The Chronicles of Bai Peul

THE GRADUATION

“Perplexed, bewildered even embarrassed, many of the guests decide to leave before any more damaged is done in their presence. The following morning when news of this meltdown reached the entire community, many realized that what has happened is no graduation ceremony but rather the coronation of a fool, a nincompoop who is about to unleashed his double degrees wisdom to an unsuspecting community that has nothing but love for him. Many lamented how they once hope his education, and training would mold him into a better soul”

Former jailed drug convict Ndeneh Faal has regained his freedom after spending seven years behind bars for drug trafficking. Mr. Faal who was released recently has reunited with his family. He was convicted alongside with the popular Kombo North MP Musa Suso by magistrate Ota of the Bundung Magistrate court. One of their co accused persons Victoria Goddard was lured by the state to enter a plea bargaining deal, which led to her subsequent acquittal by the court.

Ndeneh Faal who used to reside in Washington DC, also spent some years in Germany and in the UK. Sources say Faal is now a reformist. His seven year jailing has remarkably changed his life. He prayed daily and often reads the Koran. Mr. Faal was never caught with the cannabis, which landed him in jail. The drugs were found in the possession of Musa Suso and Victoria Goddard. His lawyers made numerous efforts to contest Faal’s imprisonment without success. Lawyer Antouman Gaye and Tambadou represented him in Lower and upper courts.

Basiru A. O. Njie-The First Deputy Governor of Central Bank is a Devil in the Jungle.

As we promised, no stone would be left unturned in the overall administration of Central Bank of the Gambia. So it would be prudent on all the Senior Management of the Bank to guide their actions as we would expose all their deeds one by one without fear or favor. This article is in relation to the First Deputy Governor Basiru A. O. Njie. This man is another square peg in a round hole. He is a real coward who fears to make even the simplest decision a clerk can take. This is because he always fears the repercussion of his decisions tomorrow. 

Yahya Jammeh calls April 10th victims opposition elements and enemies of his government-Final confession strikes!

Once again history has urged Yahya Jammeh the Gambia’s ordained killer to confess yet another crime against humanity. He finally confesses as the one who killed demonstrating Gambian students on April 10th 2000. You see there is what we call guilty conscience! This is what has naturally compelled  Yahya to  implicate himself  by slipping, while warning students, teachers, parents and then "mocking" people he calls enemies of the state! We will sandwich Yahya’s infantile tirades within this article only to allow sound minds see how this enemy of decent folks is finally implicating himself. When Lawyer Ousman Sillah was shot Yahya came out in the open saying this: "If my state guards were the ones who shot Sillah they would not miss” That is on record. It means his state guards kill Gambians he perceives as threats to his political survival. Even whereas those "threats" are within the confines of a democratic contest!  Nothing more nothing less. All lawyer Sillah did was nothing more than defending a person Yahya wanted jailed for economic crimes. If Yahya was not masquerading anything why attempt the life of a lawyer who was defending a person him wanted to send to jail? After Baba Jobe's case there were so many cases but no lawyer was shot at. Why? Here is why. Yahya felt uncomfortable as a bandit because he knew lawyer Sillah was seasoned enough to dig more and know more about his deals with Baba as the trial was heating up. He did not eliminate lawyer Sillah to stop him from winning,he eliminated him to stop him from knowing more from a source that was so close to him. Today Yahya would kill any lawyer who attempts defending Baba Jobe again because there are more tangible reasons for him to conceal more as Charles Taylor is in the Hague. Yahya's daily observer was insulting the French judges because of that!
