfort, but in perseverance.

Work continues across the city under our adjusted seasonal schedule, reflecting commitment, discipline, and respect for this sacred period observed by many in our nation.

As Muslims observe the holy month of Ramadan and our Christian brothers and sisters journey through the reflective season of Lent, teams remain on the ground carrying out street sweeping, waste collection, clearing of corridors, and maintaining public spaces across key areas of the city.

Despite fasting and the spiritual demands of this season, the dedication does not waver. Operations have been thoughtfully structured to accommodate observance while ensuring that cleanliness standards remain high. The schedule may adjust, but the responsibility remains constant.

Ramadan and Lent both call for sacrifice, reflection, humility, and service. In that spirit, keeping our streets clean and our public spaces orderly becomes more than routine work, it becomes a shared act of civic duty.

Work intensified as teams placed special focus on the Independence Day venue at McCarthy Square and its surrounding areas.

Recognizing the importance of this historic ground for the national celebrations, coordinated efforts were directed towards thoroughly clearing the Square, its immediate surroundings, adjoining streets, walkways, and open grounds. Sweeping, waste removal, and detailed cleaning were carried out to ensure the area is orderly, dignified, and ready for the occasion.

McCarthy Square is more than just a venue, it is a symbol of national pride and collective memory. Preparing it properly reflects respect for the moment and for the country. The surrounding streets and corridors were equally attended to, reinforcing the commitment to present the city in its best condition.

As we mark this milestone, we extend warm wishes to all citizens at home and abroad.
