How dare Yaya, in the midst of the suffering of Gambians, spend our money to satisfy his lunacy? This is an opportunity for the minority in the Assembly to do a fact finding and call a press release to inform Gambians about the criminal behavior of Yaya in acquiring this aircraft. The Republic of China should be served notice that their days of Gambian support are numbered for their dollar diplomacy they have with Yaya, not Gambia, but Yaya. This is no gift folks and we should stop calling it a gift. The media is also sleeping at the switch on this one, by not probing into this scam. NADD should tackle this issue and let Gambians know that at the time of their lowest point, Yaya is still spendthrift at their expense and they can change that by booting him out. Meanwhile, Gambians live in abject poverty; under total darkness; no health care; poor education system; failed as a nation; massive unemployment and underemployment; disillusionment of the youth; neglect of retirees; and marginalization and demoralization of the farming community, among numerous other failures and hardship brought about by Yaya and a criminal disorganization called the APRC machinery. How many lives could the price of that aircraft have changed for the better, yet the Dix of Kanilai saw it fit to satisfy his ego. What happened to Millennium Airlines? That was your money too folks. Anything that Yaya spends that is not from his meager salary is yours Gambians, even if it is a bribe from The ROC, Ghadafi, or fellow criminals around the globe. You have the power to strip him of all this and stop the abuse.
