Sanusi,
I am just baffled by seemingly loyal opposition members who had
some strong and viable criticisms of the APRC just switching
sides based on insidious sounding reasons. I read in the
independent where some of Dibbas comments on the APRC, were put
to him and he flatly denied them. What ever happened to real
men/women owning up to their words. I am just wandering what
Jasseh-conteh thinks of this looming change of heart by his idol.
Young Gambians are supposed to look up to the elders of today
but it seems most of these elders are pre-occupied with lining
their pockets and safe-guarding their turfs no matter what. I
went back and re-read some of the comments of Ebou Jallow and
Sheriff Dibba and the fact that they can just switch so easily
makes me question their commitment to pursuing the truth and
justice in the first place. The selfishness in our country is
our biggest problem and until our leaders and elders start
thinking of Gambians first rather than themselves, their family
and friends, we are in for serious trouble.
I know a lot of young Gambians who are going to school here
and eventhough most would like to go home someday, many others
are making plans to make America and England their homes. The
situation in The Gambia is really sad and I get dissapointed
anytime I see someone whom I thought was honest, display their
true nature of self-agrandizement demeanor. I am waiting on the
post on SM Dibba. Maybe I have a better insight inot the minds
of these people.
