People familiar with French history will remember Marie Antoinette’s storied contribution to the brainstorming that was going on in Louise’s court as the King and his men find SOLUTIONS for feeding the French peasants right before the French Revolutions. When Marie Antoinette heard that the peasants were complaining about lack of bread to eat, the Queen suggested that the peasants should eat cake if they cannot find bread. This just showed how out of touch the monarch was with her subjects. The woman did not even realize that peasants that could NOT afford to buy bread were in no position to buy cake. Brings us to how vermin like Yaya and Sarjo Jallow view Gambians. The other day, it was with amazement that I read that despicable low-life calling herself Sarjo Jallow’s niece boasting about Sarjo Jallow attempting to bring a soft-drink factory to The Gambia. Gambians are having problems getting adequate, clean drinking water, and the vermin are talking to us about ‘wonjo’ (soft-drink). Just goes to show these people’s priorities for the Gambian people. People CANNOT eat two square meals a day with their families. Hospitals are without medicine. Yaya and his cohorts boast about a TV Station when the overwhelming majority of the Gambians have NO electricity. Just so Yaya can come on TV and make a fool of himself, the vermin risked bankrupting one of the most productive institutions brought to The Gambia by PPP (Gamtel). The AFPRC/APRC government is a government of misplaced priorities. They stole enough money from the people to be able to lead ‘flamboyant’ lifestyles. Yaya does NOT care if the rest of the country is electrified or our roads are good. The vermin already electrified Kanilai. He also stole from the people to buy four-wheel-drive vehicles that will make him not feel the poor road conditions. All the road network in the country was either constructed by the PPP government or funding for the road project was obtained by the PPP government. There is NO road project in the country that first came to being after Yaya took over. As we speak/write Gambians are being informed on the ground how AFPRC/APRC did NOTHING for the country in terms of development apart from stealing PPP projects and taking credit for things they did NOT originate. Even the ‘University’ Yaya cronies boast about is just a mere amalgamation of tertiary institutions PPP ALREADY built in the country. All these morons have done is steal from the people. They are all filthy rich thanks to the dollars they stole from loans given to Gambia by Taiwan. But the vermin are NOT satisfied with the tens of millions of dollars they stole from those loans. Yaya makes sure that he has a BRIBE from any important contract involving the government. CSE bribed Yaya for the road projects by building his villas (including a bunker) in Kanilai. Even the generators that were just delivered to the country earned Yaya some bribes. This is NOT talking about the drug dealing and ‘blood-diamond’ and gun-running Yaya is involved in with thugs like Baabaa Jobe. There is ample proof that the airplane Baabaa Jobe manages and which lists Tarik Musa and Amadou Samba as owners actually belongs to Yaya. Yaya is the most corrupt person our country has ever seen. And he is surrounded by the most corrupt people in the country. None of them can legitimately account for the assets they obtained in the last seven years. That is why they are prepared to kill innocent Gambians in order to stay in power. But enough is enough. Gambians will no longer be intimidated by these thugs. I just read somewhere how Ousman Badgie and Baboucarr Jatta are touring the military installations in the country. In Farafenni they met a fellow going by the last name of Keita (probably another Jola). What I see going on here is the nepotistic Yaya surrounding himself with Jolas to use the army to perpetuate him in power. Yaya is the most despicable tribalist in the country. But what he does NOT realize is that he might put Jolas in high-ranking positions in the army, but that will NOT save him come October 18, 2001. There is no way Gambians are going to let a bunch of thugs like Ousman Badgie and Baboucarr Jatta steal power from the people. On October 19, 2001, ordinary citizens numbering in their hundreds of thousands are going to escort Darboe to the State House. If vermin like Ousman Badgie and Baboucarr Jatta want to put their lives on the line for a fellow Jola, let them be my guest. There is no way we are going to allow a child murderer to steal this election. These people CANNOT fail the Gambian people and then continue to impose themselves on us. Everybody knows that Yaya has lost the confidence of the Gambian people. APRC have to literally force people to attend their rallies. Local politicians that oppose APRC are being dismissed from their posts willy-nilly. Only the few Gambians that are benefiting from APRC corruption are following these morons like slaves. APRC is doing everything to steal the elections. They focused on Gabriel Roberts and the IEC and when they realized that it will be difficult to use IEC to steal the elections, now they are resorting to the army and Yaya’s Jola clique. Well, let me tell them that the clock is still ticking. The Jola clique in the army that is benefiting from this diabolical regime will be met with anything they want.
