Two magistrates slected for Chevening scholarship to UK 
africa » gambiaWednesday, August 21, 2013The British High Commission is pleased to announce that Mr Dawda Jallow, and Ms Sainabou Wadda have been selected as Gambian Chevening scholars for the academic year 2013/14.  The Chevening Scholarship Programme is this year celebrating its 30th year anniversary and is one of the world’s most prestigious international scholarship programmes. The scholarship, that is granted every year through the British High Commission to two Gambian students, offers the opportunity to study at one of the UK's leading universities for a period of one year with the UK government paying fees and expenses.   Mr Jallow and Mrs Wadda are coincidentally both studying the same subject at the same university.  Both will undertake a Masters in International Human Rights Law at the University of Exeter.  Mr Jallow and Ms Wadda joined the UK High Commissioner David Morley at the High Commission for afternoon tea last week (13th August) to talk about their upcoming visit to the UK.   Mr Jallow and Ms Wadda will depart to the UK next month to undertake their studies.  The British High Commission Banjul has now funded over 70 Gambian students to achieve post graduate degrees in a range of academic disciplines.  Commenting UK High Commissioner David Morley said – ‘I was delighted to meet Dawda and Sainabou recently and to hear all about their future study plans in the UK.  I congratulate them on being offered the scholarship; it is always a pleasure to be able to send keen students to the UK to study for their postgraduate degrees under the Chevening programme.  I am sure both Dawda and Sainabou will be excellent Ambassadors for The Gambia once in the UK and I wish them the very best of luck.’  Source: British High Commission

 That's why him and his system must go as a number one priority. In Jews' culture they start creating Doctors, lawyers, scientists from childhood by calling their kids what they want them to be. In comparison we are calling Jammeh the problem and cancer that has to be quarantined and rid off Gambia. 
Will you start joining us by repeatedly reminding everyone of this maligned tumor while we strategize on other plans?

The aquittals are in right direction for what they are.
Neither the problem is solved nor the effect mitigated. 
Their (Yahya) purpose is to cultivate a culture of fear and subjugation.  Subject us to these treatments reinforces that.
The problem though the lack of democracy - had that exist to some appreciable degree most or all of these people shouldn't be drag to courts at state expense and their lives as well.

Regardless is better than the opposite. But no winners here.

Mambanyick Njie former Perm Sect ministry of youths have been acquitted by Magistrate Dawda Jallow on false information charges after two years in trial..
I am greatly encouraged by these young magistrates' efforts to uphold the letter of the law and assert their independence. Consistently we can cite many series of cases going on this path... Read more from the point...

How do we encourage in a positive way the actions of these young brave magistrates? I had suggested before that our legal minds away from Banjul should take up some of these cases and help strengthen the legal positions of these magistrates. I know we have a long way to go but a step in the right direction...
What do you think? Am I being too optimistic as usual or is it too early to celebrate...
Thanks

Demba
