I add my voice to commend DUGA for their brave efforts to close the Gambia DC embassy. It is only the beginning and must be followed by greater efforts throughout the world and in the US.
 

 Haruna.

Coach and DUGA folks,
 
I fullly support and endorse your actions at the Gambian embassy at DC.  I think this PDOIS editorial is uncalled for and those of us who sympathise with the party must say so,  There is no one who is more of a PDOIS militant than Pa Samba Jow and I do not think after more than 25years of being a militant,supporter and defender of PDOIS one would think that he does not own his mind.  If the DC Embassy action can be called EMOTIONAL AND INEFFECTUAL ONE WONDERS WHAT WAS HALIFA SALLAH'S ACTION all about AGAINST PRESIDENTJAWARA AT ROCKSY CINEMA ON AN ELECTION DAY DURING THE FIRST REPUBLIC.  These actions have symbolic meaning and they do send a message.  For one it amplifies and brings to notice what is obtaining in the Gambia where people have no chance to take direct against the state OF TERROR UNDER DICTATOR JAMMEH. 
 
Pa Samba, Mr Mbenge and the dynamic Sohna Sallah, your actions were noble and have great significance in the struggle against Jammeh's tyranny, it should be replicated in all the country's where Gambia has a representative.   Keep it up.
 
Best,
Mboge

I know many people will disagree with me including Pa Samba, but the fact remains that PDOIS has always being an obstacle in our fight against Jammeh. Remember their stand on the referendum, or the fact that Jammeh was qualified, as was any other Gambian to contest elections, or their many theories on how Koro Ceesay's death might have been an accident.

Coach, I know this is directed to you and DUGA but I have to agree with you that the write-up is petty and insulting. They do not have to insult folk using four letter words only. If this came from PDOIS, which I think it is, then they are in essence saying that if Pa Samba works with them then that is progress but if he works with others then he is a robot, better yet, an idiot. It appears that PDOIS is not pleased with Pa Samba thinking for Pa Samba. This is becoming a pattern with them, for I saw the same move put on Nyang some months ago when he wrote something about them that they did not like. This time around, Pa Samba did not write about them. Is PDOIS that insecure, to the point that they will mutilate those who affiliated with them, just because? And the Garwaleh! They need to get use to folks thinking for themselves. They have been educating Yaya for twenty years, can they tell us what that fetch them and Gambia? How is it that Pa Samba was not a robot working with Halifa, Sidia, Sam, et al but all of a sudden is a robot working with Ous, Haddy, et al? And please let none assault our intelligence that this is not about Ous Mbenga and Pa Samba. Yes, one can think of them-self as Gambia's brains, but you still have one vote no different from Joe here any way you slice it. Why would an organization go after an individual or two as if they do not have enough worries of their own? PDOIS had their way in dealing with Yaya for almost twenty years and Pa Samba was there with them for most of the way. Why all of a sudden label him a robot? I do not know all of Pa Samba's current affiliations, but I am guessing that he is not not currently active with PDOIS, for that insinuation is all over the write-up. Yes, PDOIS has every right to make any statement they want, any day or time, but so do the rest of Gambia. And no, I am not adding fuel to no fire but speaking ma' damn mind, emotion or otherwise. Yeah, keep thinking on higher ground while Yaya clubbers the shit out of all of us. On the contrary, the control insinuated over Pa Samba is with whoever wrote the piece. Pa Samba et al, I appreciate your stance and more of us need to take similar action. I hope when folks pick up arms against Yaya these lecturers do not hold a placard in protest "Against Violence".  

Joe
