O.J Security Threat To The Nation
- Yankuba Touray

Yankuba Touray, the Tourism and Culture secretary has viewed that the
opposition, of late, are becoming a security threat to the nation going by
their utterances and the way they spread lies around town. SOS Touray was
speaking at a rally organised by the women wing of the APRC over the weekend
at Kombo, Wellingara. He also stated that the democracy of the ruling party
was to bring about development to the nation by building schools, heath
centres, skill training centres and to increase agriculture for the farmers
to benefits from their products, he said since they took over in 1994 a
Commission of Inquiry was set and that nobody was killed and in other
countries instead of that a military tribunal will be set and anybody found
guilty of committing a crime must be killed.

According to Touray the opposition are now accusing President Jammeh of
doing this and that at Kaninlai when ex-president Jawara has done nothing at
his home town Barajally but when he Yankuba has money he will construct his
home town Nawl rather than in Europe. However he also stated that if OJ was
going to contest an election and he when taken to Court and questioned about
all the bad mal-practice he has done to the nation the talk in town will be
plenty and now he is threatening to bring back President Jawara by force
which means a big threat to the security of the nation. SOS Touray who was
applauded by his supporters finally alleged that OJ is a security threat to
the nation and should be careful of what he is saying because they are
security minded.

He also predicted that OJ was planning something for the nation and if not
the oppositions want to do something for him and should therefore mind his
words because he is an elderly person, he warned. 'If there is any problem
in the country he can't escape it and he must be questioned abut it which he
should understand, and if anything happened at his side he will be
arrested," he said. Other speakers at the rally included Aja Junko Sowe,
Jaye Jobe, Alhagie Yerro Sanyang and Aja Binta Kanyi and it was attended by
many APRC supporters
