A proud Gambian son from Bureng, Muhammed went through the Gambia College, and later to University of The Gambia where he holds a Bachelor’s Degree in English (Major) and Human Resources Management (Minor). He officially joined the Gambia Police Force in 2022 as a Cadet Assistant Superintendent (ASP), a moment marked by hard work, discipline, passion, and professionalism.

His leadership skills are rooted in the selfless services he rendered at the Gambia College and University of The Gambia, having served as the Public Relations Officer at both institutions, and, currently serving as the Assistant Secretary General of the Union of Gambian Scholars in North America (UGSNA) in the United States of America.‎
