Jainaba Bah said her first priority is to unite residents of West Coast, as she believes that without unity there can't be any meaningful development.
"Unity is the key thing I want to bring in WCR so that all will work together irrespective of one's tribe, political difference or religion," she told journalists shortly after presenting her nomination documents at the Brikama IEC office.
Madam Bah also outlined empowerment initiatives and that BAC will empower youth and women of the region to ensure they attain their aspirations and to be productive citizens.
She, however, remains optimistic that she will emerge victorious in the forthcoming May 20th Mayoral and Chairmanship elections.
