Jatta Njie,
I can assure you Yanks is not affecting Ousainou's chances of becoming
President of Gambia OR NOT becoming President of Gambia. Yanks is defending the
honour of his parent against an uncouth moron.
Go back to sleep. Ousainou's political demarche for the people of Gambia
and his party goes on unabated, whether that leads him to become President or
not. The Presidency is not the overarching desire of such honourable men
as Ousainou, Hamat, OJ, Halifa, Hassan Musa, Waa, or Hon. Fatty.
Haruna.

Frankly, I'm very disappointed that Yanks put up this animated attack
against Mr. Drammeh for his reference to lawyer Darbo as a coward.At this
rate you are coming across as one bad boy Uday Hussein on rehearsal. And I
think you are doing more damage at Mr. Darbo's chances of becoming
president than what you perceived Mr. Drammeh is doing.And I'm urging
Mr. Mballow to discourage that kind of tone coming from an individual
claiming to be an immediate family member of lawyer Darbo. I urge Mr.
Mballow to ask the family of lawyer Darbo to refrain from validating the
accusations that the Darbos are untouchable.
Sincerely,
Lamin Jatta

attacking me personally. Thus this will be my last response to Yanks until he
grows up. About your expectation of Halifa and co taking on Jammeh and
removing him from power, I will respond separately not to you but the members of
the L.

initially advised that Ousainou should not be deemed to be a coward for
seeking sanctuary at the Senegalese High Commission but then not not only did
he, Drammeh, subsequently personally try to prosecute Ousainou he
ultimately went to the extent of sentencing Ousainou to life on the
'Island-of-no-return-from-cowardice'. Seriously, If Ousainou were a coward or a selfish
opportunist, he would have by now joined the APRC regime in some capacity" By
Bailo Jallow Bailo; you speak the language of the quran in the above
statement, i could not add anything more to it. Unfortunately, the only person
who is still oblivion to this fact is Mr Drammeh. As he wondered why he
was condemed for his blasphemy. Lord Devlin once said " a rebel is
> right in thinking that he has a right to rebel against society, but he
was wrong to think that society would condone his rebellion ". Mr Drammeh
started his diatribe on 5 April 2009 on the Gambia post. At first i did
not want to read it or participate in it. But the post was not enough for Mr
Drammeh. So he brought it to the Gambia L, who knows where else he was
heading with it, if did hep him to put sense in him, Fredomnewspaper, BBC, CNN.
That was the reason for my timely intervention, which was two weeks later
on 17 April 2009. Contrary to what Mr Drammeh struggled to allege, I did
not start by attacking him. I started by asking him to explain what was his
yardstick to confirm that Ousainou is a coward. He never bothered to
asnwer this. I tried to help him understand the rational behind Darboe's
actions. I even went as far as explaining to him that what
> Ousainou did was not cowardice but that of a Lawyer exercising his
convention right, under the 1951 Geneva convention. However, just as Saihou
Mbalow, Haruna, Suntu, Ginny, and many others had tried and failed, I had
also failed to convince this man that Ousainou is not a coward. However, to
make matters worst and unlike his reactions to others, this ballooney
started fabricating stories about me being chased by Major Bojang. That was very
much uncalled for, then he wondered why i had to go after his lineage.
The simple truth is that Drammeh thinks he is a clever man, but he is a
fool! He claimed that Ousainou is a coward; I am a coward, because i ran away
from Major Bojang; Haruna is a coward, because he wouldn't bother responding
to his emails. So, he expected me to do, what derided, as "the Darboe
thing". This hero boy failed to understand that what he was
> insinuating was an insult to all Darboe's without realising. Yet he
finds it offending that his father was dragged into the banter. If
Drammeh only claimed to be a PDOIS, NADD, sympathiser, our exchanges wouldn't
have gone this far. Simply because, Drammeh, is not the only Talibe of
Halifa Sallah in this forum. However, his difference to the rest is that they
know their bounds whilst he doesn't. You can support a party without
insulting others. However, once you attack or insult other people's party, you
cannot expect them to condone your actions; fact. Drammeh could have done a
good job by just stating the fact that he is a PDIOS supporter or even go
further to praise Halifa, Sidia and Sam as the power of trinity . Write books
about their bravery and see if i care! As far as I am concern, if
Halifa, Sidia and Sam are that
> brave, they would scold Yahya by the throat and drag him out of State
House. But they have not done that yet, have they? So what's the fuss about
their gallantry? As for the actions of Dr Jaiteh, I do not wish to
comment. I knew Dr Jaiteh at Kotu Bojang's compound in Brikama, i do not think
he would remember me now, that's if its the same Dr Jaiteh. I had high
regards for the man then then and will continue to have that for him now, even
if he decides to exclude me from his national bantaba. I had been
excluded from the Gambia post, then Yusupha and George reinstate me few months ago
without my authorisation. However, i still chose not to contribute on
there beacuse their actions are only akin to that of Yahya Jammeh. I hate
censureship and cannot see a moral justification for it. For that reason i
commend all those who stand against
> it here. I will go silent for now, but will surely come back if i heard
any more Lawyer Darboe diatribe. I rest my case! Yanks Darboe The
Darboe's don't run and are not cowards, simple!!!!

> Members of the L know that my attacks on Darboe were not personal at
all and all I did is to talk about issues. My brother Musa Drammeh won two
elections for the PPP in 1987 and 1992 in Sandu. My cousin Chondi Drammeh
stood for election for the UDP in the 1997 parliamentary election and lost.
However much they are attacked I will not take it personally and I was still
opposed to the PPP even though Musa Drammeh was a parliamentary secretary
under the Jawara government. I oppose the APRC government even though Susan
Waffa-Ogoo who taught me English Language until I passed my Common Entrance
Examination was/is Secretary of state under Jammeh. My dad's elder brother
Alhagie Bineh Drammeh stood for the GPP in 1987 election. Despite my
relations with the above I will not react if they are attacked for their
policies. Despite Yankuba Darboe's relation with Darboe he should never have
> reacted the way he does simply because Darboe is his relative. I only
attacked the action of Darboe. As matter of fact I would not have come to
this conclusion should Yankuba Darboe not started trading in insults. I was
not allowed to contribute to the L while Yankuba was allowed to continuously
call me a liar. Despite all these I refrain initially to respond to
Yankuba in the way he started. Yankuba went as far as insulting my Dad who has
never ran for office of any sort. Thus there was no need to attack my dad on
the grounds of "emotional reactionarism". Some in in L call me a PDOIS
supporter. Yankuba Darboe went as far as calling me an NIA. He even accused me
of being an APRC supporter. No no no I have never been an NIA never will and
I have never supported the APRC and never will. however my opposition to
Jammeh is not geared towards the hatred of his language grouping. It is
geared towards my opposition towards his policies. I still have a very
> good relation with Susan Waffa-Ogoo despite our political difference.
The last time I was in The Gambia I even visited her home. As a matter of
fact some of Susan's friend thought that she was my mum.

the services of The Gambia Red Cross Society, was shot dead in headquarters
of The Gambia Red Cross Society. This was my friend and his name is Omar
Barrow. When I went to The Gambia in 2004 I visited his widow Awa Sanneh. If
there is anyone who should be angry I should be the angriest. I lost a
personal friend. My anger however will never be geared towards the hatred of
Jammeh's tribe but my opposition of his policies. This is what principled
people do. They act and they do not react. I believe in a Gambia of Productive
economy, I believe in a Gambia where labour is rewarded and not mere the
labour power being paid for. I believe in a Gambia where every one should
live in liberty dignity and prosperity. I believe in an enlightened Gambia. I
believe in the Gambia where Presidential monarchy is demystified. I believe
in The Gambia where

for The Gambia. It is time we throw away the vices of tribal sentiments and
concentrate on the national interest. It is time for honest leaders to
emerge to at least to support the honest and brave ones we have at the moment.
In Sedia Jatta, Halifa Sallah and Sam Sarr we have honest, brave and
principled leaders and thus they should be supported despite our sentiments.
