The Reason Behind the Shameless Killings and Brutal Torture of GAMBIANS-Commentary Friday, August 18, 2006 (348 reads)
The Reason Behind the Shameless Killings and Brutal Torture of GAMBIANS By Baati Jollof How are the mighty fallen? Hello
Gambians, Countrymen and Countrywomen. During the past few days there
have been great revelations about issues that had been clouded in
mystery for some time now. In my youth days in the late 1960s at Saint Augustines
High School we were taught by those humble priests the real virtues of
life irrespective of religion. As a Muslim student I enjoy studying
Bible Knowledge. Am sure some of you reading my contributions on this forum, will say that this old man like making reference to Saint Augustines
and the good old days. But I must confess to you that these were the
days when every GAMBIAN was his brothers keeper, most especially for
those of us who live in Banjul and the greater Saint Marys Division at that time.

Freedom Newspaper Mail Bag:What our readers say today!!! Friday, August 18, 2006 (235 reads)
By Alhagie Camara, USA
Dear editor,
Please allow me space in
this popular and well read online newspaper to react to the fabulous
and misdirected commentary made by Pa Saikou kujabi recently in this
very newspaper.
Pa Saikou is indeed
disappointing and outrageous to hear comments of this nature from a man
of your calibre. i think you fooling your own self since no single
Gambian pro or anti Halifa Sallah will agree what you about this man
of character, intergrity and dignity.
Perhaps
you did not know Mr Sallah if you does which i believe you did not
then i believe you are abusing your ultimate right in making a fair
and objective comment in this very forum. There is no iota of sense or
truth as far as i'm concern and many hundred of thousand Gambian home
and abroad to agree what you said about this man.

NADD: PROACTIVE PRAGMATIC FOREIGN POLICY Friday, August 18, 2006 (192 reads)
NADD: PROACTIVE PRAGMATIC FOREIGN POLICY
By Foday Samateh
For those still holding out in denial, I wish to inform you in open
confidentiality that Yayha Jammeh and Lawyer Darboe have long since
known beyond all doubts that there is no comparison between NADD and
both APRC and UDP in any area of governance. More so, in the pivotal
foreign policy. Twelve years as a first-class frequent flyer around the world, Yayha
Jammeh’s foreign policy (if it can be called one) has gone in as many
directions as his countless flights. The only difference is, while his
pilots have always successfully landed the planes at their intended
destinations; his one-man foreign policy team is forever lost
dillydallying in the middle of nowhere.

Fajara Barracks Diary: How fugitive Major Kalipha Bajinka was assigned to kill Hamat Bah? Thursday, August 17, 2006 (929 reads)
Fajara Barracks Diary: How fugitive Major Kalipha Bajinka was assigned to kill Hamat Bah?
State House army
officer reveals how Bajinka and some state guards burn the Independent
Newspaper-Jammeh's negative reactions to fail operations and a lot
more......
President Yahya Jammeh once invited Major Kalipha Banjinka at his
Kanilai retreat to execute certain missions for him. One, was the burning down of the Independent Newspaper and the killing
of certain political leaders in the country. Fugitive Bajinka at the
time was the head of the notorious and brutal state guards. Bajinka was
more keen at burning the Independent Newspaper at the time. A state
House army officer alleged that Bajinka gave orders to the state
guards to "kill and burn the properties of the Independent printing
press beyond recognition." The officer said the soldiers who took part
on the operation were nearly put on firing squad, as the operation was
described as a failure by Bajinka and Jammeh. That a state guard
soldier who sustained burns left his short gun pistol at the scene of
the crime. The said pistol was later in the hands of the police. Both
Jammeh and Bajinka wanted the local security guard on duty dead and
all properties raised to the ground. While the operation was on,
Bajinka was at a near by street coordinating the fire bomb of the
Independent.

death.

Editorial: Wednesday, August 16, 2006 (591 reads)
Jammeh should give up his plans to kill Ousainou Darboe The police threatening to shoot and kill opposition supporters is a bad sign for a country going to the polls in September
The time has come for Gambians to unite to chase monster Jammeh from the Presidency.
EDITORIAL
The Presidential flag bearer of the NRP/UDP party Ousainou Darboe has been tested again by Jammeh's thugs ahead of the elections. The recent fracas between trigger happy APRC thugs and his party militants in the Niaminas is a dangerous signals for our country ailing national security. The APRC is no doubt posed to incite violence ahead of the polls. This nonesense and cowardice act must stop if they want to realize their much anticipated elections free of violence. This regime survived on terror and oppression. Since Ousainou Darboe is committed to salvaging our country from decadence and despotism, he should be bold enough to resist these harassment spearheaded by the Ruling APRC. Darboe should bear in mind that Jammeh will exploit all kinds of intimidation to silence him and his party. As rightly stated by Lamin Waa Juwara freedom is not a gift, but a God given right. This coming elections are crucial to our country's future and Mr.Darboe should be ready to say enough is enough on Jammeh's politics of terror. African local politics is costly and those vying for the Presidency should not be chicken hearted at all. They should be prepared to go to jail, to be killed in the name of toppling a despot through democratic means. Anything short of this, they will be counted as fake politicians who are out to legitimize a totalitarian government.

NADD: The Party for Institutional Reform-Opinion Wednesday, August 16, 2006 (308 reads)
By Foday Samateh
NADD: The Party for Institutional Reform
The jury is in. The verdict is reached. The judgment is passed. And I
have the utmost pleasure to announce that NADD is the only political
party with the caliber and timber required to deliver what The Gambia
needs: a comprehensive package of institutional reform. The somber eyes of sincerity are cast across the present state of the
nation and the heart of patriot weeps in immense grief over the
blanketing gloom. Twelve years at the helm, Yahya Jammeh and his
visionless junta have succeeded in proving their honest critics right
that they are the wrong crowd at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Their report card on democratic rule of law shows that their
performance is below zero, ability nil, and overall conduct
heart-wrenching. They do everything to the contrary of the proper way.
They abuse human rights, mutilate and violate their own constitution,
instill fear deep into the people, rejoice in their arrogance, and
absorb every institution protected by law to be independent into the
power-grabbing presidency reminiscent of a colonial government.

Exposing Jammehs Fraud What Needs to Be Done (II) Wednesday, August 16, 2006 (318 reads)
Please sare the following with your readership. See attached document.
Thanks:
-Abdoulie Jallow (BambaLaye)
Exposing Jammehs Fraud What Needs to Be Done (II)
Intimidation, Manipulation and Misuse of State Resources
There is abundance of proof Jammeh has jumped on every opportunity to skew
the electoral competition to his advantage through crude and sometimes
illegal methods. He has not hesitated to use his toadies and thugs to
obstruct the opposition and its supporters. He took every opportunity to
coerce, frighten and pressure ordinary citizens into believing he is the
best thing since Kanilai.

Suwokuta with Eddy Kabayfu- Omar Fye, Tijan Ceesay to host $20,000 picnic party for the APRC in DC on August 25TH Wednesday, August 16, 2006 (611 reads)
Suwokuta with Eddy Kabayfu- Omar Fye, Tijan Ceesay to host $20,000 picnic party for the APRC in DC on August 25TH
Their lies on OJ'S planned defection to the APRC exposed!!!
Sports
Minister Omar Fye is here to party. Is Gorgi Fye serious for real?
What Fye and the APRC intends to achieve by wasting $20,000 in a beach
party? We learned about a $20,000 dollar picnic party to be hosted in
a week or so in the Marry Land by him, Tijan Massaneh Ceesay together
with a handful of APRC supporters in the DC Metropolitan area. Hummm.
The party is scheduled on August 25TH. They said such a party was
triggered by two key reasons. One, the successful hosting of the AU
Summit and what they called "Jammeh's inevitable landslide victory come
September 22ND. Are they also celebrating the recent hacking of the
Freedom Newspaper? It is gathered that APRC supporters in various
states were billed to attend the said party. Omar Fye and Tijan Masaneh
Ceesay are currently busy making phone calls everywhere informing
people to attend. That they want to impress President Jammeh and his
cronies that the APRC is popular in North America. The APRC is facing
its final dead as Gambians abroad cannot like such a murderous party.
