WOW,

I salue to BRAVE EDITORS for running my bitter taboo-shaking commentary.

1. I touched the nerves of the bigots in my provocative commentary on religious hypocrisy and sexual orientation. Text messages and emails are fuming in. It is GREAT FUN, THOUGH. Some called me "Kaffir" and I told them yes I am proud of being a "Kaffiro" and there is nothing they can do about it! Hahaha! Others called me "stupid," "idiot" and other names. I know I generally wrote about some people's crimes like sleeping with underage girls and boys, secret bi-sexuality, secret bestial sex with goats, cats, cows, dogs donkeys, horses and other animals FOUND in The Gambia, etc., so they feel personally reminded of their sins! Who told them to be intolerant, homophobic and selfish!


2. The folks have ZERO SENSE OF HOMOUR and SENSE OF REASONING. They cannot just realize that I deliberately write to PROVOKE. I do not write to appease the dogma. People will not easily digest my writing if I start using the STRICT and boring/sterile vocabulary of the academia without even petty informal typos and errors. I want the streets to understand me, not the elite conclaves. REVOLUTIONS IS MANY CASES START FROM THE STREETS!


3. The women are not complaining but some guys are ranting that I do not respect women. The ladies are part of my constituents and I have to keep them happy and make them laugh. People are too stressful.  This is what am saying about Gambian hypocrisy. We grew hearing people shouting CHAPPA NDEY, BA BEWO and the likes on the streets. I never used these insults in my writings but the fun I make about the curves and buttocks of the ladies is considered offensive and demeaning to women. HYPOCRITES!!


4. Sugar-Mummism is not my invention but since it is a good traditional form of FWB (Friendship With Benefits) and Inter-Generational Win-Win Cohesion, I support it and I will practice it. Let the fools rant into the arms of their 72 virgins paradise!


5. As for the media presence of filmmakers, I wonder how did they know about Filmmakers and artists like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Whitney Houston, Leondardo Di Caprio, etc without their  visibility? They did not talk about their respective works and activities? Or they came to them in dreams without any media inputs on their works.


6.For those who care to know, my FILM ASSOCIATION (correct names withheld till official press release/launch) is now fully registered in The Gambia. Detail will follow. Gambian being copycats, some people upon hearing about my Gambia Film Village project, are running to GRTS to form what they called "INDEPENDENT PRODUCERS ASSOCIATION (IPA)" or something like that. Anyway competition is good in a healthy society. Their main advantage is they are on the ground. Notwithstanding, I believe there is room for everyone and I will be on the ground as feasible. The more the merrier and the market will judge.


7. Back to the main issue, people who have been following my writings can confirm I talked about FILTERING: Meaning adapting the BEST AND APPROPRIATE PRACTICES FROM OUR PAST, OUR CULTURES and FROM OTHER ALIEN CULTURES while dumping the backward and harmful ones. I am not sticking to the past. I am just reminding people that for us to get out of the socio-political and economic SEPTIC THANKS we need to dig through the ancestral achieves to help us leap forward with modern innovative ideas.


8. Whatever, the British played a decisive role in putting an end to the Soninke-Marabout War regardless of who they initially supported or not. People are free to interpret that as they wish.


9. As for the "Prince" on my name, people are getting irritated by it for no reason. Those who want me to remove it should go milk a fish first! I WILL NEVER REMOVE it as it is officially on my IDs, Passports and academic papers. They are too stupid to remember that I am not forcing anyone to call me Prince, just like the way NO ONE IS FORCED TO READ MY WRITINGS. People are VERY LAZY to write and the few of us who are sacrificing our useful times to contribute to the Enlightenment are being crucified as just idle gossips and publicity stunts. I am not out to appease, so I enjoy their criticisms.


10. Anyway I am wasting my breath trying to reason with irrational folks out there. I enjoy debates but not with people who are not open-minded enough to accommodate unconventional styles of writing.

LONG LIVE THE FREEDOM PROVOCATION.


11. Please as suggested by my High Prince Dida Halake, once I die people should engrave the following texts on my epitaph "EVERY DAY CANNOT BE DOMODA. 72 VIRGINS WILL BE BORING. WORLDLY BOSOM HOURIS, I MISS YOU! HAHAHAHA!"


12. Once again thanks to the Editors for having courage to run and edit/modify my unconventional piece on the sacred cows of "religion, sexuality and moral hypocrisy" in our Society.

PEACE BE WITH YOU ALL.


Prince BA Sankanu
