Omar Joof,

What you have stated above is either due to ignorance on the part of the
Jammeh supporters that any governemnt is a servant of the people and very much
answearable to them. That the people have rights and can stand up for our rights
and criticize the APRC regime so they think their efforts should be geared
towards silencing us by labelling us as being motivated by hatred if we exercise
our rights. Or, this labelling of Gambians who stand up against this regime
that is corrupt to the core and killing and incarcerating Gambians on an ongoing
basis is very much deliberate and they think it will succeed in stopping us
from standing up for our rights.

The supporters of the regime are sufferiging from a condition that arises
from trying to defend the indefensible against all the evidence, so they can only
adopt this stance of trying to silence Gambians from telling the World what
is really going on in our country because they also know that the truth is very
damaging indeed. It si called damage control except it ani't working at all
no matter teh approach because there si just too much evidence to support the
claims made by the anti-jammeh camp.
