Saul,
I mean, why are you taking such a stance. Its unproductive! very backward,
and can even be considered irresponsible! for that matter.
Off course, I did read your piece, and it doesn't sound positive.
I think you need to use your mind better! No body is going to be out here to
entertain such ideas! Robinson's piece was very educative and smart. A
better Gambia, is the agenda Saul, in case you missed the point!
Do you consider the out come of such ideas as "Tribalism"? what effects do
they have? Why are you puting energy on"Tribal" diversity?
I have been reading some of your wounderful pieces, and thought you were
more smart than this. Take a little research on that word "Tribe" and see if
it even fit our society! It has more wider meanings and effects than you may
think. We shall not entertain that Saul! be careful! its realy backwarded
and unproductive.
I think, if you dont have anything to add, or argue constructively,please
give chance to others who can come up better ideas concerning the progress
and prosperity of our people. We are not out here just for a matter of
challeging others.We are here to discuss ideas.Further more I will consider
this a waste of time and energy for you, because the average Gambian is very
well aware of the effects of this so called "tribal" issue." so please "lagg
av nu"
No hard feelings brother, "tribal" issues doesn't suit us! we are one.
Yahya
