Point well taken and acceptable. I know, Yahya spends a lot of sleepless
nights, in fear of what's coming to him. You're right Brother, the key is
mass organization/mobilization/cordination and protest.
I read a book last year by the renown African thinker/scholar, George B. N.
Ayittey: 'AFRICA IN CHAOS' {Each and every Gambian or African concerned about
military/despot/kleptocratic ruler's in Africa, should read this book]. Mr.
Ayittey summed up your suggestion/scenarios as the "Serbian Syndrome" a la
slobdan Milosevic>Pro-democracy activists on the streets of Belgrade.
In the last chapter, 'epilogue and conclusion,' some serious observations and
commandments were noted:
WOLE SOYINKA [1966, 59]
All symbols of military authority must be removed from our midst. Those
arrogant photographs that desecrate public spaces, hospitals, offices, even
courts of justice. street names, also, change them all. Remove them. remove
them by stealth, remove them openly, by cunning, remove them by bribery,
remove them forcibly, remove them tactfully, use whatever method is
appropriate, but remove them. I call on all who are resolve to play a role in
our mutual liberation to participate in this exercise of psychological
release, or mental cleansing and preparedness.

[October 1, 1993, 2]
One of the most urgent matters for Nigerians to address when they settle down
to debate the National Question is the issue of collaboration by
professionals and technocrats with corrupt and repressive regimes. We must
devise effective sanctions against our lawyers, judges, doctors and
university professors who debase their professions in their zealotry to serve
as tyranny's errand-boys, thus contributing in large measures to the general
decay of honesty and integrity in our national life.
The recent arrest[s] and charges of intent to overthrow his, Yahya Jammeh's
regime, African Women/Sisters [civilians in their own rights], speaks of the
utter disregard of common sense in these moronic-thugs.
Yahya Jammeh, T*I*N*A* [THERE IS NO ALTERNATIVE]. We will hold you
responsible for all atrocities committed on Gambian Women and children. At
first, you went for Koro Ceesay, we said nothing; you went for the
soldieries, we said nothing; You ordered the massacre of demonstrating
children, we started mobilizing/protesting against your brutality; now you're
going for our sisters and mothers, we will hunt you down by any means
necessary..you will never rest in peace.
Keep organizing...making history...winning victory!
