When the then 29-year old military officer Lt Yaya Jammeh and his gang of Bandits disrupted the peace, tranquility and democracy in the little but smiling Nation, they enjoyed the benefit of the doubt from innocent Gambia and her people even though ALL what they had advanced to be the reason for that treasonous usurpation of power came out to be untrue. These bunch of poorly mannered and poisonous serpents first brutalized, robbed to enrich themselves before Yaya one-by-one eliminated all of them to create a wider more comfortable space for himself at the expense of every Gambian, to continue brutalize and amass riches and wealth.
Twenty-two years on, Yaya still wants to own and expense the Gambia and her people like a personal property. WE LET! Because we let, we MUST stop!
YAYA JAMMEH DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOU AND YOURS AND HE IS WILLING TO USE YOU TO KILL AND DIE FOR HIM BUT HE WILL NEVER DIE FOR YOU!
YOU, and your family are more than indentured slaves for Jammeh and his Tsar ambition. It is insulting and unfathomable that Yaya will let loose his animals of absolutely no intellect or intelligence to rudely manhandle our most respected and most vulnerable - Elderly men, women and young ladies. There has not been a crime or a wrong that Jammeh did not do to Gambia. This STRANGER in our midst has become a cancer that is beyond treatment. There is not a fabric of our society that has remained the same since Jammeh was birthed. No respect, love and care for any body or institution. The Family, The Church, The Mosque all have been adultrated and infected with the lowest form of indecency. Dirtied beyond cleansing. Morally decayed and left for dead. ALL the making of a fatherless child.
Since 1994, starting with the blatant disrespect and disgrace of the First Republic politicians and lifelong civil servants, this little bastards sow seeds of discord and distrust. They divided us as they set out to achieve what they had set out to do. Nobody got spared, and we condoned.
The latest assault on decency should be the last. That people peacefully congregating to express dissent in broad daylight could be picked up without resistance, to be followed by reported torture and alleged death is not only unGambian but inconceivable. For that to be followed by the rude interruption and forceful arrest of elders and respected figures in our country in the persons of Lawyer Darboe, Hon Kemeseng Jammeh, Hon M. Sanneh, Femi Peters, and a host of people who commit no crime, to have sent DAYS in detention and the Gambia remains the same is, worrying. The visuals of fatherless kids in uniform beating and throwing unarmed folks in trucks in the streets was enough to force a stop to this illness. These security forces come from homes. Even if claims that some of them are not Gambian were to true, majority of our men and women in uniform are Gambians. They are My, Yours and Ousainou's sons, nephews, etc. AND THEY STAND AND WATCH? Sadly, For what they have been arrested for was what we saw on TV when Yaya returned to the country and his party mobilized an even larger crowd to welcome him in a procession more vile and violent. How is there one set of law and order for some and a totally different one for others? And we hear hypocritical calls and cries of 'we want peace' from the idiots and satanic children? This cannot be!
Yaya is hellbent on setting the Gambia ablaze and we have to admit it. All the threats and promises that the peace and security of the country will not compromise are a facade. A little. The Gambia is only peaceful and secured when his interest is not threatened. YOU and I are NOT in peace. The time is ripe for Yaya to be pushed out. And you and I are to do that. Let us not play into the fear that he would refuse to go. The peoples power is superior and no amount of tear gas or baton could stop it.
Solo Sandeng, Fatoumatta Jawara, Nogoi Njie and all arrested with them, Ousainou Darboe and those arrested with them must return home. Home, sooner or later, should not stop the people's revolt to claim their country back. Yaya is only an elected president, NOT a God or Prophet. If he is celebrating coup d'etat but murdering incarcerating those who want to do the same BUT would not allow what are constitutionally legal means like elections and peaceful protests, something's got to give. WE DECIDE, NOT HIM.
