Hello Yero
I endorsed Mr Kah as the person of year
 I just couldn't imagine the bogus charges. Mr Kah's case is assault on freedom of speech.  It is unfortunate when members of political association are bogus charge and yet their individual parties are preaching constitutionality and rule of law.Yero certainly with unfortunate situation and ineffective opposition to stragise positive action many like me have lost the momentum.Mr kah and amadou sanneh are victims of the making of Gambian politics.

Person of the Year 2013

Folks –

I have decided to take the trouble again to choose my person
of the year 2013. At a very trying time, there are still those with the courage
and spine to say it as it is. Mass Kah, an employee with Foroyaa Newspaper
called the shots. He was quoted to have said, “Why not paste the photo of His Excellency
the president on the Sky?” (The Point Newspaper, November 28th
2013). He was arrested shorting after uttering the above and charged with a
bogus sedition charge. While in quote, Kah had the courage to stand by his
words. 

It can be understood that Kah is among the many frustrated
with the political hypocrisy in the Gambia, where anything and everything is
attributed to Jammeh. Kah’s comments helps to show what is in the minds of many
Gambians, most of whom are unable to openly speak. It also demystifies a man (Jammeh)
who thinks he is as powerful a destructive lightning bolt. 

Folks –join me thereby to crown Mass Kah as the Gambian Man
of the Year 2013. 

Person of the Year: Mass Kah

Occupation: Works with Foroyaa

Mass’ Quote: “Why not paste the photo of His Excellency the
president on the Sky?” (The Point Newspaper, November 28th 2013).
