there he"THE ALHAGIE" goes again starting his address with the name of
GOD.YAYA let me tell you something including you cronies.
most of us do know that the origin of government came from enslavement and
brutalizing each other,but it should not be so in the world we live in
now.the reason why we need a government in todays' world is for police,
justice, and national defense.
we need the police to protect us from the coercive powers of others and
to protect us from violence,but not the other way round."killing and using
force against the people.
the role of the judicial system is to protect our GOD given right from
the invasion of others including your stupid inefficient government,and the
national defense to protect our sovereignty,not to murder the civilians.
the people of the of the Gambia deserve something better,they don't
deserve a moron.the gambians deserve to have their freedom,their liberty,and
to pursue their goals,and to be happy.if your government was stick to these
roles,the tragedy that unfolded could have been avoided.a government that is
above the law,and things that it is invisible is a authoritarian government
and will do anything to stay in power,even if it means killing her
people.you jemus jammeh,you came to power illegally,you are
disgusting,inhumane,and barbaric and this includes anyone who support you
for his/herself interest.
tombong we are waiting for you,this is not the gambia that you can do
whatever you want.you and your like are a disgrace to the gambia,and you
paranoia,insecure and low self-esteem boss must and should go.
