Gambia's Presidential AffairsMinister Warns Public Servants Leaking Information Saying "Access To Information Should Now Be Need To Know Basis."
"Access to official information should be need to know basis," a rather desperate SG and Presidential Affairs Minister Momodou Sabally warns civil servants and members of the security forces during a GRTS appearance last night. Sabally also talks about what he calls some "dishonest and unpatriotic" workers leaking information to foreign media houses hostile to the regime. He warns that such folks, who are in the business of leaking "sensitive state information" should be aware of the implications of their actions. He said anyone caught leaking info to the enemy would live to regret it.
Sabally's statement, followed a publication made by the Freedom Newspaper that Yahya Jammeh has privatized Gambia's passport office by awarding a Lebanese company to be in charge of the nation's passport office (Citizenship). Muhammed Bazzi and his son were said to be overseeing the new passport production contract. Bazzi is a close associate of dictator Jammeh. He frequents the State House to meet with Jammeh.
By all indications, Yahya Jammeh has been hard hit by the amount of "sensitive information" coming from Banjul. Jammeh and his SG are on an information "containment program"---not knowing that under the era of digital world; information monopoly is a thing of the past. No one has monopoly of information nowadays. The advent of the Internet has rendered dictators like Jammeh impotent.
If the regime is transparent and democratic, why are they resorting to " need to know basis" in a supposed work environment, in which every worker reserves the right to know what goes around his, or her respective Ministry? Oh I forgot... This is a dictatorship.
Jallow Kanilai wants to keep our people in perpetual darkness so that each time that he steals from the Treasury Department our people wouldn't know about it. He also wants to be able to arrest, abduct, kidnap, torture and kill our people without the world knowing about it.
That's why it's crucially imperative for people back home especially those working in the government to intensify efforts in supplying information to the Freedom Newspaper and other online journals. Credible information is the biggest threat to any dictatorship. We are glad that Jammeh is having sleepless nights--thanks to Freedom's exposure of his corrupt practices and crimes against humanity. Information is power. Boy Sabally good luck on your "information containment program." You might one day want the Freedom Newspaper to expose your story to the world, when the Kanilai villain parts company with you. That day is fast approaching.
