Haruna, Would you please stop assuming about my political leanings with regards to La Guinea?] Bailo. What did I assume about your political leanings with regards to La-Guinea? Afterall they're just you leaning as usual. I'm here to friggin push you to the right side. [The reason why the Real Prof Conde is an attractive choice for many people is because of his consistent opposition to the dictatorships of La Guinea from Manjuh to Dadis. Consequently he endured exile and jail for his belief and quest for the ultimate destiny of his compatriots with real democracy.] Bailo. This is incomplete Bailo. Its good, but incomplete. The rest of the story is that while Hon. Conde' challenged graft and graffignette on these occasions, Cellou Dalein and Sidya were both working with one of the Manjou-Dadis series to undermine his efforts. This is why Hon Conde' is a far superior human than either Cellou Dalein or Sidya for the proud people of La-Guinea. This is the reason why SIdya was not able to convince his supporters to vote for Dalein when the latter is set against the honourable Conde'. [I hope that he does not disappoint them and Africans in general.] Bailo. Africans in general can wait at Tann. We are presently concerned with La-Guineans. It will be an insurmountable burden to charge Hon. Conde' with the happiness of Africans in general. Because you are among the Africans. Just kidding Bailo. You and I will accompany Hon. Conde' and afford him our wise counsel. Trust me, we'll be alright. We know how to solve our own problems. If clueless division and ethnic crimes don't get in the way. [On the other hand, the reason why Dallen and Seedia are an attractive union to many La Guineans is but for their defiance of Dadis and his thugs, the military junta would not have stood aside to organise free and fair elections within the fulfiilled time frame.] Bailo. Bailo, I'm glad you said this. I knew you were thinking it all the while. Let me share some ideas with you. 1. Dalein and Sydia were NOT an attractive union to the most La-Guineans. The elections proved that to you and me. In the tussle between MANY and MOST, we go with MOST in as much as comparative spirits are concerned. 2. You will be comforted to realize that I encouraged and urged the sept. 28th demonstration. You may not have been aware but when I was informed that Dadis was contemplating a run for the presidency, and that he was supported by a group called "Dadis must stay", but that when a few voices were raised that Dadis ought not contest an election he was shepherding, this group would attack the counter-argument. I was outraged as were many La-Guineans. I shared my views on The GDP website that even though the "Dadis must stay" group had every right to demonstrate their desire for Dadis to contest those elections, even though I did not agree with their position, I suggested that instead of attack this group, the countervailing opinion that Dadis must not contest ought to come out in their overwhelming number to demonstrate such, as long as it was done peacefully. If you were following events in La-Guinea at the time, you will have recognized that the rhetoric and violence on the part of the "Dadis Must Stay" group had mellowed. I was informed that Dadis had taken heart to the suggestion that the group is legitimate and must allowed to freely demonstrate. WHat he did not take into account was that the countervailing forces vives would also consider the suggestion for them to come out in their good numbers to peaceably demonstrate. (I want to assure you that the engineering behind the Dadis group did not escape me at the time. I just regarded that as inferior in the face of the countervailing Forces vives and that it was not wise to disband the group at that time. This is because if that group were to disband for whatever reason, the Forces vives demonstration on sept. 28th would not have occured. I know you don't believe me. Just bear with me a little) You will also remmember that demonstration was not a Peulh demonstration. It was a Forces vives demonstration. And it included Jean Marie Dore', one of the leaders of the forces vives who precipitated the reversal of fortunes for Dadis. Therefore when you insinuated that I didn't care about the lives lost on that fateful day, you incensed me Bailo. This was because it was the Peulh victims whose plight was most broadcast. If you actually looked at the detail of those who died (~150) you will find out that the Peulh were not the majority. I want you to do this research on your own and please disregard the charlatans. We're talking about the actual dead, injured, and sexually molested. More happened outside camera-view than the lady you saw naked on the ground and the guy you saw being carted away by the police. There were 150 more severe victims for DaarManso's sakes. I know you Africans love TV. But do the homework. You will also understand that Jean Marie Dore, Sidya Toure, and Cellou Dalein sustained comparatively minor injuries. It was not a UFDG demonstration organised by Cellou Dalein and Sidya. It was a forces vives demonstration organised by the forces vives and Dalein, DOre, and Toure all suffered injuries and embarassment. If you agree with me on this narration Bailo, you cannot therefore say that the Dalein/Toure union after the 1st symphony was attractive to many La-Guineans because of the 28th sept. events and their participation in it because you would have had to somehow qualify the apparent animus Dalein had for Dore when the 1st symphony came around, and you would have had to qualify the grace Dore' commands among those "many La-Guineans". And if you don't agree with me on my narration of events, you would have to go back to the days prior and immediately after the event of sept 28th, 2009 to satisfy yourself one way or the other. This will then bring you to the ultimate question; If you take Dore' out of the equation to accrue more gravitas to Dalein, then in a contest between Dalein and Conde', Dalein must therefore be more attractive to your "many La-Guineans", right? WRONG. This is because even before the "Dadis Must stay" group began their demonstrations in the streets, The most honourable Conde had parted ways with Dadis and his CNDD. WHen Conde perceived ambiguity on the part of Dadis as to whether he would contest the elections or not, Conde' categorically expressed that to contest those elections was not a choice for Dadis and that it will be unacceptable. The Hon. Conde also set about seeking mediation from the international community to put pressure on Dadis to announce publicly that he would categorically not run. This put Conde in Dadis' black list and inured threats from the "Dadis must stay" militia. Conde had to leave La-Guinea on several occasions because of the looming threats on his life. Once again. And Conde's RPG was a part of the Forces vives just as UFDG, PEDN, etcetera were all part of the forces vives. In fact the opposition parties and civil society groups formed the forces vives. They had some disagreements among themselves as to who will lead the forces vives, but as far as the demonstrations were concerned, that was a common decision and design. I can assure you that if Conde was at that stadium on that fateful day, he would have been "accidentally" killed, not just bruised like the others. That was a determinant moment for Dadis. You will recall that when Dadis got wind of the demonstration being organised, who did he call to warn? He did not call Conde. He did not call Dore, for all we knew, he did not call Dalein either. He called Sidya Toure. Why do you suppose that is? Sidya could not control what the forces vives was going to do after it was set in motion. If Dadis had called Sidya before the decision was made to demonstrate, I can guarantee you that Sidya would have tried to stop or impede the demonstration. Sidya is that kind of man. I want you to also review the relationship between Dalein and Sidya prior to the latter's 3rd place showing in the 1st symphony. Bailo, La-Guineans know all these things because they lived it. Diasporan La-Guineans also know this but their votes were strictly along ethnic lines. Thank God their votes were not consequential. Do not try to accord Dalein and Sidya's union undue accolade at the expense of their partners. Dalein is only attractive to those who voted for him because of their common ethnicities and because of future remunerations if Dalein were elected. That is the hard truth. The majority of La-Guineans just happened to be more than the number of Peulhs in La-Guinea. I encourage the Peulh to consider forming other majority NOT BASED STRICTLY ON ETHNIC NUMEROLOGY. That will be good for all La-Guinea. 3. Dalein and Sidya's union includes others such as Sylla, Bah, Diallo, and others. Conde', Fall, Kouyate, Kourouma, and Fofana's union also included Bah, Tall, Bangoura, Camara, Samassekou and others. Therefore you cannot rely on Dalein and Sidya's participation in the 28th september events to explain the votes of those who voted for Dalein. I know you want to Bailo, but I encourage you to reflect a bit further. The remainder of their two unions were also part of the forces vives excepting one or two parties which were formed too late to have a history in the forces vives. But they and their militants participated in that demonstration of 28th sept. nonetheless. So let's try another reason why any La-Guinean voted for Dalein when the other contender is Conde'. [Dadis was becoming just like his predecesor.] Bailo. Tell me about it. I wished you were so vociferous on this at the critical time. When it mattered Bailo. This is another reason why I was terribly disappointed at the odious aspersion you tried to cast on me. One who has toiled much more than you in the story that is La-Guinea. [However the jury is still out on the real commitment of Conde and Diallo to the tenets of democracy.] Bailo. Thank you. And when either of them ascends to the presidency, we will not abandon them to the jury. We will accompany them in sobriety so that perhaps we can save another La-Guinean life. Any government will be judged every 5 years in La-Guinea. We just want to make sure they will be judged for more benign activity. Thank you Bailo for affording me this rare privilege to share some recent history with you. I normally like to make my activities impactful from the git go so I do not have to retell friggin history. If I were any louder Bailo, I would have keyed maasef. Next time pay attention to what I'm doing. I think you get too ethnically sensitive sometimes without thinking further about the ramifications.

I will represent the charge here for you: "ANY ONE WHO KNOWINGLY WORKS FOR A CRIMINAL ADMINISTRATION IS HIM/HERSELF A CRIMINAL." This does not include all public servants. Civil servants are generally understood to have been hired through a merit-based process. Any civil servant who was hired outside of that process, or who was fired/terminated for theft of the public treasury or abuse of authority is included in the charge. You will therefore be comforted that not all civil servants or public servants are criminals. I hope this clarification alleviates some anxieties for you.

Haruna, Thanks very much for your kind and encouraging comments although I feel flattered by some of your remarks about me. I would however still urge you to reconsider your principled stance that "ANY ONE WHO KNOWINGLY WORKS FOR A CRIMINAL ADMINISTRATION IS HIM/HERSELF A CRIMINAL." This is because I believe you may acknowedge the fact that not every person employed in the Civil Service and Parastatal organisations of the Gambia aids and/or abets in what Abdoukarim Sanneh aptly describes as the regime's criminalisation of the Gambian State. On the contrary, it is only a minority of employees of the Gambia Public Service that usually engaged in such reprehensible acts against our collective interest. Please reconsider as the majority of our Public Servants are honest and dedicated and they deliver invaluable services to their compatriots under very difficult working conditions. None should make the mistake of painting everyone with the same brush. Please reconsider. I expect that as someone who has proven to be capable of illuminating wisdom, you would again feel obliged to do so on this issue.

To: [log in to unmask] Date: Tuesday, 23 November, 2010, 6:27 Bailo, this is a well-written and thought-out argument. I commend you for it. It demonstrates a remarkable maturity and discernment capacity on your part. However, And this is not in amicus to the idiot Omar Jallow, the only thing I would add is that it is never OK or advisable to work FOR an administration that extra-judicially kills, maims, tortures, or abducts citizens of the nation. You can call it good civil servants, patriotic citizens, or otherwise but if you accept employment from an administration knowing full well it had and continues to commit un-investigated crimes, you are yourself a criminal. It doesn't matter whether your intentions are good or not. And we must not massage ourselves into thinking we're working for the nation as a whole in those circumstances. The least such a person could do is to explain their purpose for aiding and abetting crime and criminality and if the citizens don't buy his/her explanation, to apologize in order to prevent other self-less/fish fellow citizens from falling in that trap of circular logic. Generally, forgiveness from your fellow citizens and the victims of such an administration served by you will be based on the following: 1. When and how did you enrol in the Administration? 2. What was your assignment and accomplishment in your new-found role? 3. What did you do or say when the Administration committed any of the crimes of Arson, Kidnap, Abduction, murder, or other extra-judiciary crime? 4. Did you participate in or were you accused by the same criminal Administration of participating in crime, financial or otherwise. 5. When and how did you leave the employ of the Administration? ANY ONE WHO KNOWINGLY WORKS FOR A CRIMINAL ADMINISTRATION IS HIM/HERSELF A CRIMINAL. No ifs, No ands, No buts about it. There is always room for forgiveness however, depending on your crime. That forgiveness must be sought and earned. There are some people who claim they are joining a criminal administration for the good of the country. Don't listen to them. As soon as they are given custody of the nation's treasury, or some modicum of authority, they loot and abuse them. And when they fall out of grace with the CRIMINAL administration, they want their fellow citizens to do cartwheels in their putrid defense. The rest of your notes are obvious second-nature resistance slogans. Its the economy stupid, its dignity and freedom stupid, its my left eye stupid. You're a great man Bailo. Frankly I'm glad you put up some resistance with the idiot Omar. And how do we know you're not Omar Jallow Bailo????? hangh, Hangh? I luh you men.

The following article by me is culled from the online Freedom newspaper: Gambia: It's about freedom and dignity, Stupid! It's about freedom and dignity, Stupid! By Bubacarr Bailo Jallow In 1992, Bill Clinton adopted the slogan "It's the economy, Stupid!" to drive home his key message about President George H. Bush's shortfall in effectively tackling the weakness of the United States economy. Concerning the Gambia: "It's about freedom and dignity, Stupid!" is highly appropriate to depict the major human rights deficit being suffered by Gambians and to convey local as well as international concerns about the frequent abuse of human dignities by the Gambian regime. As in the use of the word 'stupid' in its above-quoted original context, its adoption here should not also be misconstrued as referring to anyone as a dotard. Although, I do not perceive any person to be inherently stupid. I believe that what a former primary school teacher of mine used to stress to us in his class applies here: "Some of you are just lazy to think, please think! think! think harder, harder! The answer is simple! Answer to what question, one may ask: I have always contemplated answering the following pertinent question which is usually posed by supporters of the Gambian regime: Why does some Gambians seem to take great delight in continuously, fiercely criticizing the AFPRC regime of President Yahya AJJ Jammeh? I particularly felt the imperative need to attempt answering the above question when an ardent supporter of the AFPRC regime described criticism mainly directed by Diaspora Gambians against the regime of Yahya Jammeh as "propagation of vicious attack against the APRC administration and its supporters." However I opted to first double check my initial understanding of the words 'vicious' and 'attack' from a number of trusted English language dictionaries. When I did so, I had to go further and relate this allegation to what Gambians have been experiencing since the July 22nd military seizure of power. The indubitable truth is that it is always supporters of the regime employed in the nation's security forces or members of the APRC regime's militia initially known as the 22nd July Movement and subsequently renamed the Green Boys who had viciously and physically attacked opposition supporters merely for the latter's exercise of their constitutional rights. The reverse is not true. What was alleged as "vicious attack" against the Gambian regime and supporters could probably otherwise have been an erroneous reference or description by this particular APRC supporter of justifiable condemnation and rejection of the policies and actions of a repressive and intolerant regime. Moreover, such concerns expressed or demonstrated by Gambian and non-Gambian personalities and organizations alike over the Gambian regime's blatant and persistent human rights violations have always fallen within acceptable norms and standards under both Gambian and International law. The physical and psychological tortures, unlawful killings, disappearances, arson attacks and general lawlessness usually encountered by critics or perceived enemies of the regime from the members of the security forces or Government militia should neither be deemed an insignificant matter nor muted over by any conscientious person. On the contrary, every concerned Gambian and genuine foreign friend of the Gambia is always saddened by human rights violations perpetrated in the Gambia. APRC supporter Omar Jallow recently wrote: "I am waiting for the day that we as Gambians will agree to disagree, and I hope that I will not get another rejoinder from some Mr. “Know It All” who will assume that since I have never lost a beloved one under the watch of the current administration is the reason I am supporting the APRC government, which is kind of childish way of thinking." I am yet to hear or read anywhere a so-called Mr. Know It All claim or even imply that people who oppose the Gambian regime do so mainly because they either have their friend or relative killed or made to disappear by the APRC regime. It is not also the case as the APRC supporter seemed to have implied above that there is no supporter of the APRC regime whose relatives have been tortured, unlawfully killed or made to disappear by the regime. On the contrary, there are some supporters of the regime who had unjustly terribly suffered at the hands of the regime. One such person is Lamin Waa Juwara who arguably could claim to have been the most persecuted Gambian by the current regime, yet he is now a supporter of the regime. On the other hand, there are a number of prominent former supporters of the APRC regime who had themselves subsequently fallen victim or even had their lives unjustly ended by the very regime that they promoted and defended. For example, Daba Marenah was never opposed to Jammeh. What is however undeniable is that you would hardly meet a politically conscious Gambia who would frankly not be able to name at least one person who has either been tortured or killed or made to disappear by the APRC regime of Yahya Jammeh. Is it any coincidence that such a worrisome reality did not exist under the tenure of the PPP regime? Why should some Gambians insinuate that others also ought to emulate them in conveniently ignoring the unprecedented human rights violations in the Gambia? Unfortunately there would always be contemporary Gambians who wish that atrocities or inhumane treatment by the regime against others should be not be regarded as any serious matter over which the regime is exposed in the media, criticized or rebuked by Gambians and non-Gambians alike. I say to those Gambians, you would never have your wish fulfilled. You may prefer silence and indifference in respect of such crimes but there will always be people, Gambians in particular, who will speak out against injustice and criminality in the Gambia. All Gambians cannot not be deterred by any person or authority or circumstance from speaking out . "The diaspora opposition is so out of touch that they will attack even the civil servants and ministers just for doing their civil duties. If our opposition leaders or their supporters refused to work, but will ridicule anyone that accept a job from the APRC government, then can you guys please tell me what do you guys want from the 1.4 million or so to do for themselves, if they don't work while we are here in the west including myself to do with their lives?" (Omar Jallow) We should not be oblivious that false pretense is a thriving enterprise in the Gambia because of a widespread fear factor and selfish opportunistic motives that the regime promotes and seems to depend upon for survival. A former acquaintance of mine once personally described to me the current Gambian regime as akin to a violent hurricane that destroys any person or structure that stands on its path. This particular individual further rationalized that as such any wise Gambian would seek shelter from the regime as a clever person would shelter from a passing destructive hurricane. True to his words or not, this particular guy went on to serve as a Cabinet Minister in the regime. Up to this day, I can't figure out whether his stint in Cabinet was simply a perfect art of sheltering from the regime in the regime or merely a genuine change of heart when the call to national duties came to him. It could also possibly be a smart career move of CV enrichment in line with what I once read from a political pundit speculating as a key motive for some Gambian intellectuals’ desire to serve in the regime. Whenever I meet him again, I would try to find out his reasons. However, I believe that no fair-minded person would slap the 'guilty by association' label on every Gambian who associates with the current regime. This would be wrong because there are a lot of honest and dedicated selfless hardworking Gambians who have honorably served under the APRC regime and many still continue doing so in our nation's public service. Regardless of these especially trying times, our nation would continue to rely on true public servants, be they in government or in political opposition to the regime. What we don't need and cannot therefore tolerate or celebrate are sycophants, killers, torturers; witch-hunters, arsonists, and parasites in our society such as we have seen on a worrying scale since 22nd July 1994. In my humble view, Gambians ought to regard and treat one another as members of one big family. What someone would not want to be done to him or her or their son or daughter or friends or relatives, he or she should not likewise do to another person. As I would not want myself or any member of my immediate family to be ever harmed or killed by any person or authority, I would likewise refrain from trying to harm or kill anyone and would urge the same. It’s as simple as that! Is that asking for what is unreasonable or unrealistic or even too much? Unfortunately for some Gambians, this is still too much to ask for or expect.

Source : Autres : Dernière Mise à jour : 22/11/2010 (Auteur : .) Dans la vie de tous les jours, il est des actes qui honorent tandis que d’autres déshonorent un Homme ou un groupe social, professionnel ou politique Depuis la proclamation des résultats du premier tour de la présidentielle guinéenne le 27 juin 2010, le compatriote Mamadou Cellou Dalein Diallo ne cesse de « verser notre figure à terre » (expression populaire ivoirienne pour dire honte) devant le monde entier. Il ne fait de doute qu’il prononce chaque jour le mot sacré : démocratie, sans en comprendre le principe et le sens fondateur. Donc un peu de leçon pour mon frère Mamadou Cellou Dalein Diallo ! La démocratie, avons-nous appris, est d’origine grecque. Elle a été introduite dans la cité quand l’oiseau minerve, après le dur labeur de la journée, a pris son envol. Ce qui libéra l’esprit lequel se mit à réfléchir et créa le pouvoir du peuple par le peuple et pour le peuple : la démocratie. De l’époque à nos jours, la gestion de la cité s’effectue par le politique sous mandat de la majorité. C’est en cela que les élections (choix) ont le sens de départager des candidats. Et ceux-ci, dans le respect de l’esprit démocratique, acceptent le verdict des urnes dont le principe est l’isolément lors du choix du candidat de confiance. Ce choix est un acte de conviction, car il est conscient et consciencieux. Lorsqu’il est exprimé, tout candidat digne, honnête et surtout patriote, s’incline en reconnaissant sa victoire ou sa défaite. Mais souvent, c’est au vaincu de s’avouer vaincu. Cette noble attitude donne à la politique la noblesse qui caractérise la démocratie, en tant que valeur universelle, même si chaque société produit sa propre démocratie. La Guinée vient de donner jour à la sienne en déjouant tous les pronostics qui ventilaient, ici et là, le chaos, bien cher aux ethnostratèges. Les voilà encore dans les traineaux de la complotite inventant des preuves virtuelles et imaginaires de massacres de Peulh qui n’auront jamais lieu en Guinée. Souvent, et de façon démocratique, le vaincu prend la parole pour montrer, à la face du monde, son attachement au respect des électeurs en acceptant sa défaite dans l’honneur. Ce simple geste est un acte hautement responsable et honore celui qui l’accomplit. Il est une invitation des électeurs pour des prochaines échéances. Mais que constatons-nous depuis l’annonce des résultats provisoires d’une élection qui est reconnue par la majorité des Guinéens et nombreux observateurs comme ayant été libre (parce que les électeurs sont partis librement aux urnes), transparente (puisqu’elle s’est déroulée dans le respect de la loi électorale en présence des représentants de chaque candidat et de nombreux observateurs, non Guinéens) et démocratique (du fait qu’aucun n’a été ni inquiété, ni forcé dans l’expression libre de son choix) ? Alors l’obstination de Mamadou Cellou Dalein Diallo devient, à partir de ce moment inquiétante, non pas pour la Guinée, mais une peur pour sa santé mentale parce qu’il est un compatriote, et surtout pour nous avoir représenté onze ans durant, sans avoir reçu notre mandat. Et c’est à ce titre que nous devons l’assister, sinon demain, nous pouvons être accusés de non assistance à personne en danger. Du coup, la multiplication diversifiée et contradictoire de ses déclarations, dont le dénominateur commun reste la victimisation, paraît attentatoire à la sécurité publique et à la sûreté de l’Etat guinéen. Par conséquent, il n’est pas exagéré de s’interroger s’il n’est atteint soit d’une schizophrénie, soit de la paranoïa. L’appel aux experts, dans ce contexte, est toujours la règle d’or pour le sauver. L’acte est pressant, d’autant que sa posture fait de vagues dangereuses parce qu’entraînant de pauvres enfants dont les commanditaires sont tous partis actuellement de la Guinée pour se retrouver aux côtés des leurs à l’étranger tout en poussant ceux des pauvres guinéens à la rue. Cyniques personnages, n’est-ce pas ? En tout cas, les accusations faite, devant la presse, du premier ministre Jean Marie Doré et du ministre de la sécurité et de la protection civile, le général Mamadouba Toto Camara, de diriger la répression contre son ethnie est l’un des symptômes de cette atteinte pathologique de notre ancien PM voleur. Ses propos sont dignes d’un homme public qui vient d’échouer, à quelques milliers de voix, dans l’accession au fauteuil présidentiel. Et pourtant il briquait la magistrature suprême ! Comment peut-on, même dans un avenir proche ou lointain, la lui accorder tant son discours égo-ethnocentriste est porteur de la haine envers les autres composantes sociales guinéennes? Le malheur est qu’il a éclaboussé nos respectables compatriotes de la Moyenne de Guinée Faisons tri de la bone graine et de l’ivraie pour la paix sociale en Guinée ! En ce moment crucial, n’avions-nous pas entendu le sinistre Bah Oury déclarer qu’ils peuvent affamer la Guinée entière quand ils le veulent (l’expérience a été faite, juste après les résultats provisoires du second tour : flambée des prix des denrées, dévaluation à outrance de la monnaie, par exemple, 100€ s’échangeait contre 1 million de FG). Comment ce club de mercantilistes peut-il être porteur de la graine de la démocratie guinéenne à semer désormais pour le bonheur de nous tous alors que, comme l’écrivait Kylé Diallo : « [Ses membres] ne pensaient qu’à leurs containers… » pendant que l’Alliance arc-en-ciel, elle, réfléchissait au changement en Guinée? Au regard de tout cela, les Guinéens doivent se donner la main pour construire avec le Président élu la nouvelle Guinée dans laquelle la cohésion et la paix sociales permettront le développement durable de la nation. C’est possible en refusant d’écouter les incendiaires, mais irresponsables accusations et propos du candidat vaincu, que j'interroge : Victime perpétuelle que fais-tu de l’intérêt supérieur de la Guinée ?
