Following a referendum in 1970, The Gambia became a republic in the Commonwealth of Nations. In contrast to many other new African states, The Gambia preserved democracy and remarkable political stability in its early years of independence. Since the mid-1970s large numbers of Gambians have migrated from rural to urban areas, resulting in high urban unemployment and overburdened services. The PPP demonstrated an interest in expanding the agricultural sector, but droughts in the late 1970s and early 1980s prompted a serious decline in agricultural production and a rise in inflation. In 1978, The Gambia entered into an agreement with Senegal to develop the Gambia River and its basin. Improvements in infrastructure and a heightened popular interest by outsiders in the country (largely because of the overwhelming popularity of Alex Haley's epic novel

Extractions: SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER ANDAHA, Nigeria The village was hot and steamy, the clouds thick with the threat of rain, as Abel Eigege stopped to check up on water safety and disease eradication programs. More than half of the people in the village are infected with the parasite schistosoma, the cause of so-called snail fever. Most contracted the disease as children, picking up the parasite as they swam or bathed in water with infected snails. Eigege sadly held up a child's urine sample, noting the blood. A village health care worker with the Carter Center's Global 2000 program uses a makeshift yardstick to estimate the weight of a boy in Andaha, Nigeria, so a proper dose of praziquantel can be dispensed to treat snail fever. Mike Urban / Seattle Post-Intelligencer Click for larger photo "The disease disables and makes them more susceptible to other disease, like malaria," he said. Working with local volunteers, Eigege dispensed tablets of praziquantel to the infected using a yardstick he designed to help villagers match height to body weight. "He's about 1 1/2 tablets tall," Eigege said as he held the stick up to one young boy.
