President Yahya Jammeh continue to defy common sense. Is he just buying time to clinch into power? 




Endorsing AU Human Rights Resolution on Gambia

Let me state clearly and openly at the start that this article is not officially issued in any way whatsoever by GMC leadership, though the issues cannot be readily rejected.  Any qualms about it should be directed to me Nyancho personally. I shall make an appropriate response to any rejoinder.  

With the successful circulation of the audio-visual evidence containing Jammeh’s 21st September policy declaration of murder among the international diplomatic and NGO community, it remains to be seen how Jammeh could now blatantly misrepresent to African peoples and the African Union that he never made any such diabolical utterances. I support the said Resolution which strengthens my earlier stated position on the issue. Unless Yaya Jammeh publicly withdraws the insolent threats made against human rights defenders which include opposition persons, we shall not recognise the continuing legitimacy of a government that imposes a policy of killing against persons for protecting their rights. 

Together with our allies within Jammeh’s government we shall make sure that Yaya Jammeh fails in the capacity to execute his murderous oath, putting him on closed circuit circumstances. We are not oblivious of the treacherous propensity a sadist could evince in pursuit of those he deems a threat. The Wollof adage goes: If you know the enormity of what is pursuing you, you would stop your own pursuit of others. Make no mistake about it.

Evidence to prove Yaya Jammeh’s undeniable family tree shall be shared with the media soon. I am now fully convinced that Yaya Jammeh is not a true Gambian citizen, was never and has never been, but parading as one. I believe that he is precisely from Cassamance and by historical coincidence found himself a beneficiary of Gambian hospitality. By virtue of humanitarian circumstances he got PPP education and employment in his adopted country. Due to Gambian kindness abused for naivety, he got enlisted into the Force where foreigners like him should not have been permitted. I believe that no true Gambian with deeply entrenched and proven family roots or ancestry like Fatty, Halifa, Ousainou, or OJ, would have threatened to kill half the country and sleep soundly thereafter. Jammeh on the contrary said that this comes naturally for him with respect to Gambians, because he is not truly one of us. 

Jammeh is incapable of empathising with a nation he has superficial ties to, and that partly explains why he persistently insults and brutalises our elders because he has no affinity like us. That also explains why he has distorted the character of our law enforcement to our detriment. That equally explains why he has overgrown his pants by threatening to kill us for demanding our rights. Gambian hospitality is to blame for creating what inadvertently turned out be a strange element called Yaya Jammeh. Neither Ousainou nor Fatty or Halifa, O.J etc would have imported thugs from Guinea to mass poison our own Gambian families on the pretext of witch-hunting, and defend such barbarism. None of them would play inflammatory political chess with Guinea Bissau to provoke Senegal and to escalate the southern conflict.

None of them would have required Deyda Hydara’s family to go ask him in his grave as to who killed him, especially on national TV taking into cognizance true Gambian culture, but a non Gambian like Jammeh without our sensitivities did it. None of them would have ordered the merciless slaughter of little school children that fateful April, and certainly none of them would have imposed a reign of terror against our own people. Those politicians who impose such against their own people throughout history were all mentally sick, and Jammeh is not in that category because he isn’t even one of our own. 

Notwithstanding, together with our allies in his government and elsewhere, we shall hold Yaya Jammeh personally responsible for any harm befalling on any of our officers and supporters in The Gambia or in any part of the world, or on any Gambian or opposition and to make him practically accountable. If you declare to kill us, be prepared for your own death any how. 

The blood of a single opposition or Gambian human rights advocate shed by Yaya Jammeh shall be swiftly retaliated in kind. Yaya Jammeh, if you believe that Gambians are chickens to be slaughtered, you ought to believe that you may not personally be spared from that slaughter machine. Be reminded that the French monarchy conceived the guillotine and the monarchy itself became its ultimate victim. It could be very tragic for you to attempt against sources whose collaborators, reach and capacity you would not know or undervalue, while acting on the false confidence of your own reach, resources and accomplices. The basis for such grand false confidence includes your hired security apparatus, your unconscionable wealth and what that could enable you to do against your perceived enemies in anywhere. The truth is that you are a proven coward specialising in terror. We know the plans, and it shall fail. 

My friendly message to Yaya Jammeh is this: If you don’t amend your dangerous ways, and abandon your clandestine extra-territorial escapades around Gambia, Cassamance (Senegal) and Guinea Bissau, be assured that nothing would eventually avail you. The nefarious activities in Guinea Bissau and Cassamance are a threat to peace in the tri-state area and obstacles to peace shall be removed by more serious sources at work. Your game of the politics of deception and fear is outmoded and you must stop it. 

Generals Kinteh and Drammeh, watch your backs; Jammeh would find a way against you sooner than later because you don’t fit in his grand scheme of things. You both lack ancestral claims to Cassamance, and you are both from the wrong tribe. Only fools like few of my former force training school mates would remain slaves to him. Jammeh is in the process of building a house of calamity whose ignominious collapse on his crane is inevitable.

Those whom the gods would destroy, they first render them insane, and some insane by power as Jammeh. Like Pharaoh in pursuit of Prophet Moussa, they rely on false self-invincibility but doomed to perish at the least unexpected hour. The Gambia could easily be made a tiny prison for those who seek to eliminate others, and without daring to exit its frontiers. Like a hounded pest, you shall be at risk even under your bed, let alone in the open space, and we are ready for your moves; we are watching you. Yaya Jammeh, no more bloodshed, torture and grim night arrests in our country! The hunter is being hunted by his visible and clandestine preys. Take this message for a laugh at your peril. A word to a fool suffices! 

Wandifa Sanneh (Nyancho),
