Good Citizen warning to Gambia's
Sinking Government
By Sarjo Bayang
Fetishistic worship of stones and dead objects produced disappointing twists when president Yaya Jammeh was stripped off his magical power stick in front of big cameras at UN Heads of State special meeting in New York end of September 2013.
Protocol required that Jammeh had to surrender his power stick before mounting the stage during his famous speech where he lambasted world leaders for empowering gays, lesbians and homosexuals whom he described as biggest destroyer of mankind.
Good days are running out for all those who kept Gambia government in 20 years military rule by Yaya Jammeh. By look of what is happening under everyone's open eyes, time is showing its ugly face as the president of Gambia turns bitter day by day.
Prior to his UN address President Jammeh was held hostage by protesting Gambians who advanced further by punching to the floor in physical fight, his former Foreign Minister Momodou Tangara. It was first Momodou Sabally, Head of Public Service who doubles as Minister of Presidential Affairs (whatever that means). Sabally ran out of luck when he encountered long waiting angry mob sending strong message to Jammeh. Sabally managed to escape with bitter insults as he threatened picking up bones with some of his old friends in the other camp. For almost 3 days Jammeh never saw day as if under house arrest.
Less than a week after Jammeh returned to Gambia from that humiliating New York encounter his anger level rose to fever pitch. In retaliation Jammeh decided to terminate Gambia from membership of Commonwealth without subjecting the occasion to protocol and through the will of Gambian people.
By now everyone in Jammeh's government gets to know that the ship is sinking. According to Gambian constitution, when a sitting president behaves in ways suggesting infirmity of body or mind, that is sufficient reason for the House of Representatives to unseat him by vote of no confidence. It is not known what plans are afoot in dealing with this harsh orders by Jammeh to terminate Gambia from the Commonwealth. Signs are not good and those representatives have every obligation to save Gambia from further collapse or minimise the extent of damage from this current quagmire. Not doing anything at the right time will have its own price to pay.
