Fatim Badjie,Yama Ngett,Dembo Badjie,Yama Ndure:Our home work on Jammeh's SOSs.
By Bubu Hamma.
Like we promised,Fatim's case was a closed file unless if she and her supporters "stir" anything. We knew a bait like this was going to catch some, knowing how some Gambians can be. This thread of "my family should not be touched" is what has been helping Yahya Jammeh stay in power for the past 3 years(when his real mental illness started dripping in public). The same defense being displayed in favour of Fatim has been paraded in favour of many others in the past when they were appointed. At the end the same cross pollination of "jargons" and paraphrases have been used. Words like "slander" and so on. It is not Bubu's duty to defend the editorial,however,it is Bubu's duty to step in and clear what was meant by Fatim being spotted on MY SPACE. Infact Fatim was also on FACE BOOK! Her records are there to speak for themselves. When anyone says she had nothing bad in there makes me wonder why jump to that defensive post? Who said she had bad records or shady things in MY SPACE? Who said she does not also have "negative" things that can destabilise her if or when paraded online? Fatim can take the challenge,ask us to go ahead and then see if she will not be surprised. My stand in this is not to slander,Infact I know Fatim's family members so much so that I would at least respect Dembo and Mam Yama Ngett. Otherwise if Fatim's friends choose to parade such useless pride online we will teach them good lessons as well. Is she better than Sidi Sanneh? Wasn't he attacked when he took Jammeh's job? He was not attacked by me Bubu. Is she better than Amadou Scatterel Janneh? Wasn't he attacked when he took Jammeh's job? Is she better than her predecessor Neneh? Was she not smeared and attacked? This what we call POLITICS! Anyone in it has to be ready to swim with shirks and dirt! No sweet words here. As soon as she took the we highlighted her name for investigations within 72 hours we got what we wanted on her. Her own relatives spoke to us during these investigations. Will she accuse them for slander as well? For the information of the supporters,as soon as Fatim's case on MY SPACE was mentioned our source in New York went on line only to realise that attempts were made to delete some contents. Bubu cannot ascertain if Fatim is Yahya Jammeh's girl friend,however,Bubu's assertions that Fatim is indeed a MY SPACE worm has been confirmed. That helps something on this new thread of uncovering Yahya's plated part where he tries to use "gullible" family units only to help entrench his disastrous regime in power.
Now for that writer who attempted to catapault our criticism as Hillary tactics, be informed we care less about what tactics Hillary uses. You may know her tactics much more than we do because you rushed to them so easily. Here is one thing to chew upon.
Was it Hillary who instigated Pastor Wright to send his slurs on the air? Was it Hillary who instigated the pastor who called Obama's mother names yesterday on the FOX NEWS Hannity and Colmes program? I would advise this writer(who did not even use a pen name) to revisit the campaign history in the USA and come back here. The other issue I have with this writer is where he or she is asking us to give Fatima time? We cannot deny or give her time. Ask Yahya to do that not us.
I want to inform everyone here that some of those who write on this medium aren't "employees" like Fatim and Nancy Njie. These are professionals who receive far more pay than Fatim and Nancy. We care less about a wall street banker where Dow Jones is marching nearby. Making references of family members in wall street and/or other departments cum institutions can as well be used as bait to catch Yahya not me Bubu. Do you know what I do? Do you know if Fatim and her brother may need my services along the way? I can bet if you had known what I do,you would not mention a world street banker near me only to send "coated bluff" Gambians have to do away with this "my side-my family" thingy if we really want to propser.
Now as promised to Fatim,we told her or her loved ones not to start attacking because if we release what we know about Fatim she would be really shocked. You know what? We are not after Fatim,we are after exposing a regime that has caused stagnation in The Gambia.
There are decoys,facts,figures and strategies to apply here. That is why we did a good research on Fatim. Believe me we have not released all we gathered "negative" on the lady because for me Bubu what matters is the substance. I know Fatim more than you the writer.
Her father is Dembo Badjie a former friend of former Ambassador Njugo Bah.
He mother's name(saved out of respect),the latter was married and remarried to Dembo. This marriage was initiated by a lady called Yama Ngett in the Niumis. Fatim has a cousin/sister(in context) called Yama Ndure. Fatim's mother used to work in New York before then later on opened a boutique in The Gambia where she was selling mainly US products like clothing. You see writer I care less about slander my point was to show the state where mistakes took place to the detriment of our national interest. Talking BIG has always been the art in Banjul these days. It does not surprise me to hear the Oprah Windfrey story be exposed in your piece. Yes this is why I asked the NIA if they did their homework on Fatim? They always such stories then think they have picked goal. Apart from riches what can Oprah show us when it comes to public interest. Larry King earns more $7M Usd a year. Did you know that? Do we hear Bill Gates in all this noise? Couldn't he? What school did Bill attend to discover his art? He was at his garage! So you know what references aren't always the best. Innovate do not imitate!
You know writer I can write books and books on Yahya Jammeh. This Yahya is the one Fatim has joined,this very Yahya is the one Fatim will leave in a very disgraceful way. If you want we can bet laptops in the open. If she stays there,leaves gracefully I owe you a latest brand new laptop. Pa Nderry Mbai can coordinate that and keep it for you. Likewise when Fatim's day strikes I would expect a laptop from you. I know what I am talking about writer. Now that you have asked us to give Fatim time,please be ready to coop and stay mute. I do not want to destablise the lady because I swear if you spark these reactions beyond any reasnable standing then we will defend the integrity of our sources without any sign if resignation.
