Prince Darlington Johnson, a Nigerian born Swedish citizen who is planning
to establish the International Committee For Aid in Africa (INCOFATA ), has
disclosed that “the era of those who kiss the hand of their leaders in daylight
and stab them under the cover of darkness is ended.”
Mr. Johnson made this remark last Saturday in an interview with the Daily
Observer while condemning the attempt to remove President Jammeh and his
government from office through violence means. He noted that the coup plotters
could not even have reasons to topple President Jammeh’s administration which, he
said, has brough about stability and development to the Gambian people.
Mr Johhnson, a British and the US educated international jurist, said The
Gambia needs stability for economic growth, emphasising that investors
normally have confidence for investment in such situations.
“It is often said that change is constant, but no reasonable coach that
knows his onions changes a winning team. Of course, the society will frown at any
concept of change that will truncate a winding side or anything that
willbring discordant tune to a well-blended-music,” he said.
He noted that The Gambia is a paradise for investors and predicted and that
in the next ten years, there will be lots of opportunities for investment
hence rapid socio-economic development.
He said The Gambia government is actually doing a great job in augmenting
the standards of Gambians which, he said, has compelled him to come down and
give him a helping hand.
According to him, his organisation is an international umbrella body for
Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and that it is going to be seriously
focused on manpower training to ensure that at least 20 to 30 personnel from
different institutions in The Gambia have access to scholarship. He said what he
needs the government to do for him, is to provide him with an office.
He disclosed that he will also cover other areas like youth development,
health, construction, notably for schools, and agriculture, especifically in the
acquisition of fertilizers and the rendering of valuable assistance to
Gambian farmers.
According to him, he is higly connected with many Heads of State in the
world which, he said, enables him bring about numerous assistance to The Gambia.
He added that there are numerous resources for developing countries, noting
that the only problem is how to tap such resources. He made mention of a
proposal that he intends to present to President Jammeh.
Mr Johnson, however, disclosed that he had been approached by a Gambian
musician based in Sweden, Demba Conta, to visit The Gambia, hailing the great
job President Jammeh is doing. He said as an international lawyer, who is
connected worldwide and travelled extensively realised the good work President
Jammeh doing for the Gambian people.
