LJ, interesting to learn that you had your mind in me that
triggered your sharing that local wisdom, I would like you to restate your
point to at least make the message much clearer for someone like me. And you
need not worry about any clobbering from me. I have great respect for you
despite some disagreements we will have here and there. One thing you might
have noticed from me is that I have decided or learned to ignore many things to
pass. One of the reasons for this is that when I reflect on some of the issues
discussed here and the personalities involved and when I look at the letters
they have before their names and claimed stations in life, compared to myself still
a crash-high school graduate, I just scratch my head and let things go. It
baffles how I see through some of the emptiness exhibited by some so-called big
men, but what can I do other than to concentrate on developing myself to enable
me do better I am doing now.

Uncle Sam Sarr,
>You have spoken well and points taken. But in my view, it was a complete mistake on the part of a Party many look up to like the PDOIS to use its mouth piece the Foroyaa to castigate actions Gambians in the Diaspora take against a government of mad dogs in Banjul who constantly molest party leaders like themselves. In my view if they do not approve of our actions, they should ask us for explanations as to why such actions are taken by us  rather than trying to advice us or attempt to refrain us from anything we think would work against this tyrant.
>They the oppositions with their other opposition counterparts have tried from 19 years with their approach without success. Now for how long do they think their strategy would take to save us all from the clutches of banditry and lawlessness?
>Gambians are no longer tolerant as we used to be and any attempt to dissuade them to be patient while their colleagues are being tortured and some killed, would be met with stiff resistance. I hope all opposition parties recognise this in us and respect our decision to try our strategies in our own way. If we fail, then we would try another mechanism until we find a solution but we are no longer prepared for another 19 years of trial. All  actions are on the table and we are not leaving anything out even Jalang, voodoo, anything even if after we would repent and ask God's forgiveness.
>Advices are accepted but not scaremongering!

>This Managing Editor has been reliably informed that there is a debate on the Foroyaa Editorial entitled: ‘The Need To Go Back To The Drawing Board’.Let us take this opportunity to inform our readers who still may not know that the editorial column of a newspaper is the opinionated side of the paper. It combines facts with opinions with a view to giving a perspective that the reader may deem to be a fair comment.
>It is not strange for others to deem the comment to be unfair. Those who are so disposed may write a rejoinder to put their opinions across. Hence, anyone who   feels that the editorial was not a fair comment may write to Foroyaa to put one’s opinion across. 
>
>However, as Managing Editor, I, Sam Sarr, would like to inform the readers that each editorial is written by either the editorial advisers or the
 Managing editor who are the founders of the paper and know the purpose for which it was established and could therefore be the custodian of its opinions. Each is also willing to be personally responsible for any opinion expressed in the paper. It is unfortunate that our service providers have been putting the name of Ousman Njie, the person who does the postings online on the editorial and articles written by others. We have repeatedly cautioned them to change this but they seem to be having some problems in rectifying their mistakes. May be a reader could give us some advice to transmit to them.
>
>This particular editorial on the need to go back to the drawing board is a subject of debate that one of our editorial advisers would like to take up with one of the Washington trio, namely; Pa Samba Jow, for reasons he would explain for himself. The facebook comments have been forwarded to him and Foroyaa is ready to host the debate on whether or not
 the Diaspora needs to go back to the drawing board or whether certain acts that led to arrests and court actions are or are not  a manifestation of political adventurism. 
>
>This paper, however, maintains its respect for all Gambians, including the trio, and will continue to respect the rights of each Gambian to manifest their sovereignty the best way they know how and will continue to entertain meaningful debate on the best way forward for the country. The paper is the amplifier of divergent views. Be part of this constructive debate on the future of the country.
