Alieu and Aunty Jabou, thank you.
This poem is my reaction to what I observed so blatantly manifested as to
where the Gambia
is heading to. Thanks Alieu for depicting the picture as clearly as it can
be.
The level of hypocrisy and ethnic nationalism to which our national politics
has degenerated is
quite frightening. And nobody is talking about it. People have spent years
trying to build a
culture of a Gambian national identity, only to be reminded in this trying
times that it is
all about tribes and ethnicity. To hell with programs and agendas of a
national import; all the
emphasis is now on which group or tribal groupings can dislodge the
government in Banjul, and
replace it with one of their own. Ours is now a politics of acrimony; tribal
or ethnic nationalism,
and sheer intellectual foolery. What a shame!
