A breath of fresh air sorely needed.
 
To the newspapers The Point and Foroyaa, please refrain from unbridled  
competition for news and pitting citizens against one another. The spirit ought  to 
be a furtherance of national enterprise and dialogue. This is hardly the  
issue to demonstrate journalistic prowess. One paper is a news and information  
outlet. The other is a party organ which aims to educate on civic matters. It 
is  a high wire act when we expand our scopes for circulation sakes. At the end 
of  the day, you must reconnoitre and determine what added value your paper 
is to  the lives of your audience. It is tempting to confuse roles in a lawless 
 society. But the overarching goal is to trim around the edges of these and 
those  extremeties.
 
No single human being is any more important than the lowliest among us in  
matters of national enterprise.
 
I thank UGAMA in their attempt to further inform us.For mine own part, I  
view it as not taking sides among citizens but to stay true north toward goals  
and objectives. Not all citizens may agree on more than two items but all  
citizens must bear their compasses in unison. Perhaps the uncertainties of  
lattitude will be tempered by similar uncertainties in longitude. Gaucherie,  
charlatanry, and sycophancy are not the domain of the singular individual among  
many when the discourse is commoner good.
 
Haruna. God speed!!
