Gambia part of their own. Nollywood and Ghollywood have been able to
capture and tell our stories better than any outsider can do. Africans
relate to your stories and same with those in the diaspora and the
carribeans and around the world. He urged the stars not to rest on their
oars but take it as a big challenge to do more and add value to what
they are already doing. You are great African ambassadors he said and
you must continue to achieve and surpass what you have today you have
made us proud. He told them to See themselves as Gambians and take
