Thank you Suntou.
 
I agree that despite our difference I too agree with you, I respect the neutral stance you maintain between our honourable religious leaders.
 
Differences between religious leaders had happen since the time of the respectful Shahabah (May Allah be pleased with them). However as Muslims we do not judge between them and their differences is another blessing for the rest of us. They always intend good.
 
In our country we have a crook in Jammeh who dances while holding the Holy Quran while a dirty music is being played. We have  a mad dictator and bully who encourage men and women to wrestle with each other even though some are the wives of others. These is Jammeh the crook who encourage all these unislamic acts and yet he claim to be more of a Muslim than the Honourable Ba Kawsu Fofana.
 
There are some who do not know the members of the Honourable members of the Supreme Islamic council. They keep saying things about them of which they have no knowledge about and that is quite very worrying. I wish some of them meet them in person and maybe they will have a change of mind. Maybe they will understand that the whole saga is not the Honourable SIC but Jammeh the crook.
 
An attack on the Honourable Supreme Islamic Council could be seen as an attack on Islam itself and that is very worrying. It can  create serious reactions and that is not healthy for our Gambia.
 
The person causing all this fitna is Jammeh the crook, these attacks should be directed at him and not the Honourable Supreme Islamic Council.
 
I do not know if you have listen to Jammeh's comments on Raki TV, however he (Jammeh) went as far as insulting Islam. He (Jammeh) claim that all the troubles in the world are of Muslims and that in The Gambia he has never received any complaint about the different christian denominations. It is either Jammeh is lying of he is blatantly ignoring reality. We all know from history that even in the UK the Northern Ireland case is a religious division of the same religion of Christianity. We all know that in India the Sikh and the other Hindu are very much opposed to each other even though their belief is the same. In Scotland the divide between CELTIC and RANGERS is on the bases of Catholics and Protestants.As a matter of fact we in The Gambia have not reached this stage. This was a very simple matter between knowledgeable people and all of us including Jammeh should have encourage them to resolve the matter in private. No , Jammeh idea was to humiliate and belittle the Honourable Ba  Kawsu Fofana. Jammeh interprets the silence of the honourable Ba Kawsu Fofana to mean a fear of him. Mad Jammeh fail to realise that in the Mende societies IE ( Mandingo, Sarahule, Jahanke speaking dialects), one does not speak unless the elders allow you to speak. The honourable Ba Kawsu Fofana was was just being respectful to his elders and Mad Jammeh capitalise on this.
 
I know we may our our differences in worldly affairs but in terms of Islam neither of us will allow the the smallest attack on our faith.
 
All other politicians  in The Gambia have maintained a neutral stance but Jammeh. He capitalise on it to make himself look bid to his delusion.
 
Thanks for the re joiner

Drammeh,
Notwithstanding our differences, you have said the right things in the message. The so-called difference is an irrelevant diversion. In every country, politicians don't leave religious leaders alone, be in Rome, the U.S, England etc. In fact, the British Prime Minister approve the nomination of the ArchBishop, likewise the several Baptise Conventions across America. The other way of controlling religious bodies is through the Charitable regulations. Hence, the SIC cannot operate without the government's interferences. Whichever government is in place, the SIC will most work with them, just like the Christian Council, and other religious bodies.
My little contribution on the subject will be posted later.
God Bless

Dear All,

I appeal to all of you to limit our issues on politics and politic leaders noit because  of nepotism or any other selfish reasons but because of the sensitivity of religion.

It is very easy for dishonest elements like Jammeh and co to exploit the situation.

The Honourable religious leaders may have their disagreement and our role is to promote the peace between them. Our honourable religious leaders may act to the dissatisfaction of some of us but they will never do so intentionally.

The wicked dishonest, big munafiq and iblis is Jammeh the crook. He should have maintain a neutral role and should not even get involve. He could have invited them in private and resolve the matter in private. No no no, disnonest crack head Jammeh choose to make a political capital out of it.

Wicked Jammeh went as far as insulting the Honourable Ba Kawsu Fofana. Lying Jammeh even went as far as claiming to have more knowledge than the honourable Ba Kawsu Fofana.

I have a £20, 000.00 offer for Jammeh to recite surah Tauba. Munafiq Jammeh and lying , disrespectful Jammeh cannot even recite Surah Fatihah properly.

Arrogant big headed Jammeh choose the occassion on national TV to insult the Hourable Ba Kawsu Fofana.

Arrogant Jammeh lied before the whole world that he can cure AIDS. How can such a lying rat be better than the hounourable Ba Kawsu Fofana.

The honourable Ba Kawsu Fofana went to state House with his  honourable paternal uncle and he was merely being respectful to his paternal uncle and that is reason for his silence.

Who the held does Jammeh think he is?

The time is right to kick this big bafoon out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
