Sanusi
it seems to me that we are in a very big dilema here.
If the intellectuals refuses to take up appointment it
means these incompetent people will continue to govern us
and if they take up appointment they join the sinking ship.

The debate we had around Sillah bais dismissal should have
been a wake up call but instead it is ignored. This guy can
sit there and do whatever he wants bearing in mind that he is
the best guy for the job. This hiring, firing and reinstating is
something that is really beyond my comprehension.

Sanusi, how many of those fired ministers have ever commented or critisized
the Jammeh administration? - NONE....  They are all sitting down there with
the hope of being reinstated.

Have a nice day
Matarr
