Baboucarr,
If you think that his ideas are informative and educative why bother what
kind of name he used. We are in the world of technology,let the brother
breath.Nothing personal.

>>The news that Yaya went to the hospital to see the
>>children he had ordered for their killing but were
>>fortunate to be saved by god was the climax of his
>>mockery to the bereaved families and the entire
>>Gambian people. Don’t be surprised therefore if by
>>next week he goes on the air with recommendations to
>>have the families compensated financially by
>>government for the death of the children. The Kaninlai
>>butcher is now on his usual appeasing strategy. After
>>killing so many Gambians and then successfully
>>wriggling out of them in the past, he now believes he
>>has perfected that demonic talent to the point where
>>he could get away with the worst kind scenario.
>>Killing the school children would be something he
>>would celebrate in his private moments and might
>>perhaps boast happily about sending the kids six-foot
>>deep. He must resign for this crime.
>>
>>There are certain things that I am sure he would now
>>be working on to survive his crime in the eyes of the
>>general public. He would start distancing himself from
>>Isatou Njie Saidy and her team that tried desperately
>>to defend the shooting. It is even possible that he
>>may fire some of them if the public pressure is
>>sustained in the face of his slick efforts. There is
>>no doubt in my mind also that he would be banking
>>heavily on his newly appointed minister of justice Mr.
>>Pap Choi Yassin Secka to cover up for him where every
>>thing should fail. So Mr. Secka must brace up for the
>>two critical options on his drawing board. If he does
>>not make things good for Yaya and clears his name
>>altogether, he should be prepared to get the sack very
>>soon like all his predecessors suffered. For example,
>>if Mr. Secka for a moment tries to confirm the
>>undeniable fact that there were no rubber-bullet guns
>>used but AK47’s with live rounds in the operation, he
>>would be seen as deviating from the expectations of
>>Yaya and would no doubt lose his new job. Certainly,
>>the establishment of that truth should be the opening
>>passage to almost all the facts, because those who
>>lied about that would be forced to confess. And their
>>confession would clearly hang Yaya by the balls. But
>>on a more limited perception, Mr. Secka may choose to
>>join the bandwagon of the intellectual prostitutes for
>>the purpose of keeping his job and not considering the
>>permanent destruction of his historical image. The
>>usual argument that the veteran lawyer is well
>>cultured and schooled and would not therefore
>>compromise his integrity shall never sway me,
>>especially after experiencing Fafa Mbye’s era. Too
>>many outstanding intellectuals have gone down in
>>history with monsters like Adolf Hitler, a reality
>>that still puzzles the minds of analytical historians.
>>Samuel Doe went down with a lot of them as well, not
>>forgetting Bokassa and Musa Trawalleh the child
>>killers. So Yaya the latest child killer would
>>certainly sink with some of them as well.
>>
>>Apart from depending on his new Minister of Justice to
>>help him out, Yaya would also retreat to his oracles
>>(jalangs), at kaninlai. He would therefore sacrifice a
>>lot of cattle and other animals for charity,
>>distributing thousands of cola-nuts to praying grounds
>>and soaking himself in nasty liquid charms “saafara”,
>>with the strong conviction that it would work for him
>>to escape his criminal actions.
>>
>>
>>But I want to remind him how those foolish things
>>don’t work for him most of the time. After the
>>Farafenni attack for example on the 8th of November
>>1996, he instructed his former guard commander
>>Lieutenant Landing Sanneh to carry out one of the most
>>primitive rituals in the barracks. State guard
>>personnel were sent to bury several bags of ordinary
>>salt everywhere in the camp. This could be confirmed
>>with those soldiers serving at 2Infantry Battalion,
>>Farafenni barracks. When we asked Yaya why, he said he
>>was advised by his juju-man to do so which would be
>>the final guarantee that no army camp would ever be
>>attacked by surprise again. Eight months after, on the
>>21st of July 1997, Kartong was attacked in the most
>>surprising manner ever imagined. When we met him
>>after, the idiot had totally forgotten about the
>>previous year’s rituals and had to tell us that he had
>>dreamt about the Kartong attack weeks ago but that he
>>had performed stronger rituals that made it a failure.
>>
>>
>>In that same year in 1997, he almost died from another
>>ritual he was trying to perform with wild bees at
>>Kaninlai village. Captain L. T. Tamba was there and
>>was a live witness to that embarrassing incident. Yaya
>>trying to mystify himself before us told everybody
>>including his guards not to follow him under one big
>>tree where he said he was going to discuss certain
>>things with his ancestral bees. He even warned us that
>>if we followed him under the tree, the bees could
>>sting us and that would mean death to any one stung.
>>So we stayed away from a reasonable distance watching.
>>However, shortly after he stated acting as if he was
>>talking to the bees buzzing around their hives on the
>>branches, the insects suddenly attacked and almost
>>killed him while he ran all over the dusty bushes. If
>>it had not been for the guards, his ancestral bees
>>would have probably sting him to death. Yet the moron
>>had to later send an old haggard-looking woman from
>>the village to tell us that the bees attacked Yaya
>>because they were upset with him for not greeting them
>>when he first arrived in the village that morning.
>>This is not a joke Gambians; this is the real
>>mentality of the president leading our country. If he
>>should therefore dream that killing school children
>>was the right thing to do as may be prescribed by his
>>“jalangs” he would do it and later retreat to them to
>>save his neck.
>>
>>Turning to the soldiers now, it is important for you
>>to know how badly Yaya has destroyed your image all
>>over the world for the very crimes he has been
>>committing particularly in this last one. After using
>>you in this unforgivable crime, he is now pretending
>>not to be part of what happened on April 10. So all of
>>you have a great responsibility to worry about. You
>>must  clear this negative image by doing what you are
>>suppose to do for the Gambian people. If Yaya would
>>not resign, you must remove him out of power and call
>>for the civilians to organize elections within three
>>months and give them the political power that belongs
>>to them. That would be the only way you can restore
>>your credibility once more. Yaya being around you will
>>destroy all the prestige and honor you used to enjoy
>>as professional soldiers. YAYA MUST RESIGN!  YAYA MUST
>>RESIGN!
