Pa Nderry,
            keep up the good work and do not be
distracted about this absurdity called "APRC
Government politics of hysteria" by the so call
SANYANGBA. He is so desperate to defend his "pay
masters" that he doggedly refuses to see wisdom in
whatever the diasporan write. He should understand
that the diasporan stands "with the Gambian people at
home, the women, the youths, who want a true and
peaceful democratic future.

SANYANGBA cannot tell us that he has not seen
President Jammeh's horrible corruption, the violence
against the civilians, and the terrible incompetent in
Jammeh's leadership. 

The so call SANYANGBA, interpretation of diasporan
sane manner constructive criticism of a corrupt
government as an advocacy for violent is a sign of
desperation.Is SANYANGBA paranoid? It is a sad
commentary to refuses to face reality and tell
Gambians that Jammeh is horrible and must go.

Now if SANYANGBA is a free born, he should come out in
the open and tell us how he feel about the following: 

(1) Ousman Koro Ceesay killing;
(2) the students massacre;
(3) the killing of private Dumbuya;
(4) assassination of Deyda Hydara;
(5) the November 11 massacre of the GNA officers;
(6) the whereabouts of the ex-NIA director Daba
Marena; Lt.Alieu Ceesay; Alpha Bah; Staff Sergent
Manlafi Corr; and  Lt. Ebou Lowe.

Now if SANYANGBA is angry, diasporan should commit
suicide because of the above serious crimes against
humanity committed by president Yaya Jammeh and
supported by elements like this sycophant.

The truth is that president Yaya Jammeh who seeks to
undermine the rule of law, interest of the weak and
powerless is the enemy of our dear country.

Let the like of SANYANGBA continue deluding themselves
into believing that Gambians at home are happy with
this corrupt regime.

Finally, the last thing a free born citizen would do
is to surrender to a dictator.

The struggle continues! 

Saihou
