Gambia Opposition GDC Expels Top Official

(JollofNews) – An opposition party in the Gambia has said it has expelled one of its leaders on Saturday.

The Gambia Democratic Congress (GDC) said it dismissed Foreign Affairs Secretary Musa Bachilly from the party with immediate effect.

No reasons were given for his expulsion, but a statement from the party said Mr Bachilly is barred from taking part in all GDC’s activities, programs and functions.

Mr Bachilly said he has resigned from the party since May 13 and that his resignation was based strictly on integrity.

“The GDC administration is not in order and they are cracking and their particles are falling down,” he told Eye Africa TV.

“They are incompetent. I stepped down voluntarily and my resignation was not a distaste for the party but I decided to resign because of the incompetence of the administration.”

  1. Now Kandeh has a job: put his own house in order. We will have some months of peace thanks to this internal cracks within the GDC. The timing couldn’t be much better.

  2. To Mama Kandeh and The GDC, Jollofnews 25th June 2017
    That’s the true face of every revolution. Reactionaries and counterrevolutionaries will always evade the truth when the going starts to get tough. Then they split and blame the revolutionary vanguard. I’m asking Kandeh/GDC to stand firm, get rid of bad elements within their party and solidify their opposition to the incompetent, tribalistic and corrupt Barrow administration.
    The Gambian populace have already got disenchanted with this inefficient Barrow administration.
    I’m initially approaching Kandeh and the GDC to form coalition with APRC and NCP to work towards unseating a VERY BAD administration we have today. The Gambian populace have already got disenchanted with this inefficient Barrow administration.

    I’m not GDC though, but I hailed Mama Kandeh for the stance he took in the murdering of Haruna Jatta in Kanilai by the invading foreign Senegalese forces.

  3. GDC / APRC alliance makes sense. However NCP is already embedded in this coalition. So Soli may have to revisit his assumptions or explain his rational for including NCP in that alliance?

  4. Kinteh(kemo),
    NCP is a registered bonafide political party. In as much as one can personally swap one’s political allegiance, why not party to party. I have seen a lot of inconceivable alliances through my political experiences, both in Europe and back home.
    Who would have ever believed that PDOIS would ever come to a negotiating table with PPP, one time political arch foes? Who would have ever believed that NRP would one day negotiate with UDP? Who would have ever believed that Dembo By-Force Bojang would ever swap his NCP allegiance to UDP? He was an NCP parliamentarian. Come to Europe, especially Holland, where you’ll see the Green party at time aligning support with the Centre Right/Left Parties on issues of national interest. Politics is all about what you can soberly negotiate to gain.
    The politics of the yesteryears have long subsided. As much as an astute political leader can play his/her fiddle properly, s/he can shrewdly overcome any hurdles.
    The VERY BAD Barrow administration has failed woefully and it needs to go, as soon as possible! Though an inept political novice, I couldn’t believe that Barrow would snub/ignore the Foni people in dishing out the Ramadan sugar to them on the pretext that they massively voted for the APRC. That indicates his ineptitude, incompetence and lack of charismatic leadership. After all, the sugar he dished out to other regions, except Foni was bought from the Gambian people’s money. Is Foni disentangled from that right? These were the President Jammeh excellent legacies to the Gambian people, which Barrow was trying to emulate but in the crude and irresponsible fashion. What a shame on him! Well, as long as Mai Fatty, Ousainou Darbo, the erratic tribalist Minister of Women’s Affairs, Tambajang are around to dictate, Barrow is a marionette leader that is manipulated to the dictates of the trio. But they will disgracefully answer to the wishes of our people who are gradually becoming unhappy with the politico-social and economic situation of our country since January 2017. How disappointing/disgraceful!

    • As usual you swerve off the topic. What would be the rational for ncp to join a aprc/GDC alliance? And abandon the coalition they are wholly embedded in. Or asked the other way round. What benefit or political clout wound NCP bring to that alliance?

      Finally, how come Minister of women affairs Fatoumatta Jallow is a “erratic tribalist”? Againstwhich ethnic and for which ethnic group(s)?

    • An empty barrel makes more sound. Those who failed woefully in their lives wants to see everyone else fail just as bad losers would never accept the result of a fair contest but will always cry foul after the end of the contest. We know those loud mouthed ignorant political nobodies with their twisted and bigoted agenda against Barrow and his administration and against the Mandinka tribe by inseminating false, insidious and detestable lies should prepare their sorry asses to failure of biblical proportion. This Mandinka administration as they like to call it is here to stay and if they don’t like it, then they can drown themselves in the river Gambia or any other river of their choice. Gambia will never again be a breeding ground for lawlessness, injustices, forced disappearances, tortures, rapes and state sponsored murders as was prevalent during the misrule of the Kanilai beast. Those who were anonymous during those dark days of our history only to come out now when brave sons and daughters of our great nation put their lives in harm’s way to deliver our people from the bondage of the Jola hegemony or empire to disparage those entrusted to rule by those electorate should be ashamed of themselves. Shame and disgrace shall be their eternal companion just like the disgraced evil monster whose so called excellent legacies they bragged about. The excellent legacies of theft, unimaginable brutality meted out to sons and daughters of our beloved nation, economic mismanagement, incompetence, arrogance, bigotry and finally exile. Coward to the end! Brought to power by the unflinching support of the Mandinka warriors only to betrayed them along the way to self destruction. FIRE BURN THE HOUSE OF THE KANILAI BEAST! FIRE BURN THE ILL GOTTEN ASSETS OF THE BEAST AND HIS GOLD DIGGING WHORE WIFE.

    • I wonder if your lewdness, childish bigotry and obduracy have healed one little bit…
      An egregious distorter and twister of facts
      You wish the new government be misguided and inept like in your former regime, when booze parties are thrown at the very expense of a disprivileged masses

  5. Bourne, Nasty Dreadful Natty Dread(The Lost/Misguided Lady), Kinteh(kemo),
    Kinteh(kemo), I don’t digress from topics. You simply misconstrue my contents. You always fail to digest the messages of my postings, that’s your problem. Of course, NCP should quit a failed bitty “coalition”. There is abundant reason for doing it. Which coalition are you referring to? It no longer exists. When the UDP got the mantle of responsibility, they treacherously/traitorously kicked the asses of the other”coalition” partners to gain a more upper hand in the National Assembly. That was the political gimmick the NCP has to learn from. Why keep faith with traitors?
    Bourne, everything to you will be childish. No wonder you behave childishly. Your government is useless, impotent and lack of direction. The facts are gradually surfacing about the nepotic, tribalistic and corrupt decisions that are covertly being taken in the daily administrative routines of your VERY BAD and USELESS government.
    What have you learnt about the 50-million-dollar cash Chinese gift?
    What have you learnt about the agreement signed between Barrow-Senegal-France about the minting and printing of our new currency coins and notes…etc?
    The only information you could gather from your incompetent government is when their slippery-mouthed government press officer, Miss Bojang says X has been (re)deployed to Ministry X or X has been relegated to position X…… Nothing fruitful for the country over 6 wasteful months! What a patch-work of inept administrators!
    Natty, the Nasty Dreadful Lost Liar Lady, you are really good at soothsaying. We don’t care how long your incompetent administration stays. If your ass still believes that opposition to a government ends with President Jammeh, you are making a serious misguided calculation, no wonder from your shallow brain. We are here to stay put/firm with responsible opposition to your incompetent, tribalistic and corrupt government. How long will that responsible opposition take, depends on your shallow soothsaying brain,’cause you are good at prophecising dates ? But we are here!
    Come up with your unfounded claims of torture, murder, rape, disappearances etc…………..that you have over 20 years been LYING about. COME UP with your claims, Lost Liar Lady.
    As of now, we have tangible documentary evidence of Barrow killing HARUNA JATTA in his hometown, Kanilai and the continuous detention of Araba Jammeh for months. We have evidence of the Senegalese forces continuous harassment of the Kanilai inhabitants and the coverted intention of your shit government to silence the opposition by coercion and intimidation.
    We have evidence of the stealing/concealing of more than half of President Jammeh’s hard-earned assets only to claim freezing the unconcealable ones. This bunch of THIEVES.
    Their vengeful attitude towards all that is associated with President Jammeh will not save them from being flushed out in the near future. The Gambian people are already disgruntled with the pompous, sneaky, stupid, rudimentary administrative attitudes of the British Argos watchman and his clique of inefficient overseers, NOT GOVERNORS!

  6. Babu Soli
    Tired old lying brains like yours who contributed nothing positive to our national development except the same old lying ways of denying the undeniable. The only Gambian who denied the brutalities meted out to our people by thugs on lease pulled by the Kanilai beast say a lot about you Babu soiled himself. You can deny,pontificate,lash out, babble for all you like, but the Gambian people have moved on, opened a new chapter of governance where the rule of law will be our guiding companion in our pursuance to create a free,fair and prosperous society in our homeland, unlike the cruel and despotic rule of that fool from Kanilai.
    Useless lying agitators like you and your village idiot friend Sidi Bojang as well as your illiterate nincompoop =peace#,sewage rats i will call you with your dark and twisted agenda bound to fail and fail woefully.
    You are nothing but a jealous lying tribalistic bigot whose loud mouthed rhetoric of hate disguised as opposition only help strengthen our determination to uproot the remnants of dictatorship in our homeland. Several detained to face justice and more to follow till the day we bring back that beast in handcuffs to face those whom he committed abominable crimes against. The old tired shaggy ass Babu Soli, the lying sewage rat of Holland, the envious scumbag, the damn sore looser, the apologist to the worst atrocities of our times, the good for nothing asshole, the Mandinka hater bring it on.Bring it on your insidious disguised hatred. We can handle it on our strides. May Almighty Allah protect our homeland from the evil of men like you and your coward exiled beast by the name of Yahya Arrogant Jackass Jocker Jammeh, BABOITA MANSA.
    The Ali Baba on white robes with prayer beards,sword in one hand and the Quran in the other. The coward exiled buffoon.

    • Babu Soli, Alhajj Mad professor, the Doctor, the Sheik and the Nasrudeen have had your head washed with liquid from his plastic bottle. You truely look like bewitched with his bottled mixtures.
      Criticism and opposition are never genuine when they are one’s mere hobbies. Yeah, I do criticise but that is when is worthwhile.
      Is difficult to figure out what’s happening to you…is it the cheesy Dutch burgers?

  7. Baby Soli
    I will be the first person to join you; & second the (your) motion to impeach the current President & administration, (BUT) ONLY on CONDITION (that) you present the (“we have”) tangible CREDIBLE evidence you claimed you got on your allegations…?
    Opposition is healthy inalienable rights of citizenry & residency in any communities world over; everyone got equal rights to be opinionated on communal affairs, but got to do responsibly, to be taken credible & seriously…
    ECOMIG soldiers weren’t in Foni to “harass Jolas” but rather deployed to safeguard Gambia security from the mfdc rebel activities; as “landmines have been laid all over on Cassamace side of border” according to Amul Nyassi, Foni kansala MP; & EVIDENTLY, these landmines have started killing innocent Gambians in our very own communities in Foni…?
    The incites from the EVIL kanilai KILLER yaya syndola DEVIL made the (some) few uninformed unaware residents to spring to feet, (with the presumption to (usual) bribery-rewarding gains of the stolen (State) Dalasi); brag about, mobilised, to (physically) flush out the (Senegalese) “enemy”; then pretentiously embarked on mock demonstrations in gimmicks to literally “chase the ECOMIG contingent out” with bare hands; do you expect these (ECOMIG) soldiers to stake their lives in NAIVETY for what was at stake on the grounds in Foni…??
    Why can’t anyone in SANITY come to their senses, that (was the reason) EVEN their that THING called EVIL kanilai yaya IBLIZ(A) Lucifer ITSELF ran away (to the EQUATOR), with ALL the REBELS behind in support & all the ARMS & AMMUNITION under its influence…???
    Let’s act DECENT & dispense on the truth; tribalism never breed any progressive prosperity; politicians will always rival to rule; (BUT) the battles must be on credibility, integrity, ideas, qualifications abilities & capabilities, for societal advancements, etc etc…

  8. Rectification please – Baby Soli meant to read -Babu Soli… Thank you

  9. New coalition anti UDP for next general election said Sallah

    • Then Babu got his sought after coalition-of the willing! A dream team made of APRC/GDC/PDOIS! I hope they can pass the test in the current legislature.

  10. Nasty, Dreadful Natty Dread, The Lost Liar Lady,
    You are yet to describe yourself. A self-effaced uncouthed bigot, a LIAR and hateful/vengeful imp. Only the likes of this hateful Liar Lady will deny the achievements of President Jammeh. We are waiting for the day(s) you prophecy he’ll come in handcuffs. You have walked/worked the days and nights to compile LIES and DEFAMATIONS about killings, rapes, disappearances, tortures during the President Jammeh era…. without an iota of evidence. But you can shoot and cold-bloodedly kill HARUNA JATTA and illegally detain the Bafuloto youths, Araba Jammeh and scores of peaceful Kanilai demonstrators without charge.
    What can you appraise your idiotic and incompetent government of achieving? Expect lack of transparency, false promises, stealing from public coffers, tribalism, influence peddling, nepotism……. I stance about the Mandinkas has already been reiterated. I don’t never to bother about your stupid allegations. I have lived and shared my life with the Mandinkas far more than you do Nasty Dreadful Liar Lady Natty Dread. That’s why I speak the language fluently, behave, interact more appreciably with the Mandinkas than you IDIOT. The Mandinkas form the nucleus of my village and my position within our communal environ is far more appreciated than your STUPID head can imagine.
    We are condemned to retrogression. With a fat-bellied school dropout, once a neocolonialist watchman in Britain is at the helm of our affairs and idiotic imps like Liar Lady Nasty Natty Dread as one of the unconditional enablers, the Gambia is condemned to failure.
    Better stop your soothsaying LIES. Who’s told you that we will make a headway towards sustainable progress with a bunch of selfish idiots and their blind-folded enablers(i.e. LOST LIAR LADY Natty Dread) (un)steering the affairs of our country? Who’s told you that?
    You must be crazy and indeed you are crazy in your determination to make an unworkable situation work. Your government is JUST corrupt and inefficient.
    I’LL GET BACK TO YOU BAJAW. I’M ATTENDING A STAFF MEETING SOON.

  11. Babu Soli
    I always asked myself why should i waste my precious time debating someone who takes lying as a sport of choice. Sometimes i even wondered if all your mental faculties are working properly as only you, feeble lying lunatic will deny the barbarity of Korro Ceesay’s death. The only individual who will deny the brutal torture and death of the two Gambian born American citizens, the torture and death of Solo Sandeng, Ndure cham, Ebou Lowe, Deyda Hydara and countless other innocent citizens in the hands of thugs on lease pulled by the Kanilai Fool. I read your ramblings with amazement as to how stupid,primitive and contradictory you are. How can you fast the Holy month of Ramadan and practice lying as a habit, a habit forbidden by our creator. If i don’t have an iota of evidence for the killings,the disappearances, the tortures, the rapes, the theft of our dwindling resources on grand scale and abrogation of our constitution, i doubt you have any evidence either to support your various unsubstantiated allegations against President Barrow and his government. These crimes i have listed above were common knowledge and only the likes of Babu Soli will refute them. You are on the wrong side of history and God willing, the truth of what transpired during the despotic rule of that fool from Kanilai will be revealed and reveal imminently and the cowards have already started talking.
    I am a business tycoon for your information unlike you who in his twilight years still work his ass out for imperialist and neocolonialist Dutch nation whose seedy dealings in our continent of Africa notably in the Congo where they connived with others in the assassination of PATRICE LUMUMBA, our continent’s illustrious son. I live in Mauritius with a work force of little under 100 personnel.I don’t work for nobody,nor do i answer to anyone bar my creator. I have never been a member of any political party nor have i ever voted for any politician. I had and will continue to use my wealth though to effect changes in our homeland for the better. Gambia will never again be a breeding ground for injustices, lawlessness, tortures, rapes and forced disappearances as was the norm under the misrule of the fool.
    I hope and pray that you will live long enough to see the fulfillment of my prophecy regarding the frog marching in handcuffs of dictator Jammeh into a Gambian court house to face justice. Running away with tails between his legs into exile is not the end of this narrative, but a chapter of it and the final chapter of this narrative will be written by others not him.
    God bless our beloved nation.

  12. Nasty Dreadful Natty The Lost Liar Lady,
    You cannot waste your time on debating with me. You have no time for yourself except the useful time that Babu Soli allocates you.
    I observed that you were utterly dormant during the Ramadan month because Babu was absent, so your horrendous brain couldn’t work out anything objective for the Gambia masses to benefit from. As soon as Babu returned after Ramadan, your shallow brain started to chip up again. Hey, Liar Lady, learn from me. I’m an excellent source of information and inspiration for you. A historic relic which you can never dry out.
    I don’t hate my benefactor country Holland and her citizenry. I simply don’t share and accept some of their values and that’s all. But I admit that they are one of the most brilliant seeds of European citizenry, where ONLY the qualified of any breed and nature are accepted and fitted into any sector of the society. Hence, my privilege and right as a Dutch government functionary.
    Haven’t you distorted facts about the Dutch with the Belgians. The Belgians who colonized Congo, haphardly gave them political independence and speardheaded the gruesome murder of Patrice Lumumber? The Dutch behaved badly in South Africa(Azania) and in South West Africa(Namibia). A bit of corregendum for you Liar Lady.
    “A business tycoon with little under 100 personnel.” I wish you well. May you go beyond that 100 personnel line! But that’s Nasty Natty Dread’s personal achievement. You may be comfortable with that achievement, so am I with mine. The Gambian people’s livelihood is what matters to me but not to you. You only care about entrenching a dysfunctional grouping of corrupt, tribalistic, nepotic and influence peddling elements above our people’s immediate needs. That’s where we differ. Better make your stupid head tally with concurrent situations and stop the blind-folded support of a group of incompetent and inept elements.
    I live on my salary from which I educated all my children to the highest levels, my two wonderful girls and three wonderful boys. I sustain my family back home on my salary and live here and in The Gambia(while on holiday) a life of AL HAMDU LILAHI. That’s the Almighty Allah(SWT)’s grant to me, which I can’t pay to HIM, except by saying AL HAMDU LI LAHI.
    Why tell me that you are a business tycoon? When my elder daughter finally left her very lucrative bank job at Utrecht here in Holland, I thought she was crazy. She went into her own business trading venture by sending Dutch batik(wax) to Gambia, Senegal and Mali, travelling to these countries and to Thailand where she imports cheap Thailandese clothing. Today, she is making hundreds of thousands of euros per month with paid representatives in each of the 4 countries. That’s the business acumen of a person. I am not business oriented. But I’m REALLY very happy and comfortable with my earnings! The essence of life, after all.
    Notwithstanding, I’m supporting a number of women from our area with credit from my own resource to set up their own micro-businesses WITHOUT INTEREST RETURNS. They are faring well. I’m leaving on 10th July and I have already kept aside 400 euros(maybe 20,000 dalasis) to give out to more women. That’s my contribution and my side of business orientation.
    Mind you, Nasty Dreadful Natty, not to cling onto the cheap labour of that Indian Ocean Mauritian population to make unwarranted lucrative profits. Remember that they are African and their livelihood depends squarely on what you rightly give them for their labour. Don’t CHEAT them!
    Islam forbids accusing one’s own wife or husband for fornication/promiscuity unless one ascertains it with the evidences of 4 truthful witnesses. You see how hard it is to allege/accuse someone of something you cannot evidentially accredit? I will never accredit the killings, tortures, murders, disappearances, rapes….associated with President Jammeh, unless there are unreserved accounts of the incidences but not from hearsay least from Nasty Dreadful Natty Dread The Lost Liar Lady.
    Six months into the VERY BAD Barrow administration, 22 years after President Jammeh, we haven’t seen your evidences/proofs yet. What a bunch of LIARS!
    Koro Ceesay, Ndure Cham, Deyda Hydara, Ebou Lowe, Solo Sandeng……your list goes on, were killed. By President Jammeh? What did they do? Bring your proofs.

  13. Babu Soli
    Amnesia from old age it seemed is catching up with you now silly. You wanted me to describe myself to you and that is what i did because i don’t lie unlike you who practice lying as a sport, nor do i brag about what i do or don’t. I am only trying to quench your curiosity about Natty Dread. Babu Soli is nobody in my eyes but an immature petty, jealous, inferiority complex ravaged tribalist bigot who lashed out at the slightest provocation. A bitter little old man whose pleasure lies in judging people by either the work they did, the clothes they wear, the size of their body mass, the tribe they belong but not the content of their character. A bitter little old man whose intellect is confused, twisted and contradictory. A wise educated man will know that its the duty and responsibility of the government to investigate the circumstances surrounding the death of these men listed above, not Natty Dread. But Babu Soli being an educated fool on a lease pull by the Kanilai beast can’t see what others can.
    You can deride, mete out your cheap and childish insults like a school yard bully, but that ain’t gonna change a thing. A washed out confused political nobody of your standing hold no fears for this government. Your lies, innuendos, insidious bickering are just a sign of desperation on your part. The disgraced Kanilai beast is gone, ain’t coming back except in handcuffs to dance to his own evil tunes.
    Please Babu read the last paragraph of your piece above regarding accusing someone of something. Practice what you preach or shut up petty old man for god sake.
    It is none of your business to tell me how i treat my staff. I don’t take advice from washed out fools like you who are economical with the truth.
    Shaloum! Shaloum!

  14. Nasty Dreadful Natty Dread The Lost Liar Lady,
    I know who Nasty Natty Dread is. The Lady Liar, nothing more.
    You can’t take advice because you are an uncultured uncouthed FOOL. I know you are a cheat, that’s why your last parapragh derides my piece of advice about your “presumed” staff. ” A business tycoon in Mauritius”. LOL
    The threat to your corrupt, incompetent, tribalist, influence peddling and undemocratic bunch of inept administrators is already being felt in the corridors of their houses and offices. With disgruntled Gambians (except the Liar Lady Nasty Natty) voicing out their threats to the dysfunctional administration; Ousainou Darbo for tax evasion, Mai Fatty for lying about the Kanilai episode, Hamat Bah for dehumanizing our youth and women, Omar Jallow for lying about the provision of fertilizer for our farmers and the fat-bellied Barrow about the fate of the 50-million-dollar Chinese cash gift, the tide of opposition/threat is already felt. Don’t worry about my threat/opposition. Mine is just like a drop of water in an ocean. The Gambian people will do their work on the ground. Your bunch of inept administrators have started to hide behind the security forces. COWARDS and LIARS.
    Detached from the reality on ground in The Gambia, away in your Indian Ocean Mauritius, you think all is rosy for your inept administration. You are a FOOL. Gambians have already noted/felt the pinch of ineffectiveness, clumsiness, LIES and uselessness in the British Argos watchman’s administration.
    I have to tell you what I can do and can’t do because initially you stupidly believed that I was looking for favour from President Jammeh. You are the asses who think that all those who speak well about President Jammeh BABILI MANSA are enablers. That’s where your shallow thoughts track you. To tell you who I am, what I can do is good to subside your STUPID curiosity about me. It will equally assist you to make “good” judgement about the person you relate to. But how can I talk to a FOOL and make her understand?

  15. Babu Soiled himself
    I know who Babu soli is. A petty lying bitter old man who use these online medias as a thrill seeking exercise. Enjoy it as that is all you can afford. By the way i ain’t interested in knowing who you are. You are a nobody who need these debates to make him think he is relevant. Calling you a fool will be a praise that you don’t deserved. Enjoy the thrill while it last. Natty Dread have other means to effect change in our homeland for the better other than insults,accusations, innuendos and outright lies as in your case.
    Bring it on Babu! your ramblings ain’t gonna change a thing. President Barrow and his government of outstanding men and women will continue with their good work of consolidating the progress made during these 6 months of his presidency.

  16. We thank ALLAH Almighty for the opportunity to change the Gambia peacefully from dictatorship, tyranny, deceit and brutal suppression to peace, freedom, harmony, progress and development. We thank Allah Almighty for giving us a leadership that is objective, realistic, progressive and transparent to the citizenry. No more disappearances, rape of our girls and women (by the security forces/NIA and the president himself), arbitrary arrests, detention and summary executions and secret mass burials, suppression of freedom to speak and religious exercise. ALHAMDULILLAH forever for giving us Barrow and his administration. May ALLAH Almighty grant you, your government and the progressive people of the Gambia peace, progress, happiness and development. Ameen
