NIGERIA

Calls for third presidential term increase pressure on news media

Reacting to a heavy-handed secret police raid on a TV station on 14 May, Reporters Without Borders today urged the Nigerian authorities to show more restraint towards the press and said it feared there could be more attacks on journalists critical of a proposed constitutional amendment to allow President Olusegun Obasanjo to run for a third term.

Jammeh will soon go!!!

Following the opposition Kombo East by election defeat Kukoi Samba Sanyang, the mastermind of the 1981, abortive coup called for inter party dialogue in a bid to rescue “sinking Gambia” from Jammeh’s repressive and totalitarian rule. Kukoi who emailed the Freedom Newspaper from an undisclosed location called on opposition parties and freedom fighters to put all hands on deck to rescue The Gambia come what may. "I strongly believe that instead of competing against each other, sabotage and wishful thinking Gambian freedom fighters must increasingly try to learn from each other, by using the vehicle of inter-political dialogue to explore the belief systems of other fellow Gambia politicians.Beyond the excitement of discovering common ground with people of radically different political backgrounds and histories, inter-political dialogue will also bring about “mutual transformations” as we all will deepen and reform our own political practice."said Kukoi in a letter sent to the Freedom Newspaper. Below is the unedited letter of Mr. Sanyang. Please read on....

Never open your doors to defeatism!

Factors causing the shocking outcome!

Those of us on the ground know what caused the shocking outcome. There is no cause for alarm neither should the opposition reduce its zeal. No one should open his or her doors to defeatism. This is not wishful thinking from us here it is reality. We will be addressing every factor in the most appropriate way.

Yahya Jammeh Instituionalised Corruption and Incompetence

Yahya Jammeh Instituionalised Corruption and Incompetence

                           By: Baati Jollof

" I have enough wealth to take care of not only me, but even my great grand children". These were Yahya Jammeh's very own words some few years ago, during an interview on GRTS (the television). It is really amazing to hear these words from Yahya Jammeh, when we are very much aware that Jammeh had not inherited any wealth; prior to 1994, Jammeh has no saving account in any bank in the Gambia, talkless of a foreign account; it is on record that Lt. Yahya Jammeh took an overdraft from the continent bank in June 1994. How then did Jammeh made his "wealth"?

AMNESTY INT. NEW YORK TAKES ISSUE WITH JAMMEH!!!
Monday, May 15, 2006 (431 reads)


Representative Gary Ackerman

218-14 Northern Blvd.
Bayside, NY 11361

Dear Sir:

We are members of an Amnesty International Group living in New York City. We recently heard from a citizen of The Gambia, the small West African nation, at an event we held in honor of Freedom of the Press Day. His name is Alagi Yorro Jallow, and he is the Managing editor of the newspaper, The Independent. He told us a harrowing story of harassment, that he and his colleagues have endured at the hands of the current regime.

Gambians not reay for change yet-Opposition leaders failed the electorates again!!!
Sunday, May 14, 2006 (660 reads)


It is now clear that The Gambian voters are not ready for change of political leadership. The Kombo East by election defeat is a clear indication that our people are still lacking behind when it comes to political change. Our disintegrated opposition are partly responsible for the current predicament Gambians are exposed to today. Under the current political atmosphere the opposition cannot win incumbent President Jammeh and his failed APRC.

Editorial:Lessons From Pirang-Editor Mathew Jallow closely examines the oppositon defeat!!!
Sunday, May 14, 2006 (593 reads)


      EDITORIAL

Around the world, Gambians of every political stripe are taking note of the turn of events in the just concluded Kombo East by-elections. Following the narrow loss by the opposition, emotions are running high, and ranging from utter dismay to sheer disbelief. Until yesterday, all indications were that a win by the opposition UDP/NRP candidate, Momodou Lamin Darboe, was a foregone conclusion. Tonight, many of us will go to bed to spend a sleepless night asking ourselves the hard questions; what went wrong, and how could this happen? Evidently, there is no one simple answer to a complex problem, but even as many different variables have come into play here, there are two over-riding issues that seem to influence the outcome of the elections.

Jammeh's atrocious human rights record alone is sufficient grounds to vote him out of office in a bleep.

Freedom Newspaper Mail Bag:Reader Alhagie Bah's views on today's by elections!!!
Sunday, May 14, 2006 (469 reads)


                    By:Alhagie Bah

Dear Editor,

The opposition's defeat in this by-election is noting to wonder about. The opposition parties are responsible for engineering their own downfall through the NADD vs. UDP/NRP greedy factions. DIVIDED oppositions are "good news" for current governments as they safely capitalise on the "divide and rule" system. I do not see the opposition taking over from Jammeh come October 2006 as the oppositions have made "false starts!" I am sorry but I still believe Jammeh can only LEAVE State House via another MILITARY COUP or through a "natural" death like ABACHA and EYADEMA, King Hassan of Morocco or Mobutu of ex-Zaire.

BREAKING NEWS:APRC'S JUNG CONTEH WINS KOMBO EAST BY ELECTIONS-THE OPPOSITION SHOCKED!!!

NADD FAILED GAMBIANS-SHAME ON OUR

SO CALLED POLITICAL LEADERS!!!

Information just came in that the APRC candidate Jung Conteh won Sunday’s National Assembly Elections. Conteh defeated the UDP candidate by 300 votes. The UDP did performed well by capturing almost all the polling stations, but failed to make it at Farabantang and Pirang. These two wards commands a lot of voters. The APRC are meanwhile jubilating their victory.

PANORAMA with 'Bulfaaleh'-Gamworks,cumulative spending quoted in dollars
Sunday, May 14, 2006 (626 reads)


Why President Jammeh,Kaba Bajo,Isatou Njie Saidy,Sheikh Tijan Hydara and Yankuba Touray are reacting to what the freedomnewspaper reports?

There is no doubt in every Gambians mind that the government of the day is so pissed off with what papers like Pa Nderry's are writing on their performance. A reliable sources revealed that the government through the NIA is so worried about these negative reports. This source told me to watch out for President Jammeh's reaction on the story we wrote about GAMWORKS. This source was absolutely right. The daily observer has carried the reaction from President Jammeh.
