Mr  jobe,

It  goes  beyond  me  hwo  you  can  accept  the  fact  that  Yaya  or
the  APRC  is  worth  governing  the  Gambia  when  you  concede  that
they  killed  our  kids  and  went  on  to  immorally  buy  votes  just
to  stay  in  power.

Mr  Jobe,  the  issue  before  us  is  that  of  interest  versus
conscience.  Those  with  a  clear  and  honest  conscience  who  can
survive  without  this  barbaric  regime  moved  on  and  fend  for
themselves.  Those  who  have  vested  interests  in  the  spurious  APRC
projects  tend  to  stay  in  hopes  of  fulfilling  their  selfish
dreams  of  success  with  Yaya.  Mr  Jobe,  I  know  you  will  agree
with  me  that  you  can  work  else  where  besides  working  for
  the
APRC  government.  I  know  you  will  also  agree  with  me  that  the
atrocities  committed  by  this  regime  outweigh  any  so  called
developments  they  have  made  so  far.  If  this  is  the  case,  what
makes  you  think  that  they  should  rule  the  Gambia.  Don't  you
think  the  Gambia  deserves  a  better  group  of  people  to  lead  her.

In  the  face  of  evil,  it  is  no  ones  responsibility  to  speak  out
against  it.  All  right  thinking people should  condemn  evil  and  try
to  replace  it  with  good.  That  is  the  least  anyone  can  do.  You
need  not  be  a  member  of  parliament. I  reffer  you  to  Ebrima
Ceesays  accusations.  If  you  agree  to  all  that  he  said  about
Yaya  and  his  cronies,  and  still  pledge  your  support  for  this
rougue  government,  then  I  counsel  you  to  to  seek  inner  sanitaton.

Put  yourselve  in  the  shoes  of  Dumo
 Saho  or  the  parents  of  one
of  those  murdered  children.  Do  you  think  any  of  the  projects
you  tend  to  expound  here  with  binign  dogmatism  will  make  any
difference.  The  bad  outweighs  the  good  and  only  those  who
despise  evil  or  vice  can  see  that.  The  others  tend  to  throw
out  the  murders,  dishing  out  public  money  to  interest  groups,
buying  of  votes,  jailing  innocent  people  etc  on  the  back  burner.
To  those  people,  its  all  good  as  long  as  they  are  not  directly
affected.  "My  kids  were  not  killed and  I  am  not  related  to  Dumo
or  Lalo."  "heck  who  knows  if  I  continue  to  expound  APRC's
spurious  projects  with  sincere  dogmatism,  I  may  become  a
secretary  of  state"  I  hope  this  is  not  your  position.

Alagie L  Barrow
