NARROW NATIONALISM AND PARANOIA-YAHYA'S LATEST ATTEMPT, 13 BADJIE HALT!

Looking at the present situation in our sad and unfrotunate Republic one
can feel the pulse and really know that everything is boiling.
At first Yahya blamed Gambian men for being lazy and unproductive so he
laid the responsibily of the ailing economy on them.During his last so-
called meet the people's tour(two years ago because he was scared to go
this year),Yahya insulted our parents and belittled our people,who he
reduced to being subjects.
We all know that the archives at the GRTS have revealed how mad and
insulting he was.Yahya is not rude,he does not even know what he is
doing.There is a big difference between madness and rudeness.Rudeness
stems from a disciplinary issue but madness is deeper because that one is
neurological.Anyone who scans Yahya's head or makes him go through an MRI
test you would certainly come to realise that our poor Kanilai snake has
lost it.Yahya's sensory perception sees blurred pictures and sadness where
normal human beings see brightness and progress.He the mad man sees
laughter where horror is rearing it's ugly head.He is paranoid and
lonely,please compare that to the analysis that forensic scientists
revealed on people like Ted Bundy,the Uni bomber and others? Yahya enjoys
hearing bad and he breathes that air.
Even those close to him know that reporting to Yahya means sending bad
news to his closet.If he is angry with someone anyone reporting on that
person has to say some nasty stuff or else that person maybe associated
with the one he is angry with.
OPTV was ofcourse not cooking a story when we revealed his intensions in
one of our postings,THE BANJUL DAKAR COLD WAR.

Let's analyse IGP 13 Badjie's speech today and see where the idea of
narrow nationalism is being justified through ECOWAS protocol?!!!!!!!!!!
ECOWAS protocol was created to integrate economies and open borders but
not to distinguish between Gambians and non Gambians in the job market.13
Badjie was either misinformed,lying or scared to stand against the current
tide from mad Yahya.
Well IGP Badjie should start from the state guard then.How many non
Gambians are gurading Yahya where qualified Gambian security experts are
lingering and being denied that chance? This issue of narrow nationalism
is what will finish Yahya forthwith.Let them consult Konan Bedie in France
and ask him how that mad approach landed him in hell?
Gambianising Yahya's latest sad and mad attempts to stay in power is the
saddest thing one can do.Infact IGP  Badjie should have been at the house
of parliament sitting side by side with the secretary of state for foreign
Affairs before uttering such nonsense!
Qualified Gambians are no longer in The Gambia all of them have been
chased out of the country by either economic hardship or fearing for their
lives.13 Badjie should condcut further research and see the latest
research paper on the brain drain from Banjul.
The issue is not qualifications,priorrities and so on,it is more about
Gambians being squeezed and fried by Yahya to the extent that they have
given up hope.
How does Badjie expect Gambians to be at the market as vendors and so
on,when their nuts are still left at seccos? How can Badjie refer to that
protocol he does not even understand when the IMF is asking mad Yahya to
reduce jobs?
How can Badjie interprete laws that affect the subregion when he resorted
to legal experts in order to be able to know whether parliamentarians were
immune to arrest or not? Can someone who finds it difficult to decode and
decipher our own local laws help the situation when it comes to ECOWAS
Protocol? Ofcourse he cannot.Was it not Halifa who helped clarify that
part for Badjie when the police was being used to step in the YDE's and
other cases that involved members of parliament?
At the same time we have this guy trying to sell mad Yahya's narrow
nationalistic feelings by leaning on and also misinterpreting the ECOWAS
protocol?!
Infact if need be why didn't the IGP invite those traders and ask them to
air out their feelings and their own interpretations live and direct?
In The Gambia today under mad Yahya the approach is always top-bottom,no
bottom-top. How can Yahya afford not to fail? He is always being
encouraged on whatever he starts wrong or right! If Yahya wereto turn
around today and say that he was joking and happens to invite Tarik Musa
and others on board these same lackeys will come back here praising Musa
like griots! This is a sad situation and it can only end in sadness.
I was apalled to see the IGP link his lesson on law,economics and
sociology turn around using the wretched movie: OPERATION NO COMPROMISE?!
Let Yahya not compromise with people, this stupid fool.Do people even want
compromises from Yahya?! As I said before,Yahya will never compromise with
anyone who intends to share the looted stuff with him the chief gangster.

When 13 Badjie says security will not be compromised and then turns around
warning would-be demonstrators it makes OPTV laugh.IGP should know that he
can contain somethings but not everything. Mr Badjie had to remember that
he has been grilled before because of the race against time and money with
Babanding Sisoho?
He should be mindful because such words are uncalled for and he should
also remember that,Abdoulie Kujabi was more powerful and that rat has
already been soaked in a pot of urine.
13 Badjie should tell us why a qualified police officer like Jai Sowe was
demoted all of a sudden after he took over instead trying to interprete
texts that he does not understand.After all why on earth should and IGP
even think about warning diplomats more over doing so on a news papers
that is read world wide?
This can only happen in The Gambia.I would also invite 13 Yahya's latest
envoy to ask Yahya whether that part of the law should not affect his
Pakistani Judge? How about the mercenaries within our legal system? How
about marrying a Moroccan? What else has Yahya got to say to
foreigners,other than thank you.He married a foreigner.He is being guarded
by those foreigners.He has foreigner as chief Justice.He himself maybe
one.He was voted into office during his last false elections by
foreigners.His pilots are foreigners.His political cuban doctors are
foreigners.He eats food from Morocco a foreign country.His bank accounts
are in foreign bank accounts.
So 13 Badjie you better halt and keep your mouth  shut?!
