Jabou,

If politics was a work of art fiction and you choose the allusion of
Saturn devouring its own children to dramatize the current political
phenomena in the Gambia then I might probably give you some kudos for
your imagination.  However, Jabou, political reality is no fiction but
have meaning depending on how you want to interpret the facts. Your
speculations that the 'charading" and "scape-goating" is calculated to
save Jammeh's skin is an overstretch.  In the long run the truth shall
prevail when all the dust settles down.  You can doubt anything about a
human being but his/her instinct for self-preservation and survival.  If
Jammeh is building a facade it shall inevitably crumble with him.  The
best we all can do is to encourage him to do the right thing:  enforce
the rule of law, accountability, probity and hope for the ultimate
justice to all including Koro Ceesay.  Politics is a game of strategy
not passionate impulse.

Regards,

Ebou
