The above observation by the eloquent opinionated contributor
is flawed to say the least. The late member of parliament whose
seat is been contested for is infact a member of the opposition, voted to
the house of parliament by the very people he is bent on criticizing as
been politically immature to the point that they [Badibunkas] would
elect anybody to represent them.
The author can learn a lesson or two if he took his time to do a little
research on the political leanings of this part of the country, before
embarking on his bitter hysteria against a region that he seems to
know very little if anything about.Badibunkas like the rest of our populace
needs encouragement to not fall for the mischief that yaya and his
party stands for, but trying to paint them as a bunch ignorant people
who needs to be paid a particular attention lest they vote for the APRC
[which is never gonna happen] is an insult. The author whatever his
motives are is doing himself a disservice by sending to the L such a
a contribution that is not only factually incorrect but it is in principle
a disrespect to mandinkas and the people of Badibu.
It is a nice gesture to watch your step before you step on somebody's
foot........ MR. POLITICAL ANALYST.

Ousman.
