You remind me of D Warren Lambert, an eminent history professor at my undergraduate college, Berea.

Of course you didn't say Nana Grey Johnson is your "role model" but that perspective is extractable from your query "did Jammeh buy every one", followed by that distinguished name. Context is vital and your construction allows for my interpretation, but critically, I'm also saying I couldn't care less about Nana Grey Johnson's slanted perspective on Gambian public life.

Ljd,  I never mentioned Nana as a role model, in fact I don't know the fellow besides recalling his name from Gambian papers.
Furthermore, my observation is not only based on him but several other prominent Gambians praising jammeh. The other day on grts I heard alh. Mansour njie together with other elders from bjl continue to praise him. In my recent trip to bjl, everything seems quite and normal. It didn't feel like jammeh ever existed. On the contrary, things are different in the eyes of the diasporans. So are we seeing better than all those find men.../

They are trapped in their own reality worlds such that when they look through the mirrors, they see nothing bad that they are doing. They don't see the tears of the oppressed nor do they acknowledge the injustices being meted out by the terror regime. Some of them will be the same people dancing to another regime once Jammeh is booted out. A case in point was recently when DK's own soon wrote about Jammeh's development project from 1994 to date. What a shame that was! We know it is not sincere. How come they are not talking about the other happenings...the kubeyjara, the arbitrary arrests, killings, etc....when you think about it just for a little, you realize the level of selfishness and hypocrisy loaded in some of these dangerous minds.

Those politicians out to fool citizens must be reminded that enough is enough. They can kiss A** all they want, and doesn't move me an inch, other than probably a lesson to ascertain that they are with the criminal ruler. That part I appreciate much and I don't have to sit here guessing about the idiot's position on matters Gambia.
