It is true that our women has been long since, subjected to staying at home, cooking and taking care of children and in addition to that day by day punishments such as beatings and insults even if the woman is right by the husbands, saying women's reaching to heaven, "will be" from her husband's hands. While some husbands are leaving their wives at home with all that boarding of taking care of the children the house and etc following other women. BLEACHING became more common in the Gambia because every man is looking for musu koyo sasaboro to bilittle the natural beauty of women.
How can woman heavenliness come from the husband, if most of the husbands are playing around with Musu koyollu? If you see an African married woman playing around, is because she has no food to eat. Again Gambia before and during the independence era, few families were willing to take their women folks to school due the above concepts. If the women folks have the possibilities emphasizing the fact that they are also capable of whatever men folks can, why should there be any kinds of grudge feeling from politician like Bah? who I think should be encouraging the women folks than discouraging them. If women folks are building mansions or driving expensive car, their abilities and capabilities have given them those ranks.
Besides there are very few women working as activist comparing to the men folks who were and still are mismanaging our economy in most of the privet sector or in the NGO by using the rural women's name. What actually is the national assembly and its members doing to help the women folks? Let Mr.. Bah look around him if words to comment on, are finished in his mouth.
