Happy Eid to you and yours too Yero.



On the debating score, I am totally debated-out on Gambia Yero. Even with Halifa. And I think you are too.



 






 (: back at you!

Haruna.

Haruna,


 


Thanks and I am glad you are following as always. Yes, frankly stated, "...the most adroite..."


 


On a note, I am a late comer to the Gambia-L & Gambia Post. I heard Halifa debated here before. I can't wait to have him back here so I can have Daffeh and Demba Baldeh debate with him. I will have you, FJM and Joe as referees. (Big smile). 


 


Humor aside, the lessons from the Foroyaa camp hasn't been ingenuine, but they need to be on alert about "the evolving" and dynamic" political landscape and an era of re-invention of different forms of activism in an effort to redeem our nation from the clutches of tyranny, censorship, and public lawlessness. 


 


How I wish that I continue to celebrate them as heroes on their enlightenment, political engagement, etc...but with these observed trends, leaves no options, but reactions engaging from the biggest fans. Recall the Halifa vs. the Foroyaa journalists on Freedom Newspaper....


 


 


Happy eid-ul adha to you and yours Haruna. 


 


Best always with much love,


Yero.

This is the most adroite I have seen you respond to Halifa's antics Yero. Better late than never. Hon. Halifa nor Hon. Sidia do not seem to me dynamic enough to lead an evolving political party. Perhaps that is why PDOIS is finding it hard to grow.



 












 Haruna.

Folks,














I join you all to show solidarity with our patriots, Mbenga,
Coach and Lady Sohna. To me, these folks have done me a personal favor and I
owe them forever. 














That said, all of you should be very careful that you don’t
give Halifa Sallah the attention he is trying to take away from these folks. It
is not only unfair but very dishonest of him politically to be writing the kind
of things. We will not tolerate any sort of romancing or petting this administration
when people are hurting beyond belief. 














-Lawyer Darboe has picked up a lot of momentum of late by
countering the administration on their brutality. Currently, Halifa needed to
follow Darboe’s footsteps or give us a break. 














-Right after the Raleigh get-together, the same Halifa was
seen coming after Modou Nyang, who despite being an active Diaspora and PDOIS
militant, was only giving his honest opinion. 














-Just an opinion from DA Jawo months ago was 
aggressively countered by this same Halifa in a way that neither made sense nor
offering any good. Halifa was in rage…and he wanted to show us he can beat his
chest. 














-Recently, Minnesota Congressman Keith Ellison and many other US
representatives in the capacity of Congressmen did the same thing that Mbenga
and the DUGA folks did. They were arrested for a worthy cause. Is Halifa not
following the international scene anymore? 














Halifa’s quoting of Dr. King in this case is very confusing
and a way of distraction. It was not only misleading but quite not politically
right in all sense. Dr. King organized Rallies and marched to Washington, the
capital. What is stopping Halifa from calling for a rally in Banjul? If Dr.
King was limited to what he could do at the material time, does that suggest
that DUGA folks cannot be independent and inspire a whole world by their style
of activism? Something to think about Halifa....















How Halifa of all people easily forgot that among the most
democratic people that this world ever born, Nelson Mandela (the great Madiba),
trained as an armed militant, instructed the defense of South Africa by any
possible means, and actively participated in such fighting to defend his country. Halifa who got educated in America needs not a reminder that America is one of the best democracies on earth, and its founding fathers fought to drive away the British aggressors of King George at the time. 














Halifa, we know you are reading these lines, even though you
will choose to take cover with Foroyaa as your comfort zone to be launching
your responses. It will be probably nice to have you on a “real time” chat. If
you are tired or being intimidated enough by this regime, it is time to step
aside. Personally, I suggested about a year ago, it is time for your likes to
step aside and hand over the leadership Barton to the younger ones of your
party, for I see you sticking to the 30-year old PDOIS agenda as barrier to
some progress, especially with some of how you’ve been showcasing on us. I don’t
need to via through anyone to get to God. Period! The younger ones can continue. 














What happened to citizens’ being in charge of their destiny
and all the good old preaching Halifa? Oh, well, talking about the drawing
board! What a laughter reference. I am quite embarrassed. You guys didn’t make
it in NADD, you didn’t make it after NADD, and you will not make it another
tetra-NADD. You Halifa would rather support Hamat Bah as an independent candidate
despite his betrayal of NADD in 2006, than working with Darboe. So essentially, refusing to unite (you as a key player whether you were wrong or right) has helped Jammeh to be winning more elections, of course combined with election fraud, terror, and all the nonsense. So what
drawing board are we talking about? 














If you are tired, just rest and allow us continue. We have
read some other books, being exposed to some other style of activism, and have
seen some other visions, and we are ready to die than to live with the nonsense
of terror or any of its support pillars, be it the tyrant or any of his massage
therapists. Walahi, you are lucky that the respect you earned before keeps
being a seal for you now. It is easy to probably see you are losing it by the
minute. This form of activism which came to define you and your party mates of
late is a total distraction to what is at stake. 














Long Live the Gambia!!














Long live the struggle!!!














 














Best regards,














Yero.
