Gambian government faces criticism over cattle vaccination funding
11/02/2013
Herders in some parts of the country say they have lost as many as 30% of their cattle.
Estimates suggest that a sum of around $700,000 would be enough to fund a vaccination programme. Some reports say that the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation has pledged more than $400,000 for the project. However, the government has appeared reluctant to provide the remaining $300,000.
