This morning when I read in Gambian newspapers that some ‘Blood Diamond Dealers’ were apprehended in Gambia and are in the custody of the NIA, I did not know whether to laugh or to cry (as my friend Hamjatta Kanteh would say). It was funny because little was said about the most important character in the story. Although everyone could see the ten-ton-elephant in the room, the Newspaper could NOT even muster the courage to refer to him by name. This is just hilarious. But on the other hand, we are dealing with a very serious matter that demands serious reporting; calling names and doing serious investigative work. We all know the ten-ton-elephant the Paper was too scared to mention: BAABAA (‘BLOOD DIAMOND DEALER) JOBE; United Nations and the whole world labeled him that, NOT me. The mental midgets do NOT even know how to plant a newspaper story. Do I need to tell them that they should NOT make it so obvious that they are hiding something? Anyone that has a functioning brain and followed (somewhat) the ‘Blood Diamond Trade’ knows that you CANNOT write a story about ‘Blood Diamond’ in Gambia without naming Baabaa (Blood Diamond Dealer) Jobe. The man has been proscribed by the United Nations for being the only Gambian ‘Blood Diamond Dealer’. Everyone knows that. I hope Baabaa (Blood Diamond Dealer) Jobe’s calculations do not backfire on him again. These morons are such amateurs it is not even funny. The Belgian and the Sierra Leonean that were caught might not know Baabaa Jobe very well or they might not know the ineptitude of the NIA. All serious law enforcement agencies in the world know that the NIA is only populated by the dumbest thugs one can get. These morons CANNOT even investigate a massacre that happened in broad daylight in the country. They have NEVER unraveled a bona fide coup plot in the country. All they do is lie about soldiers that belong to different tribes from Yaya. Going through the NIA record one will NOT find a single sophisticated plot the morons have ever foiled. Now, who in their right minds will think that the morons at the NIA can intercept a sophisticated ‘Blood Diamond’ deal? The whole world know that diamond dealers from our neck of the woods are under an intense microscope as we speak/write. You think the people involved in this high-risk game would be so inept to be caught by the ‘thorough’ investigative work (‘vigorous surveillance’) of none other than the morons at our NIA? Only Baabaa Jobe believes that. What is going on here is clearly visible to the naked eye. Someone close to the ‘Blood Diamond’ trade in The Gambia and someone that has serious connections at the NIA ratted on these dealers. Well, who is so above the law in Gambia that if he fingers someone as a ‘Blood Diamond Dealer’, no one would ask him how he knew them? Baabaa (‘Blood Diamond Dealer) Jobe. Think about it. In any case, I am glad that these criminals were caught. I hope that if and when they get debriefed by serious law enforcement agencies, they will shed more light on their ‘agents’ in Gambia. If I were questioning this Belgian and Sierra Leonean, the first question I will ask them would be: do you know a Gambian called Baabaa Jobe? Has he ever offered you a Gambian diplomatic passport? You get my drift. Rest assured that the NIA will NEVER bring up Baabaa Jobe’s name. Or if they bring up his name, they will torture this Belgian and the Sierra Leonean to say that they do not know Baabaa Jobe. When this illegal government did not have a Belgian and a Sierra Leonean to set up, they blamed the ‘Blood Diamond’ trade in The Gambia on the Sarahulehs that were working mighty hard to earn a legitimate living and had absolutely nothing to do with ‘Blood Diamonds’. Now, according to the newspaper, it is no longer the fault of the Sarahulehs. It has never been Baabaa Jobe’s fault. Now, it is the fault of this Belgian and this Sierra Leonean. What the Paper is missing is that there are high-stakes involved here. The sloppy journalism being practiced at Observer (whereby journalists do not even have the courage to call Baabaa Jobe by name) would have absolutely no impact on the international dragnet to capture ‘Blood Diamond Terrorists’ around the world. It is easy to see through these shenanigans. Just like the UN investigators laughed at Baabaa Jobe when he said that he did not know Viktor Bout (despite that he was confronted with a document bearing his and Bout’s signature), even mildly smart people will just laugh at this latest ploy to heap our ‘Blood Diamond’ problem on two foreign nationals. Our problem is Baabaa (‘Blood Diamond Dealer’) Jobe and Yaya’s PRIVATE plane. Our problem is the illegal APRC government that would take an internationally proscribed criminal and make him its leader in Parliament.
