Jawara Receives Global Well-Respected CEOS Awards

Abubakary Jawara, CEO of GACH Global, received the Global Well Respected CEOs Award in Dubai on October 30, 2024. His son and daughter collected the award on his behalf, and they were welcomed in Dubai by the organizers and the Gambian Ambassador in Qatar.

This prestigious recognition highlights his outstanding leadership in mining and philanthropic efforts, making him the first Gambian to achieve this honor. The award ceremony, organized by Business Executive Limited, celebrates CEOs who demonstrate innovation and resilience in their fields. Jawara expressed that this accolade not only honors him but also elevates Gambia’s international presence, inspiring others to pursue excellence. “I want to make it abundantly clear that I don’t lobby for these awards. I will just sit and receive a call that I am nominated based on a certain because of what I have done here and there so this one is recognizing my philanthropic work,” he said. He thanks the organizers for recognizing his little efforts and the Gambian people for their continued love and admiration. Jawara said he is not expecting that everybody will like but he hates nobody, arguing that his critics misunderstood him.
