Joe Sambou,

Here you go again doing what you do best; yak yak yak....  You can talk all the nonsense you can utter here but you still have not addressed the fundamental question I asked of you...what have you done with all your grand tactics up your sleeve and the bravery that only Joe Sambou has?  Pleeeeease we are dying to hear you so that if it has any merits perhaps some of us can join you and may be we can make a difference in The Gambia.  May be you can lead us deliver Gambians from Jammeh's tyranny.

You come here everyday pretending to be the best tactician, the best castigator, the best showman, the best citizen, and yet I, for one, have not heard anything tangible coming from you that I can say merits following your example.  You make a lot of assumptions in your attacks on others that are outright wrong and sometimes just malicious.

Joe Sambou, please take a few days and ponder over my question to you and then come back with something more substantive next time instead of railing against others just because you can.

Ansu

Ansu, I do not have your level of calmness under our current assault by Yaya, and you do not have mine.  Thus, do what Ansu is doing and let Joe do what Joe is doing.  What is sacrilegious about calling a spade just that?  I do not intend for a coward to lead me and I will say it loud and clear.  None asked anyone to be a politician.  What talk is cheap?  It is apparent that you and I do not have the same level of anxiety regarding what is happening in the Gambia.  I also perfectly do under that you are not here to address my Cheap Talk, but are irritated by my explosion on the time waster that Ousainou Darboe is manifesting to be.  I know for a fact that you will not be this cool like a pack of Camels if someone close to you was whisked.  I do not need to know anyone personally to be this outraged.  Since when do I ever speak for you?  Ansu, I am not in the mood to join you in this Maslaa nonsense and you do not have to bother with anything I say, deal?  If not, I say use your delete key often because you will hear my mind and not Ansu's, if you read me.  Why do you think the UDP cadre are quiet?  They know that their leadership is paralyzing them and it is about time folks muster the courage to speak up.  The gatekeepers of the opposition are suffocating Gambians.  


Ansu, now that we reached an understanding, please let me exercise my rights as a citizen.  Why the hell did Ousainou as a party leader defend Femi?  Ousainou knew that whether he does or do not defend Femi, the outcome will be the same.  He knew exactly what he is doing.  Now that the rubber met the cement and Femi is languishing in jail, Ousainou the politician is hiding behind Ousainou the Lawyer and cannot say anything that would address the clear fix that he knew to be the outcome by the frauds he continues to try to defend, the Judiciary.  Ousainou knows that the Judiciary and Yaya are one and the same, but try asking Ousainou his opinion about the Judiciary and you see him foam all over the place without saying anything.  Enough of this nonsense.  It is simple folks, Ousainou cannot continue to carry on with this pretext. You are not the Lawer for the opposition but a leader of an opposition party.  Thus, you need to quit this business of speaking as a Lawyer at all times while all around you are being whisked to jail.  How come Ousainou can never say what Femi said or did? Shingle, Rambo, et al went to jail not because they were alter boys for Yaya.  It is only in the Gambia do you see the opposition rank a file whisked to jail while the party leader shuffles papers for their appeal, when they know they are wasting their time. If the rest of the world could not get Chief Manneh out, what is Ousainou thinking that his GRAND APPEAL is the thing we need?  It is like the cart pulling the horse.  No, it is Tchangaria that is whisked to jail not his driver, if you catch my drift.  I am not telling the UDP how to conduct their business, but just in case they think folks are not aware, your leadership is lending a hand to what is happening in the Gambia. If Femi can be railroaded, what chance does the average Gambian have without the backing of a political party?  


Joe

I asked you to be one of the brave ones and head to Gambia to lead just a civil disobedience against Jammeh. You did not address this issue but just continued your usual diatribe against others. What have you done yourself?

> I am not defending lawyer Darboe or Halifa or any other leaders for their tactics or lack thereof. Believe it or not but I agree with some of your assessments about the futility of some of their tactics against the regime. I am just observing your behavior on this forum and I urge you to take stock of it and I am sure you can do better. If you can try to be a bit more constructive in your criticisms may be you can be taken more seriously. I know you have opinions and so do we all. But, you think yours is the best approach everytime and anything else is worthless. I am not sure how long you have been whaling against Jammeh now but I what I think is right, don't you think you should have done something about him by now? TALK IS CHEAP!!!
