(JollofNews) – Leaders of the West African regional bloc Ecowas, the African Union and the United Nation are accused of failing to stick to the terms of an agreement they signed to facilitate former Gambian ruler, Yahya Jammeh’s peaceful exit from power.
Mr Jammeh, 52, who governed the Gambia for 22 years, was booted out of power in January 2017 after a shock defeat in the presidential election by opposition candidate Adama Barrow.
As part of the deal and ‘in order to assist a peaceful and orderly transition and transfer of power and the establishment of a new government,’ Mr Jammeh agreed to temporarily leave the Gambia on 21 January 2017 for Equatorial Guinea with his wife and family ‘without any prejudice to his rights as a citizen, a former president and a political party leader.’
In return for his peaceful exit, regional leaders, the AU and the UN gave assurance to Mr Jammeh while he is in exile, they will work to ensure that host countries that offer “African hospitality” to him and his family do not become undue targets of harassment, intimidation and all other pressures and sanctions.
They also gave him assurance that they will work with the Government of the Gambia to prevent the seizure of assets and properties lawfully belonging to him or his family and those of his cabinet members, government officials and party supporters, as guaranteed under the Constitution and other laws of the Gambia.
Ecowas, the AU and the UN also assured Mr Jammeh they will work with the Government of the Gambia to ‘ensure that he is at liberty to return to the Gambia at any time of his choosing in accordance with international human rights law and his rights as a citizen of the Gambia and a former head of state.’
They also gave their commitment to work with the Government of the Gambia to ensure that it fully guarantees, assures and ensures the dignity, security, safety and rights of Mr Jammeh’s immediate family, cabinet members, government officials, security officials and party supporters and loyalists.
Further assurance was given to Mr Jammeh by the organisations that they will work with the Government of the Gambia to ensure that no legislative measures are taken by it that would prevent the seizure of his legally acquired assets and his return to the Gambia.
Despite the assurances, the Gambian regime Monday obtained a court order to temporary freeze all properties belonging to Mr Jammeh.
The order will affect Mr Jammeh’s companies or organisations directly associated with him and is meant to prevent him from liquidating or dissipating his assets so as not to cause prejudice to the state should there be adverse findings made against him by a court which may require the recovery of assets and money from him.
But according to an influential heavyweight in Mr Jammeh’s APRC party who contacted JollofNews, regional leaders including (AU) and the UN have not done anything to stop the persecution of Mr Jammeh’s family members in the Gambia and senior security officials in his regime.
“HE [Yahya Jammeh] has done everything they asked of him as part of the deal but ECOWAS, the AU and the UN are not fulfilling their side of the deal,” the official who preferred anonymity said.
“This is really disappointing. HE had the best interest of Gambians when he agreed to step down from power. He could have stayed put and fight to the last drop of his blood, which would have caused untold sufferings, death and destruction to our country.
“ECOWAS, the AU and the UN should start putting pressure on Adama Barrow and his government to stop the persecution and harassment of HE, his family and security officers in the best interest of the Gambia.”
You publishing this article makes you a moron as they the fanciful APRC logic thinking, never tallies with reality. Let them keep undermining the new government and the ECOWAS, nothing was signed, no assurances were given to him. He knows full well what was coming for him, so save us the rhetoric you keep throwing out there. So many bitter people in our midst, so sad
Unfortunately for you, Mr/Madam heavyweight, President Barrow and his Coalition partners were not party to that agreement. Moreover, it is the desire to establish the lawfulness or otherwise of his assets that they were freezed/frozen, at least, to prevent him from liquidating what might not his lawfully.
We have not seen any agreement but we are confident that Yahya Jammeh’s rights as a citizen of The Gambia is protected by this government. We the people have an equal right to remedy if wronged by Yahya. No one can steal, rape, torture and steal from us and hide behind ECOWAS, UN or Mr Barrow. Illegally acquired wealth is going to remain subject of litigation both civil and criminal for years to come.
You are stupid and idiot woman. May be you were bed during there every political rallies. You are really prositute of that era. Can you recall yout mind in 1994. Yahya jamneh seize people properties. What goes arroubd , comes arround
Righteous man, I hope you revisit and show remorse at the choice of words you responded here with. They are misogynist and very irresponsible!
U r d kind of people who don’t know nothing from ur brain and just started insulting that woman.
Ur mother n sisters r woman. ..If u don’t respect ur mum,u will never respect anyone, so u r an idiot n lack of knowledge.
Righteous Man,
You *****’ half-minded Righteous idiot and broke pimp.
People who talk like you missed an education at the very right place and time. If you are really sure you descend from saints, you won’t be scribbling this ****.
It’s a disgrace to the Gambia that such a person like you could be her citizen. In the name of what? Freedom of expression?
Absolutely right.
Thank you Dr. Isatou Sare. I have nothing to add to your comment.
Ebrima Fatty.
Well we now know that there was an alleged agreement between the parties. The terms and conditions being explained by an anonymous party member. The article also claims that the said agreement saved many lives. If the said agreement was in writing and signed by all the signatories, then it becomes a legal issue for argument by legal representation. In such circumstances one can understand the aggrieved party taking issue over what he perceives as entitlement to the rights given by the alleged agreement. The Gambian government may feel they have a right to freeze all assets until all claims are settled.
Such legal arguments can take many years to resolve. Litigation in such cases can be very expensive indeed. Obviously all parties will take legal advice as to the merits of their claims.
Meanwhile I think many victims who suffered may have a soundly arguable case for compensation against the State; The State has a duty of care to all citizens and noncitizens under their jurisdiction.
These matters are best left to the Judges; Mr Jammeh has withdrawn his claim for dispute over The Presidential Election reported to be for the best interests for peace and harmony of The Gambia. The further claim that Mr Jammeh left The Gambia for similar considerations is also claimed. Meanwhile the State may have a duty of care to maintain and protect any property claimed or in dispute. I agree with Dr Sarr in that Yahya Jammeh is entitled to all rights as a Gambian citizen.
I think Jollof News has every right to publish this article; It is in the public interest and is current and relevant. I am aware that such interest pieces are generally checked for authenticity.
This is my opinion.
Don’t even dream yaya jammeh dead or alive, until he faces justice we are not going to rest.my idea.
Jollof News has given the impression that Jammeh who refused to accept the verdict of the Gambian people had maintained his rights. By refusing to accept a constitutional declaration, Jammeh violated every right and lost every form of sympathy from the Law. By illegally usurping power and illegally acquiring properties in the most fraudulent manner, I am deeply disappointed that you have given credence to Jammeh’s story.
He was a criminal and should be treated as such. Jammeh committed numerous atrocities and cannot be protected from some bogus agreement that he negotiated with outsiders. He probably should have stayed and risked an all out battle. The Gambia’s political landscape would have changed forever. Of course, karma bites when least expected. Gaddafi was stupid enough to refuse to listen and he got killed like a dog. Jammeh’s fate would have been the worse. Gambians had more than enough of his misrule and anyone trying to glorify those years of brutality is nothing but an idiot.
Jammeh came to power empty handed and he would die empty handed. Every stolen funds will be recovered. Every collaborator and enhancer will be sought, exposed and dealt with. All is just a matter of time.
You can kill individuals but the truth can never be destroyed and justice will prevail.
What “rights” is kanilai Evil Devil yaya & hallucinate-co fancifully dreaming of…?
Yes the “rights of innocence” is ever accorded (except under kanilai DEVIL) in Gambia to absolutely ALL & EVERYONE, Gambians or otherwise; ironically even that right of innocence WEREN’T availed to anyone under the MURDEROUS OPPRESSIVE kanilai FIEFDOM; this DEVIL so-called heavyweight ADVOCATE is an own testament to freedom of expression & rule of law currently obtained in Gambia amongst others; by exhibitions of this very devilish jungle crying as town crier can only be found in better society far from the EVIL kanilai FIEFDOM era…???
Nobody, from UN through to current Gambia government has the right to forfeit the Gambia redress necessary for the MURDEROUS kanilai EVIL FIEFDOM years; justice will be done in most of atrocities committed under the IDOL WORSHIP kanilai DEVILISH FIEFDOM…
Anyone can be entitled to own opinion Hallucination…
If we believe in justice and democracy we had to respect the pacts because without these agreements today mr Barrow will be hiding in Dakar and many of us dead, the negotiation has avoided bloodbaths , many thanks to the negotiators for saving us . Let’s Respect the pacts and forget the past and focus on the future of people of the Gambia.less bla bla get out from the five star hotel
I was a senior member of the Gambia Armed Forces and I know that Jammeh left for his own interest. He fully well understood what was coming for him when seven commandos stood right in front of him and kept on reminding the Guinea Conakry president that it was time. He (Jammeh) and any of his enablers would have been the victims of the blood bath, just like Laurent Gbagbo in Ivory Coast. I am disappointed he ran, he should have stayed and fight as he had been bragging. I know Jammeh since school days and in the Armed Forces and me and him were bodyguards to Sir Dawda for some years. I know that he’s a bully, has inferiority complex issues and very low self-esteem. He childhood times haven not been pleasant that’s why he’s constantly angry even at school, against all those boys whose parents take them to school in cars. He blames his poverty on everyone that’s why I personally fell out with him. Yes he has killed directly and indirectly, tortured and imprisoned countless people.
NICE THAT IS YOUR OPINION BUT SINCE YOUR DAYS OF SIR DAWDA TO DATE HAVE A BETTER LOOK AT THE GAMBIA. AM FULLY IN SUPPORT OF YOUR CORNER ON HUMAN RIGHT BUT THE MAN HAS ALSO DONE A GREAT JOB. AT AGE 29 HE TOOK OVER WITHOUT ANY TRANSITION, 5 BOYS WITH VERY LITTLE OR NO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE GAMBIA TO THIS STAGE. WELL I AM NOT A SUPPORTER OF APRC OR ANY PARTY IN THE GAMBIA BUT AFTER MANY YEARS OUTSIDE I MOST SAY HE DOES A GOOD JOB IN DEVELOPMENT.
AS WE MOVE ON THE INVESTIGATION AND OTHER CLAIMS OF CORRUPTION AND HUMAN RIGHT ABUSES I BELIEVE THOSE THAT ARE NOT BRACING FOR A ROUGH IMPACT WILL HAVE IT PAINFUL. I PERSONALLY HAD SEND INVESTORS MANY TIMES TO GAMBIA BUT TO MY SURPRISE DUE TO CORRUPTION THEIR PROJECTS CANNOT START. LAST WEEK I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO SIT WITH ONE OF JAMMEH’S FORMER SG AND I WAS SHOCK WHEN HE SHOW ME MEMOS THAT DISTANCE JAMMEH AND HIS DECENT TEAM FAR FROM ANY CORRUPT ACT.
THE GUY FURTHER TAKE ME THROUGH THE LIST OF ACCOUNTS READ BY THE JUSTICE MINISTER AND HE BRUSH THEM ALL OF AS SOME ARE GHOST ACCOUNT BY FRAUDULENT SENIOR SECURITY AND OTHER SENIOR OFFICIAL ACCOUNTS.
JAMMEH ALL KNOWS OUT OF THE LOT ONLY 9 ACCOUNTS. HE ALSO GIVE ME A LIST OF HOUSES DONATED BY REAL ESTATE OWNERS, INDIVIDUALS AND COMMUNITIES. HE TOLD ME JAMMEH HAVE NEVER GET MUCH INTEREST BUT WANT TO ENCOURAGE GAMBIANS TO FARMING ESPECIALLY THE WOMEN. HE CURRENTLY HAVE A MEMO SIGN BY JAMMEH INDICATING MOST OF HIS FARMS OWNERSHIP SHOULD BE TRANSFERRED TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY AND HIS NAME SHOULD ONLY BE CEREMONIAL. I WAS REALLY SHOCK…
This new government of The Gambia is one bomboclart greedy pussyhole connection. All they did is fake the Gambian people that they can take over the power and now they are stealing the former president assets, cars, lands, cows etc., waste the Gambian money (Barrow and the Ecowas soldiers are living in the Kairaba Hotel, imagine what this costs in a day!) and sell out the country to Chinese and other cunts. You Gambians better wake up out of your stupidity! Yaya Jammeh was protecting The Gambia, while this new president will sell it out to Senegal, China and others. Gambling and all kind of nonsense got legal again. They all were only jealous of what Yaya Jammeh had and could not take advantage of the country and other people while he was president. This ridiculous Barrow is even driving Yaya Jammehs car, but talking bad about. What the fuck is wrong with Gambians! I promise you that this country will drift into violence, tribal war and criminality under that new government. It is really sad what Gambia has become since Yaya Jammeh left.
You are very stupid person.
You shouldn’t even publist this article. First of all, most of his assets if not all, are illegal. He was abusing his power as head of state to possessed them. Secondly he can’t be free to travel to Gambia any how because after he left the new Gambian authorities discovered the worst atrocities in humanity he committed on Gambians. Thirdly, there was no serious agreement with him. As he is a fool who was trying create violence, they just black mail him to leave the country peaceful.
Who do you think will support or help Jammeh to avoid seizing his so called assets or ti be travelling to Gambia as he wished? Let him try that, we are waiting for him to step his foot in Gambia. Only if he want to come for a suicide mission.
You are 100% right!
Hello Bajaw: Long Time.
Well said Peace>>>Justice and a new democratic future, is now here with certainty.
Gambia is smart enough to not be deflected. Let the legal eagles earn there rice.
Time to move on up.
Yes, anyone can carry on head-buried in daydream slumber; fools will always hang themselves given long rope; Mandinka Adage – Maaku Yeah Sha(Faa)kuu… “…Do good; good will always follow you, even at &/ in death…”
I love how this article completely ignored the “legal assets” part. The new government is saying he stole 50million dollars which will make any of his assets illegal. Let him go to court and prove his case. Of course APRC members will cry foul no matter what evidence is produced. This article is just disappointing that its based on a biased report without any infusion of common sense.
Sure; “Time to move on up” Mike; yes been while but Bajaw’s always following…
Time can only move on up when stock is taken & checked from past to redress for smoothly move on into future; the slat can’t & will NOT be blanket-wiped just like that for the sake of whatsoever ideological dogma; for there’s NO peace ever in justice denied; there can’t be peaceful coexistence without redress of the MURDEROUS OPPRESSIVE kanilai DEVIL FIEFDOM era…
Gambians will surely see to justice done accordingly…
Jammeh lost an election. What negotiation is this gentleman talking about? When you lose you leave office period. Dictators want to negotiate because the chickens are coming home to roost. His past is catching up with him. He should have thought about what is happening now before traumatising the nation.
I don’t even know where to begin, how did Silly jammeh acquire all these wealth and properties. It’s absurd for someone to even that Jammeh left for the interest of the country, that’s s blatant lie. Jammeh ran away because Ecowas was coming after him, he bluffed before thinking ECOWAS will change their minds but when he learn they were coming, he called the Mauritanian and the Guinean President to come to his rescue. How many millions did Jammeh stole from Gambia, for some stupid guy to suggest that Jammeh has Gambia at heart is not only silly but an insult to the Gambia and it’s people. Jammeh should be killed and or put to jail for the rest of his natural life. Jammeh lost elections and agreed on National TV that he has lost the elections, why should we beg the asshole to leave power. To hell with jammeh and the people who support. How many people has this bastard and his so called jungulars killed. They preyed on defenseless onpeople but when real soldiers came afteraf them they all ran away with their Shaytan Yahya Jammeh. Do spare us with your no sense of trying to defend the indefensible. Gambia is s blessed and a happy country we don’t want yaya jammeh and his murderers.
Deeply saddened by Jollof news its entire staff and whoever dare wrote or proposed the idea of publishing this nonsense story. Yaya Jammed is the one that betrayed Ecowas Au and The Gambian people . when he was making the deal to leave the country did he also tell them that he stole $50.000000 from the government. Yaya Jammed was a head of state and cannot be compared to individuals sent into exile with dead threats. He is lucky that he got that deal. Every one has rights but dictator who tortured kill political opponent has few rights and Yaya Jammeh is on of them.So who ever wrote this nonsense story is a traitor to our democracy an the entire world. WHAT A SHAME
Headline: “Ecowas leaders accused of betraying Jammeh”. Accused by whom and who is the lamenter? The few points quoted from an unknown person barely give credeance to the vilifying headline. I think the headline is grossly inappropriate.
Bajaw: There is claimed to be written agreement signed by all the parties; I find it interesting that the APRC heavyweight chose to speak anonymously to Jollof News. The agreement would seem to offer protection for Mr Jammeh, His family members, His APRC Minister’s, Supporters and what is more interesting protection of his security officials. Mr Jammeh as a citizen of The Gambia is entitled to all rights and is free to enter Gambia at anytime of his choosing. His property and assets are also apparently protected. In the meantime several security officials have been charged along with family members and Mr Jammeh’s Gambia assets frozen by The State. The Governor of the Central Bank has also been replaced. President Barrow claimed in the French media { France 24 } that 4 Billion dalasis { about 80 million dollars} was unaccounted for, from State Coffers. The allegation also states that “African hospitality” was assured with no sanctions or threats or harassment to the Host Country. From which Mr Jammeh conceded The Statehouse and left the country temporarily and voluntarily to facilitate a peaceful transition of power. With no damage to infrastructure and no loss or injury of ECOWAS citizens lives.
It is therefore up to all sides to provide proof or counterclaim, to this comprehensive allegation. Or reach an amicable agreement.
The victims of crime is a separate issue against The State. Of course for a crime to be committed, there must be a criminal. This cannot be a trial by the media. But under Jollof News’s Freedom of Speech policy>> all are entitled to offer opinions from both sides of the “argument” Anonymously if you so choose.
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
My own opinion is that if the media suppress any Minority opinion, the potential consequences for peaceful resolution of any reasonable difference of opinion, is a recipe for an unsatisfactory outcome.
{sorry I cannot translate this into Mandinka}>> Jirri Jeff.
Opinion.
The writer is contradicting himself. He/she said, “properties legally acquired”, and also that he will be guaranteed his liberties. The government of the Gambia is basing its decision on the grounds of illegal withdraws Jammeh made whilst in office, and therefore have the rights to recover those funds belonging to the state regardless of any guarantees any organization. On the issue of Jammeh being shielded from prosecution, Jammeh is a Gambian, and therefore have rights and protection just like any other Gambian, but if he is implicated in any of the murders and tortures of Gambians, the state will seek to prosecute him just like any of the members of the Jungullars that served him, regardless of guarantees
There was no agreement that facilitated his exit from power as he was adamant up to the end of his term. He was forced out by ECOWAS as he cannot stand their might. So let no one air about betrayal. He was the betrayer prepared to destroy this country
Who tell you guys that yahya left through negotiation? he indeed surrender by pushed factor. He remained in the state house until the ECOWAS forces entered via air, land and sea and no resistence from the gambian army-the forces in air droped a warning bomb in the forest region around kanilai the yahya took the phone and called alpha condeh to come a negotiate bcus these people have already started attacking my places. Finally he wrote his own informations in paper that all my assets will be free with no endorsed by non but yahya himself. If he was really for negotiation, buhari and his crew would have persuaded him.
I just want to ask one question to the writer,
Did Yahya Jammeh give up the Government for a deal or he did lost the Elections? The deal was to throw him out peace, now that have been achieved then the deal is over.
A fool President
Can this ignoramus so called heavy weight please reveal him/herself. Let me tell you something so called APRC heavy weight, we don’t care any more what you or Jammeh thinks. He acquired his wealth illegally by emptying the state coffers, so the state have the legal, moral, social and political right to confiscate what rightfully belong to the state but taken illegally by either Jammeh, his gold digging bitch of a wife or his cronies.This anonymous so called heavy weights i will term insidious traitors who enabled Jammeh to destroy our nation, now want to hide under the cloak of victimhood should know that the dark days are over and they ain’t coming back.
A saying for Jammeh…. You reap what you sow. You will never again in this life time live in our country in peace and comfort. Mile2 is where you belong and shall be your abode till death.
Who is this so called heavy weight?.Does he have so short a memory to forget the crimes committed by him(Jammeh)?. He be left there in his white deadly dress.Heavy weight shut up.
answer to a fool and foolish person is a big silence!!!
Mike, Jollofnews are within their purview in freedom of speech & expression uphold to publish the piece & letting us windows into the EVIL murderous mindset of the EVIL kanilai FIEFDOM agents & enablement; DEVIL yaya & absolutely NOBODY can claim with definite evidence that yaya EVIL jammeh had D500 in its account on July 22, 1994; I challenge anyone with evidence to present…
The kanilai DEVILISH MURDERER had put up such fanciful hallucinated demands like what’s being alleged in this piece just in pretentious wrangle to escape death at the 11th hour whilst ECOMIG closed in; but those delusions weren’t binding to anything at ALL …
Neither the current Gambia government nor the regional & international communities have powers to forfeit the necessary redress for justice to victims & country as a whole for atrocities committed under the EVIL kanilai fiefdom…
Justice must prevail for the woeful wrongs committed; only then can the community move on forward…
Thank you.
Thank you Dr. Isatou Saar and many other contributors. The office of the President is not a money minting one. You take an oat to serve the people NOT to destroy them and no one should ever think he has the monopoly of violence. It is not difficult to know what “legal” wealth a former president should own. The so called agreement I doubt existed. Mr. Jammeh lost an election and should not have taken the Gambian people for a ride.
We Africans should not relent at any opportunity to right the dictators.
Mike
Sometimes, (as) you already know, it’s to go the “hard way”; as in the forceful flushing of our late KILLER kanilai DEVIL in Gambia…
No sugarcoat “resolution” carrot-dangled for the Greedy Idol Worshipping kanilai yaya’s eyes only can be binding for any withhold from the necessary redress required…
NOBODY, absolutely NOBODY (not Pr. Barrow); not Gambia government & international &/ regional bodies has the powers for blanket-wiped of the blood-soaked kanilai FIEFDOM slate by any meaningless so-called “agreement/s” promised…
That’ll never be in any interest of the Gambia; if not victims will be forced to go after the culprit-perpetrators personally…
That’s no peaceful coexistence neither societal cohesion necessary for communal healing; for realistic truth & reconciliation being drummed about…
As citizen of Gunjur & South Gambia, you will have to double up with your local languages Mike; but you ain’t doing bad at all “…jerri Jeff…” qualified you really earned the citizenship…
Abarraka is sufficient in Mandinka, Ajarrama in Fula…
Just throw some “jibes” (humorous banter) at anyone of the commentators on here; wind them up, they will speak to you in local Gambian languages to you ; that’s your secret & let no one know I told you this; you can learn the languages easily for free, even not on the ground….
Lord bless Gambia & us all; Ameen.
Bajaw; Nanga Deff.
You are one of my online hero’s over the last 11 years. An inspiration.
Sounds to me Like The Big Man is getting lonely. !!!
The soul of any man is always at ease in his own bed, in his own Town, in his own country.
For what does it profit any man to gain the whole world, but lose his soul.
Or maybe he’s having wifey trouble ? lol
Some of the richest men in the world are the most miserable. I don’t think any such men ever find peace. This one lost his conscience when he betrayed Jawara. From then it was all downhill. I guess he cries himself to sleep every night only to relive his many disturbed dreams and nightmares. God is Great !!! Ameen. No man can escape his judgement day .
Some people get it wrong again, there was no agreement, or any formal binding agreement. Yahya Jammeh refused to transfer power up to the last minute, this even cause international community to stand up against him. As I said, jammeh Will loose every thing and soon he will face justice, he already committed crimes and evidence are available at court discretion, for those who get it wrong gambia now is a country of law no one will get up and go after jammeh like that if he is clean.
Jaamarrekh ahm chee Gambia; Alhamdulillah RabilAllah meena… Mike; as saying – “the Smiley (smiling) Coast; Gambia No Problem…”
“…When one sows groundnut, one can only expect groundnut to reap in return (produc(e/t); not corn in the stead…
Humans always need to stick to the principle of “do unto others as you like to be done to”;
No DEVIL soul/s can ever be able to destroy Gambia by grace of Almighty God; Insha Allah…
Bajaw; What goes around comes around. Too much sun makes all desert. Into each life a little rain must fall>>>Do unto others as you will be be done by, is my favourite.
I am almost Mandinka now ? A Gunjurian Mandinka with blond hair and blue eyes ?
Reading this article is making me so mad.
The French have a saying>>> evil be to those who think evil.
Nice to speak to you again. That’s my pleasure and my honour.
I think the overwhelming majority of Gambians have spoken in unity and harmony.
{ makes a refreshing change}
Whatever unites us is Great !!! Perhaps that will be Jammeh’s only lasting legacy of worth.
Thanks for compliment Mike; I consider myself a servant to my own kind, community & global village as diverse people of the world…
Indeed heartening to know one make impact on others; & to be honest, it’s the same impact all of you & rest of contributing commentators make daily on my humble self; sane human beings will always learn from one another differently…
But I don’t believe all upright walking mammals on two legs in physiological shape duped “human beings” all are qualified to be categorised “humans” which is drawn from the word humane…
Few are real DEVILS in human skin, shape or form; we can all tell who these are by their deliberated manifestations; & these Barbaric Demonic Few don’t deserve any recourse from the very fellow human beings they maltreated wilfully…
This my belief; thank you.
Sure Mike; you’re a full-blooded blue eyed Gunjur Mandinka; & Gambian you shall always remain; you stood with us (Gambia) all along through thick & thin; we shall always remain grateful…
There was neither agreement nor deal by Ecowas for Jammeh to leave the country. He was told to leave or face the music .I’m glad that one of most cowards ever to be enlist in our military,Yaya Jammed choosed the proposed exit. There was no betrayal here whoever thinks so that person betrayed the family of Solo Sanding, Dayde Hydra and the list goers on and on.Finally it’s the duty of every Gambian media platform to protect the new democracy that took us 22 years to establish by ignoring and refusing to publish such stories. I’m a freelance writer and it hurts me when I see such stories. The world now is far more democratic than yestryears. It was democracy that we wanted the UN,ECOWAS and the AU has done that to remove a man the majority of Gambians don’t want as their president. Every criminal has rights except Yaya Jammeh and whoever think so that person is not a Gambian.
No one is perfect….let them confess and be prepared to repent and justice can and will take its course.
Truth and reconciliation is the only solution now for the future of our offsprings.
#Peace=, no one signs a pact with a lunatic. He held the country hostage, wishing war breaks out and ”heads get rolling down the ditch” so that he would take cover under such a state of human life ravaging and the confusion it would borne. Psychopaths like your Alhajj Sheik Professor Dr. Nuts Babililimansa A J J Jammeh don’t need a deal. He need penned behind the grill. He is a bloody murderer and criminal, including all his cohorts at large.
Bajaw: You do me great honour; I could have done more.
This new government of The Gambia is one bomboclart greedy pussyhole connection. All they did is fake the Gambian people that they can take over the power and now they are stealing the former president assets, cars, lands, cows etc., waste the Gambian money (Barrow and the Ecowas soldiers are living in the Kairaba Hotel, imagine what this costs in a day!) and sell out the country to Chinese and other cunts.
