Kwame was very harsh on his opponents. In his mind opposing him is not a civic responsibility and right but unpatriotism. 

He also like to seek refuge under anti-colonial sentiment.

Sure he's. Pan African leader but that's not exactly democracy.

Most dictators run an autocratic government, with no real checks and rule totalitarian regimes, staying in power by controlling the mass media, using the state police and spy agencies, restricting or removing the rights of the citizens. Dictators often cultivate a cults of personalities, using propaganda declaring them flawless, with school children taught to sing their praises.  

So on a scale of 1 to 10, where will you put Yaya (I put him at 10), Jawara, Nkrumah and even Sekou Toure?

Halifa Sallah secretary-general of PDOIS on Saturday briefed the press on “Agenda 2016” which has been launched in The Gambia by the opposition political party. Agenda 2016 “a provisional manifesto” of the People’s Democratic Organisation for Independence and Socialism, PDOIS, was formally launched at a mass meeting held in Wuli Barrow-kunda village in the Upper River Region, on Sunday 11 May 2014. PDOIS issued a summary of the contents of Agenda 2016, as follows:

A Third Republic Ushering in the Sovereignty of the People

PDOIS Agenda 2016 Publication Launch was graced by thousands of residents of Wuli Barrow Kunda , URR, and its environs on Sunday , 11TH May 2014 – see photos.

Strategic Objective of PDOIS Agenda 2016

The strategic objective of PDOIS AGENDA 2016 is to build a Third Republic ushering in the era of the sovereignty of the people commencing in 2016. PDOIS is of the view that the highest political expression of the right to self determination and Independence is the founding of a sovereign Republic on the basis of the consent of the people, which legitimises their equality in citizenship and sovereignty.

Hence, before 2016, PDOIS has the aim to conduct sensitisation sessions nationwide to ensure that all Gambians are cognisant of the fact that citizenship under a Republic guarantees the sovereignty of the person.
