Perhaps you should reconsider your conclusion stated as follows -
"because i have extensively studied and researched trends in African
leadership and came to a conclusion that the very people that are
responsible tend not to be the dictators themselves, because they are
often one step ahead of the illiterate masses in the educational ladder,
but that upper echelon, the highly literate who made it all possible for
the leadership to rule which ever way they desired. The unfortunate sons
of the continent who rob their own people of the basics of human life."
I doubt that the misfortunes of The Gambia or Africa in general can be
blamed on an abundant rapacity of the "highly literate."

Mr. Omari,
i disagree with this part of your suggestion,
" He also needs someone to help him write what he wants to say. As long
as he is the president of The Gambia he must keep his mouth shut and let
those who are qualified by education and experience handle what he has
shown himself incapable of doing."

If we could learn a lesson, it would be our failures of selfish worldly
pursuits that had happened a gazzilion times since the beginning of
time, but we will remain at a state of loss until we return to the very
greatest, who controls it all. Then and only then can we make progress.
Not the highly educated, because as far as i am concerned, i think a
farmer can run that Government and do as good a job as any educated
individual since he would be representing not only the people but his
own situation.
The educated find it so easy to cheat, rob, silenced the uneducated
poor. We have been doing it for decades.
