"This is the type of moral corruption that never ceases to amaze me in
Gambians. You can be the worse lying, scheming and what not character, but
as
far as you are economical with your adjectives, you are an OK guy. One is
caught
in a dilemma between whether to laugh or cry."

Kabir, most of the time I feel like crying with the nauseating character
that we adorned.  Among some Gambians, you cannot even call a liar just
that, without them invoking on the scriptures.  Yet, the same Quran they
love to recite, talks at length about liars.  That is what I call selective
emphasis.  Yes, after Lang stole millions, what do you see him do?  Worse
still, you see hypocrites galore join him, because the miserly behavior in
them is triggered, why?  They think Lang must have stashed a little
something on the side that they can mooch on when Lang regains his sanity.

In this day and age when Gambians are being murdered by Yaya and his thugs,
you have foxes out here worried to death about a Gambian that never done
them, their relatives, or community any harm.  Why would any Gambian with a
sound mind and body even loose sleep on Joe, when the blood of Gambians are
shed by a butcher?  Why?  One must be insane with a malady to lapse that
low.

After Conteh et al lied in front of all of us, this same freak turn the
tables around to tell us how folks in Faraba Banta praise him for his
respectful nature.  Now, what does that have to do with the price of tea in
China?  Zip!  For him to come to us after that big white lie, only to pat
himself on the back about how a phantom he created in his mind drooled on
his respectful self, really gives us an insight of how this fellow thinks.
Yet, with all that, you will see Gambians around him of like character.

This my friend, is the reason why Yaya can line up those religious leaders,
cursed them out and threatened others, dip into his "Alarubeh" outfit and
"Dankaal" them with a little something and all stretch their hands to
commence the "Al Faatia" (spelling may be off) for Allah to bless him with
more so, he can in return give them more the next time around.  In politics,
that is called the patron-client relationship.  To those of us that know
better, they are actually siding with him to further fleece the nation so
they can get their cut - trinkets, even if it is a cup of rice, yes, that
little.  That completes the fraud triangle per the ACFE - Need,
Rationalization, and Opportunity.  What our "elders" and "religious leaders"
do is to help Yaya rationalize his fleecing the nation, all wrapped in a
religious shroud and hypocrisy.  The participants in this act know exactly
what they are doing, just like Conteh and kin know the fraud they represent.

After Yaya, NADD and future governments have a long clean up to do for the
cancer that afflicts us has roots anchored deep within us.  I am hopeful
though, that the principled men and women that compose NADD will turn Gambia
around the corner, even with this dead weight.

Chi Jaama
