In bringing Jammeh to justice, two nations are critical that the Gambia government must engage. Ghana had over 40 of its citizens unlawfully killed by Jammeh. The US also had two of its citizens killed by Jammeh. I remember an editors’ meeting with a former US Ambassador to The Gambia who asked “where are my Americans?”, talking about the two missing Americans. He talked about how America would go to any length to punish anybody who harmed American citizens. The Gambia government can approach the US government for help by presenting the TRRC evidence of the beheading of the two Americans. Some US congress leaders will gladly take up the matter. And with the success in the international cases of Michael Sang Correa and Ousman Sonko, we will solve the Jammeh problem once and for all.

Can the UDP do the job this time around?

Jammeh’s supporters who have gone wild over the man’s planned return to the country may as well go ahead and calm down.

President Adama Barrow has dared the former president to honor his threat of returning to the country, in a rare reaction to the twisted former dictator’s performances.

“The airport is always open to travel. If Jammeh was serious about coming back, he would have done so when his mother died. Jammeh will not rule this country again,” President Barrow said.

Analyst says Talib Bensouda is the wrong man for The Gambia.

Muhammed Lamin Dibba said: “Talib Ahmed Bensouda is not the type of leader The Gambia needs. From his leadership record at KMC as Mayor and at the UDP as National Organizing Secretary, it is evident that he has deviated from the expected standards.

“From allowing incompetent and unqualified individuals to be appointed to positions they do not deserve, to betraying his own words and causing division within the very party that nurtured and molded him, his actions speak for themselves.

“He has also tolerated corruption in broad daylight, particularly among his own contemporaries.
For example, enabling some of them to inflate prices of commodities in exchange for kickbacks for their personal gain.

“Finally, I strongly believe he is too hasty and will do anything to gain and retain power. I do not trust him, and I will not vote for him. Yallah Terreh!!”

Talib Bensouda’s camp and returns to UDP.

“One told me, ‘you are always welcome to visit me at my office when we win’. What an insult! A kid that even my younger brother is older?,” SM raged.

The DS carries Gambia’s flag to the UN.

At the United Nations in New York, I spoke at a high-level panel of respectable leaders on ‘The Role of Male Champions in Parliament in Advancing the Rights of Women and Girls’.

At the outset, I told the leaders that when men use their voices and positions of authority to defend women and girls, societies move faster towards justice. I also however told them that when men choose silence in the face of discrimination or harmful practices, that silence becomes complicity.

Women and girls should not have to beg for their rights. Their dignity is inherent. Our role, as male parliamentarians, is to ensure that dignity is recognised, respected, and protected.

Commenter Abubacar Darbo has lashed out at foolish citizens who are claiming Talib Bensouda couldn’t secure UDP flagbearer job because he is not 100% Mandinka.

He said: “It always baffles me how some Gambians cannot deal with the Real ISSUES on matters without being sentimental , ANGRY and disrespectful (insults) to whoever they seem to disagree with.

“It is blasphemous and emotional bias to accuse the UDP of TRIBALISM or Ethnic sectionalism on the matter of Mayor Talib Ahmed Bensouda. Talib successfully rose through ranks to mayorship against Mandinka contestants in the primaries(selection) he was supported and voted for not because of his personality but PARTY. No one was accused of any sort And should Talib lose that selection what would be the accusation? In fact who is more Mandinka than Talib or is today Talib is not Mandingo?

“Who are the very people supporting or behind him? Is not the same Mandinkas you are accused of being tribal? The majority of Talib supporters are Mandinkas and this Includes my own Father (a number one fan) so it's hypocritical to suggest and level Talib's current issues to Ethnic reasons. Politics is a choice and one has the right to force anyone to do ...'

“What is more foolish than a Mandinka man who supports Talib calling another person Tribalist for not supporting Talib. That's what I called EMOTIONAL IGNORANCE.”
