Mr Pa Pierre,

If my memory serves me well, I did remember asking you to explain an excerpts from your email, which you stated:

"If every Gambian sense of responsibility is close to what i see at the PDOIS political Bereau, we would have made a superb achievement of our goals as a nation". Pa Pierre

For some reasons, you still have not justified, what spured you into making such a preposterous remark about our sense responsiblity. However, you have the valour to ask me questions, when you have not answered mine yet!

Nonetheless, to show disparity in our persona, I shall attempt to give you my consideration to your enquiry.    

“Brother Yanks” Pa Pierre.

Yes comrade!

 “Tone down the retoric please”. Pa Pierre

I did not know the pitch was that high, however, for our comradeship, I will bring it down.

 “I know you are angry about a lot of things. And, frankly speaking, i am too. Example, you and i share the same emotions about the scandalous online paper spewing corrosive venom on any Gambian she wants to at will. However, I will not go as far as you want to by doing everything possible to bring the paper down. I prefer to leave the paper continue its mudslinging. Time will tell. It paper will eventually give up. How soon?, I do not know”. Pa-Pierre.

You preached us about Christianity, yet you’ve never read in the Exodus of the Bible, “life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth”. My quest to bring the paper down that you have referred to here, if you had followed my posting, under the catch phrase of “Pa Nderry’s Cruelty”, was premised on that biblical doctrine of punishment, which in jurisprudence is often ascribed to the school of thought of the “retributivist”. How can we condorne a paper that you describe scandalous spewing corrosive venom; is this what the bible teaches that we must condorne crimes of this sort?  
 
“Brother Yanks, why don't you want to talk to PDOIS? What is their crime? How did they commit those crimes? You probably may have documented the list of crimes they have committed which led you to this ultimate conclusion. "No dialogue with them"”. Pa Pierre!

Mr Pa Pierre, my simple answer to these questions has been re-written by yourself below! If only you were as smart as you tried to depict your traits by dodging to explain slander of our people, you would have realised my rationalization below, before asking again. 
 
“Dialogue with these socialists monks had not work in the past, ....." Yanks
 Mr Pa Pierre, this is my simple answer, take note! 

My long answer would be, since you shared your philanthropist conviction of the  basic tenets of human right with me in this email, see below. It is worth inform you that one of those tenets of every Human Right is the Right to be able to choose who we associate with, the European Convention on Human Right referred to it, as the “Freedom of Association”. For that purpose the UDP/NRP is a group of human beings, each of whom has the right of association just as PDOIS. For that Reason PDOIS does not have to commit crime, in order for the UDP/NRP party members to exercise their freedom of association. If they choose not to associate with the PDOIS that is simple, they are under no further obligation to explain their reasons. It is part of exercising their basic tenets of Human Rights not to associate with PDOIS again.
     
“I am astounded by your remarks. Do you know that these men did not play a role in the deaths of Koro Ceesay, Dedya Hydra, and others. The killers in my view are in the Gambia and people are still laughting and smiling with them. But you seem to infer that PDOIS are terrible criminals than the killers. The implication here is you are creating a new bloc of enemies. These i suppose include the families of Journalist Chief Manneh, and numerous other who rely on the rigorous investigative spirit of PDOIS to trace and free their love ones”. Pa Pierre

Here you go again, whether they play a role in this heinous crimes or not has no relevant in our exercising of our right of choosing who we associate with. You seem lost about the concept of Human Rights. Just because you made comparisons between the saintliness of PDOIS with Jesus, means UDP/NRP have no right to reject calls of associating them with the socialists’ monks. we have every right to reject them, just like we have to reject Jammeh’s APRC. 
 
“Brother Yanks, You really have to be a classic mind of your own. To ignore the fight for the restoration of the basic tenant of Humanity (Human Rights), will be a collosial falure of any decent human being. If nothing else, PDOIS stand out as champoins of human rights in the Gambia. It would not matter to PDOIS who is held. Even if you Brother Yanks get arrested upon your arrival in Gambia, PDOIS will fight your case with utmost vigour. There is no time to dig into Yanks controversial positions in the past that "There should be no dialogue with PDOIS"  Pa Pierre.

Mr contemporary mind Pa Pierre, you are surely confused about the basic tenets of Human Right. How is my exercising of my Human Right of freedom of association breached your fight for other rights of Human Right, i.e. Right to Life, Freedom from Torture, Oppression, and Unlawful Imprisonment? I don’t know, if you are aware of this fact; the word Human Right is a very big term, which has different tenets. Next time be careful with the word and be specific. You failed to recognise that by me writing, what I have written, which you referred to as “Rhetoric”, was actually part of exercising my human right; i.e. my right to freedom of expression.   
 
“Finally, my brother, do not let the bitter emotions of NADD's disintegration spill over into your other faculties of positive engagements with truth. You got to transcend beyond the past to better focus on the future. The past is nothing more than a science labortory for experiment. Experience has taught me that we are more motivated by past falures than by our successes”. Pa Pierre.

Mr Pa Pierre, “I learned that one can never go back, that one should not ever try to go back, that the essence of life is going forward. Life is really a One Way Street” Agatha Christie 1890-1976.

For that reason I repeat to your disgust!
No more Nadd
No more another Nadd
and no deals with the socialists.
 
“Pa-pierre”
