Hi There,
Unless the gambians learn what is the essence of leading with no strings
attached,then and only then will we organise without chaos. In an
organization like NADD since it is an alliance it does not matter who leads
since any decision making by any member should be discussed and scrutinized
before being executed. NADD's main Agenda as I have critically analysed is
to get rid of Jammeh, which in my own point of view will be fruitless if
after Jammeh is gone they would hustle and grapple
for position. I don't see any gratitude in this Organization since there is
no appreciation of each other and some of them have a hidden agenda
manifested by how their selection of a Flag bearer is Marred by Chaos. NADD
in my opinion is an alliance of politicians conciously toppling a government
democratically, while blindly moving to the future with their different
political philosophies hidden
in the closet. All NADD leaders that form the Alliance have different
political philosophies and if selecting a leader creates confusion, what
about forming a cabinet tommorrow and executing responsible governance. I
wonder if they will have the interest of The Gambia at heart and loyally
serve the people. I wonder what the future holds for the Gambia If such a
disintegrated alliance have our future in their hands, They will not be any
Better. Do not judge me wrong, An Alliance of leaders should promote, but
does not possess, Empowers, but does not take credit and lead without
dominating just as Halifa Sallah is being doing. But in my point of view it
should not be a fait accompli Alliance, all of them should be involved in
the political decision making and work in unison to accomplish goals with
effective planning, but if they are already falling apart who knows what
lies beneath the surface. How can NADD leaders, be resourceful individuals
If they can't have a balance in their dynamic Interaction with each other
and come to a conclusion, How can they inspire people if they are not loyal
themselves.
This is just my opinion and is open for debate, I know the truth hurts but
embracing it will only make us a better people. We will all disagree only
to agree at the end because the truth prevails and we are all bound for it.
Peace
