HOW THE ECONOMY SINKS-KURU KONJIRA COULD NOT SEE THIS SIDE OPTV is back knocking on mad Yahya's door to deliver a message that is,transparency,accountability and probity are words that he forget at the door of Radio One FM station immediately after reading his so-called shameless speech on July 22nd dark day in 1994. OPTV understands that part of mad Yahya's strategies is to tell his cronies(in the open) to ignore the internet.Do not buy that,actually we were all told that mad Yahya listened to the radio Tam-Tam program.The worst thing on earth is for one to attempt fooling oneself. Concealing a deadly disease by ignoring surgeons does not save one from being admitted one day anyway.The wretched movie-OPERATION NO COMPROMISE is still reeling and mad Yahya is sitting on his chair in balcony right? He will sit but will not relax.Not all movies are palatable for those watching them.His movie will be affected by pop ups from OPTV and other sources to the extent that they will smash the projector and then use their heels to the gate.Where Binneh and the ghost of late Dot Faal will be waiting for the mad man and his lackeys. OPTV wants to analyse some basic mathematics with Gambians here and show everyone why it does not see where mad Yahya and cronies can be admitted on the list of decent minds.Liar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When the last lady Zeinab Jammeh hops in a plane as usual Gambians see a long line of so-called officials with her. Wives of real presidents are given privileges but most tof hem especially those from poor countries like ours do away with excess protocol and other fancy things that waste resources! Here we have a so-called lady that travels with an entourage which is far more or equivalent to the number of people that the vice president travels with! Why? Alpha Omar Konare's wife wrote a book,she sold it and used the returns for personal expenditures.She stayed humble and taught in class. Who is last lady Zeinab serving to warrant her to be hiring jets,and flying in the air longer than the length of time she spends in her house?! Who is she serving? When she travels we have a team behind her and let's use our simple arithmetic to expose mad Yahya's hidden side. Here it goes: Last Lady Zeinab Jammeh Daughter Myriam Sister Lady in waiting Protocol 5 to 6 guards Nanny maid (Thanks to our friends at the Limosine center). Now let us revisit the recommended rate for officials travelling on trips abroad and see? If those guards are considered Junior or below the cadre that earns less than 130 pound sterling,then they are supposed to be receiving 90 pound sterling per person every night.We all remember the reason why the ex auditor general was used as another scape goat?! Fatmatta was trying to dig into that hidden path.She had her open quarrel in the papers anyway.Some people accused her of exposing the rates that ministers were earning on newspapers! That is sick! How about the budget estimates that are being spread from the printing dept? Infact what should be secretive about how much public officials earn in the first place? Therefore 90 pounds mulitiplied by 6 people will give 540 pounds right? Please mulitiply that by 2 weeks at least.It will give nothing less than 7560 pound sterling.How many time does Zeinab travel in the year? Tell me because I cannot count that!Now look at what Kuru Konjira said ie;the YDE used to settle bills of hired jets?! We are yet to bring on board the cost of fuelling the jet which cannot be less than 50000 USD per trip/stop over.How about the landing fees and other services being provided by caterers on the ground? In all this mess we still have people who ask for more patience?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are we patient or docile? Bringing such calculations in the open is what news papers back home should be doing but no.Some will tell us that prices at the world market are high! Stupid!So leaving mad Yahya and his family lead such an extremely expensive life is what we call serving the nation? If one talks you are branded as the jealous and all sorts of adjectives. Every ex gendarme remembers how mad Yahya used to get angry at former president Jawara's kids! Mad Yahya is so fake that no reasonable person can live near for a day without detecting this stinking side of his sad soul. When serving under this mad man one has to have strength if not you will think that stealing is a national duty!OPTV has worse additions to reveal on mad Yahya himself. That will be done at a time that his cronies do not expect it to happen.No one can silence the determined.I think mad Yahya might have by now smelt the rat and understands that OPTV is not the group of people to be threatened. Here we have officials who receive courtesies all over the wolrd but none would ever think of forgiving the economy(I mean the lady herself and others who enjoy that privilege). Some cronies will come back and tell us that,yes she is a first lady.OPTV is attacking this lady nonsense thing because her mad husband got her when he stole power.He stole power under the pretext that he was coming to fight corruption.Fighting corruption my socks!!!!!!!!!! Liar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How can this life style continue and then people become excited to watch the wretched movie? Tarik Musa,Lang Conteh,Klark Bajo and his poor wife,Suma Jobe and so on. If combined they did not spend even a cent near what mad Yahya and his wife and little daughter have so far swallowed.How about the wealth that he refered to on TV? It was after that day some people started scrambling.If a mad leader says that he and his grand sons and daughters will never ever be poor,then what should we expect from others? No wonder Lang Conteh was being called Bill Gates! Gambians have to stop beating the traces and follow the real snake! The snake is mad Yahya nothing more nothing less and OPTV will certainly send him to the grave very soon.Disappointment is what makes some kill.Mad Yahya has disappointed a cause and he should not be spared despite all the defensive positions in and out of The Gambia mad Yahya knows inside his stinking soul that he will not survive this wavelength.I SWEAR TO THE ALMIGHTY ALLAH, THAT YAYA WILL BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR ALL.
