  Haruna I don’t know why you tied everything I say about Pa Nderi to him being narcissistic. I have also said he has some multiple personalities.
   
  
"His recklessness led to many people losing their jobs, detained and  

tortured." Lamin.

 

Lamin, if you look at this statement you shared, you have blamed Nderry

 for  

the crimes of the terminator, detainer, and the torturer. You have also

 

admitted  that Nderry's and the fortunes of this criminal are divergent

 in the main. 

It  therefore establishes that Nderry neither has the intent nor any

 affect 

on the  relationships between the criminal and his/her victims.

 Collateral.

 

Haruna my understanding is if your action or lack of action leads to the injury (the torture, detention and dismissal) of an innocent individual, you should be definitely if not criminally, be held accountable. So if Pa Nderi’s incendiary and dangerous way of doing business couple with his negligence in his failure to secure the name of his “subscribers;” Which led to the arrest and torture and dismissal of numerous people, I don’t know why he should not be held responsible. You are saying if Pa Nderi throw Mr. X’s sheep in the cage of a hungry lion at Yahya Jammeh’s zoo in Kanilai and the lion devour the sheep. Mr. X cannot hold Pa Nderi accountable because the situation of the lion and the sheep was that of fortune? I DON’T GET THIS.

 

"But he don't care he said he is fighting a cause and there is going to

 be  

blood." Lamin.

 

I would take this as Nderry not having the capacity to reverse the  

misfortunes of the criminal's victims and that Nderry, in remorse of

 the pain  the 

victims must have felt at the hands of their criminal, enjoins in the

  former's 

battle. Nderry therefore is well-intentioned and good in the main. How

  you read 

carelessness and recklessness in that is incomprehensible to me.
   Haruna it is incomprehensible to me too that if Nderi throw the sheep to Jammeh’s loin and has no capacity to reverse the “misfortune” of the poor sheep that he is “well-intentioned.” I don’t even think that this  is a misfortune. Because he should have foreseen the fate of the sheep before he did what he did.
  
 

[He mean it but he is not talking about his blood, he is talking about

 the  

life of people he put on the line everyday.] Lamin.

 

I think you read Nderry wrong here. Even if we agree with you Lamin, it

  

could be easily characterized as either banter in Nderry or a battle

 cry.  The 

battle you must now realise is honourable.

Pa Nderi is a coward. If you really want to wage a war you have to man up and be in the front line and not fleeing from the perceived danger and instead using the blood of innocent people including women ad children to wage a proxy war. This is not a battle is a coward sitting behind his computer and exposing unsuspecting people to the ruthless Jammeh attack dogs. By the way I am baffled that you believe that there is a battle to be fought which “you must now realise is honourable.” Your this stands is what is inciting Nderi to be hitting on every body because you guys believe there is a battle to be fought. You have seen the incendiary articles that Nderi will be carrying saying the army is in a war footing they are about to strike all what not. Please guys don’t burn our country the same way George Bush is burning Iraq. 
  Sadam was a bad guy but he did not shed as much blood as Bush.
   
  Haruna I run out of time but I will be back to dissect your response the same way you did mine.

[GDP I noticed that you always find some funny ways of calling people  some 
names. Like calling Baba Galleh Jallow, "Galleh."]
 
No Lamin. My calling Baba, Galleh, indicates esteem and affinity  for the man 
even though I've never met him. Not comedy. And I only called  you Paripanna 
after searching for your name to no avail. I do effort to find  appropriate 
names to give proper ambiance to commentary. This occasion was  serious however, 
not funny. The reason will become apparent.
 
"My Paripanna address came as a result of my frustration to create a  yahoo 
address using my own name. Too many Lamins." Lamin.
 
How was I supposed to know that? So you changed your name just to get a  
yahoo email address????? You might be one of those Gambians who has to have  their 
pictures regardless. And you thought Nderry was bad about that.

"On a serious note:" Lamin.
 
I was joking in the statements immediately above too. Fehr Dinkum.
 
[FYI I was the last man standing when it comes to advising Pa Nderi.I will  
repeat, Pa Nderi like I said, has an agenda and that is "Editor Mbye."]  Lamin.
 
You may be surprised to know that Pa Nderry himself has advised us that he  
and Freedom have an agenda. I acknowledged that in my support of him and his  
paper vis - "Freedom Online did not emerge from vacuous loafing". I enhanced 
the  statement to yield better understanding. Lamin, you will also agree with me 
 that newspapers and or tabloids all have an agenda. Some call it editorial  
philosophy, some call it editorial stance/position. You also are aware  that 
in some places, newspapers endorse political candidates who  best reflect that 
agenda in their opinion. Therefore, a newspaper or an  editor having an agenda 
is not a new or pejorative phenomenon. The problem  arises when we try to 
qualify that agenda for them instead of allowing them to  express it to us. What 
I mean Lamin is that you have qualified Freedom's/Pa  Nderry's agenda to be 
"Editor Mbye". What privilege or authority do you rely on  to qualify such 
subject as agenda??? You see what I mean Lamin. I, like you, am  aware that Pa 
Nderry probably has an agenda as most or all newspapers or even  tabloids do. The 
difference between you and me here is that I am satisfied with  that knowledge 
and I may not venture to characterize that agenda for Nderry, but  you feel 
perfectly comfortable in going the extra mile so to speak. What guided  my 
restraint is value. Is it important or valuable for me to characterize  Nderry's 
agenda??? I determined no. Afterall that will have been mere  conjecture. And 
if the characterization were found to be true, the realization  that whatever 
the agenda was, Nderry had a right to it. PLUS; the fact that  Nderry's agenda 
is 'Editor Mbye' does not have a bearing on proclivity to commit  crime 
against another, which to my knowledge he or Freedom has not done yet. To  the 
extent you and my friend Yanks perceive hebdomadaire in't, I encouraged  you to 
send him well-phrased counsel. Why would I urge you in that  direction? Because 
you have shared with us you find Nderry narcissistic.  Narcissism is not a 
crime but it is a condition that may lead to sleight and or  other offense 
potentially criminal. And you will not get too far with a  victimless narcissist with 
anger. If you really believe Nderry to be  narcissistic.
 
"If you don't accept that," Lamin.
 
It is not a question of whether I accept you view of Nderry or not. If  it is 
any comfort, I do not. But that is inconsequential as you will show me  later.
 
"all Editor Mbye knows about your Private life will be laid bare in the  
freedom newspaper breaking news!!!!! tomorrow." Lamin.
 
If you advise Nderry to publish it, then it is good that it is in the  
Freedom breaking news swiftly and you must thank Nderry for acceding to  your 
request for its publication.
If you advised Nderry not to publish such and he does anyway, then it is  
breach of confidentiality at best. But Lamin bear with me for a minute. If you  
bear such disdain and distrust of the editor of Freedom, that ought to  
possibly encourage cadence and circumspect in your private life. This is so that  
should the National enquirer get to it first before Freedom, it's ultimate  
publication will have been benign and possibly inspiring to others. Since 1942,  
private lives had become public fodder. I found that out when I was born much  
later. I think one problem I see is that we do not fully appreciate the gap  
between Gambia's development as a nation and that of other nations. I'm not  
saying that is the only cause for misunderstandings. It is a contributing cause  
for parallax in perspectives.
 
"He did it to Yanks and many more people." Lamin.
 
I know that my good friend Yanks was aversed by Nderry's reporting  and 
possibly Abdoukarim and many more. I have urged and I continue to urge  Nderry to 
apologise for collateral aversions and sleight. That still stands. And  whether 
Nderry thinks he has not committed a crime and therefore owes no  apologies 
is immaterial. Generally I do not urge folk to apologise for crime. I  solicit 
apologies for more minor offenses of aversions and sleight. In that  spirit, I 
still urge Nderry to apologise to folk who have perceived such  injury 
issuing direcftly from his work and publication. Nderry still has not  committed any 
crime. He is best advised to apologise to Yanks, Karim, yourself,  and any 
who has perceived or innured injury as a direct result of his actions.  If 
Nderry does not apologise, I still support him and Freedom Online. I just  happen 
to know the apology will be extra-valuable for Nderry and Freedom.
 
[If you call him to advice him he act up to win your trust so that your  
share your private life to him and any day he turns against you, you make  
breaking news.] Lamin.
 
No Lamin Nderry is not this sinister. Besides I think he is too busy at  
Freedom for such elaborate schemes. But you say he is narcissistic. A narcissist  
is not capable of accruing value for him/herself through the actions or the  
lives of others. That is a different pathos. Lamin, you and I understand that  
Nderry is constantly under threats and pressures of other who wish him dead. 
Now  put yourself in his shoes for a moment. Then you get Haruna calling you to 
 advise you for calm. I think it will depend to a degree on how Haruna 
advises  you or how you yourself had perceived Haruna prior to his call. Is that 
fair???  That will still not stop you from your ritual supplications before you 
answer  the phone call because you are narcissistic. What I share Lamin is that 
we are  probably focusing on the wrong themes to engage Nderry on if we feel 
he has  injured us in any way. What I see generally is that the method of 
communion is  deficient. And it could very well be true that you are positively 
injured by  Nderry's direct actions or inactions for all I know. We have already 
placed  Nderry on the short end of the stick. That in itself is cutaneous 
armour for  indifference and nonchalance. You're with me Lamin?
 
[Pa Nderry is using his paper to bully innocent people in the same way  
Jammeh is using all the institution of the government to bully Gambians.]
 
I think you are in error here. A narcissist by his very nature is anathema  
to bullying. Think about it for a minute. So he is either a narcissist or a  
bully. And I do not compare Nderry to Yahya. Their resources for craft are  
incomparable. That has an effect on project planning and implementation. But  not 
decrepitude.
 
"His recklessness led to many people losing their jobs, detained and  
tortured." Lamin.
 
Lamin, if you look at this statement you shared, you have blamed Nderry for  
the crimes of the terminator, detainer, and the torturer. You have also 
admitted  that Nderry's and the fortunes of this criminal are divergent in the main. 
It  therefore establishes that Nderry neither has the intent nor any affect 
on the  relationships between the criminal and his/her victims. Collateral.
 
"But he don't care he said he is fighting a cause and there is going to be  
blood." Lamin.
 
I would take this as Nderry not having the capacity to reverse the  
misfortunes of the criminal's victims and that Nderry, in remorse of the pain  the 
victims must have felt at the hands of their criminal, enjoins in the  former's 
battle. Nderry therefore is well-intentioned and good in the main. How  you read

I think you read Nderry wrong here. Even if we agree with you Lamin, it  
could be easily characterized as either banter in Nderry or a battle cry.  The 
battle you must now realise is honourable.
 
[And you know what, if you are not blunt to him like you tried to recently,  
he twist it to mean a compliment.] Lamin.
 
No Lamin. I think you are a bit impatient. Nderry is as intelligent as you  
and Yanks. I think you underestimate his acumen. That might be one of the  
problems you're having with him. Remmember narcissists know themselves to a more  
hightened degree than suicidal deviants.
 
[Do you know that all the articles in the freedom newspaper purporting to  be 
quoting "Editor Mbye" in the third person are all done by Pa Nderry himself  
doing a self interview."] Lamin.
 
I don't see anything wrong with that do you?? If you're infact correct, I  
say Nderry has a valuable skill in pantomimickry. We could have another Marcel  
Marceau in the making. He must be appreciated and encouraged therefore. I  
admired Marcel.
 
[Reacting to the developments, our fearless Editor (Editor Mbye), said “  
Gheran sounds like a desperate man. I am here in Raleigh. I look forward to  
seeing him. I fear only God. He is making the fool of himself by making such  
threats... He made my day bad because since the murder of my mentor Deyda Hydara  
by the Gambian Government, I have been tormented by such nightmares. I hate  
killers and their supporters. He also disrupted my University classes. I could  
hardly read, since he made the threats. I am not scared, but I felt bad that 
a  novice is threatening me in the land of Freedom. This is Un-American. 
Gheran  Senghore should be brought to book for his cowardly act. It's only cowards 
who  hide under the cover of dark to kill others." said MBai. 

The above  quote is Pa Nderry quoting himself and describing himself fearless 
in one  paragraph and in the next one he is scare of death to the point of 
getting  restless and losing concentration to the point of disrupting his school 
work. It  is a dangerous situation to have an individual with all this crazy 
personalities  calling himself a journalist] Lamin.
 
Lamin. Settle down for a moment. You have just described part of the genius  
in Nderry in your submission. To assign malignant faculty and craziness to 
this  genius is itself suspect. Won't you afford Nderry some credit? You notice 
here  that Nderry was the subject of ridicule and malicious attacks by this 
gentleman  (Gheran). If my memory serves me right, the gentleman feigned 
relationship to  Nderry and proceeded to soil the family and character of Nderry. This 
was  Nderry's reaction to such character. I think if anyone is crazy or 
dangerous,  you must agree with me it is the subject gentleman, not Nderry. 
Narcissists can  also be victims of crime of other you know. And narcissists must be 
protected by  the same laws that prosecute criminals.
 
[And Haruna you are damn right too- freedom newspaper is the mirror image  of 
Daily observer's gutter journalism.] Lamin.
 
I did not mean that Lamin and I disagree with your analogy. Freedom is not  a 
mirror image of Daily Observer's gutter journalism. Freedom is antidote in  
mine eyes.
 
[With Jammeh at the head of Observer and Editor Mbye at the head of Freedom  
news Paper.] No Lamin. You over-react.
 
"God Bless Gambia!!" Lamin.
 
I kinda like you for some reason. I don't know why yet. But until I know  
why, I want to celebrate my new-found affinity. You are so excited Lamin, I'd  
think you Joe Sambou. Every time you two speak, you'd think the sky is meeting  
the earth and we're all about to get crushed unless we give you our farthings. 
 You two are good though. May God continue to bless you and I look forward to 
 hearing you more often.

You may have a good point  here. Although I don't view Pa Nderry as  
narcissistic, I would  discourage all online editors to make more economic 
use of  their 
own  pictures. Perhaps you could send a well-phrased advice to Pa Nderry   
along those lines. I also know that Gambians have an affinity for pictures  
and  
the online papers cannot always come up with relevant pictures to  their  
stories.

That reminds me. I introduced The GDp to a Gambian  some while ago. She went  
to the site and called me a couple of days  later to advise me that I do not 
have  enough pictures there and she  did not see mine in the marqee gallery. 
Go  
figure.

Haruna.  Forget all the other valuable information. We want our pictures and  
we  want them now.
By the way, did you know Tiger returned from Bayhill with  Arnie's trophy???  
I felt sad for Bart Bryant. Tiger did it at the 18th  with a 24ft birdie 
putt.  
The only one of its kind he made all weekend.  He had to make that one though 
for  he would have lost in a playoff  with Bryant. I was almost sure of it.
