Jammeh’s time is yet to come
Tuesday, 25 January 2011 11:58
By Muhamed BanoramasFellow Gambians, a lot is going around the world including in our own homeland.
Elections are fast approaching. Our faith is in our own hand. If places like South Sudan can do it by the ballot box, we can do it too.
I must make a plea once more to my fellow citizens. Let’s not vote for the APRC. Let’s give change a chance and lay our hand on freedom after our long time struggle.
We have seen Tunisia, where the masses said enough is enough, and took to the streets to prove to Ben Ali what the people’s power really is about. National interest and freedom was the most paramount thing to the people of Tunisia. Being a fool, the president underestimated the power of the masses bring life to a standstill. Alas! He eventually ran into exile. How cowardice!
We saw how Samdam Hussein ended up in a cave; Nino Viera of Guinea Bissau, the former president of Niger, and many more.
Jammeh’s time is yet to come. I hope he has packed your stuff before it’s too late?
International
To the US Secretary of States and the Norwegian Immigration Department, I call on them to stand by what America and Norway expect from the rest of the world - human rights and respect for international treaties.
The Geneva Convention and the Universal declaration of human rights guarantee the rights of every human being. I therefore urge restraint in the handling of illegal migrants on US and Norwegian soil. Remember, there are many of us at the mercy of dictators back home, who can’t afford to take chance.
