SECURITY OFFICER PUTS ON APRC BADGE
By Musa Barrow



A security officer dressed in plain clothes, was sighted putting on a badge bearing the photo of the APRC leader with party name.

The said officer was among a group of security officers deployed at the IEC office on Friday 5th January 2007 to maintain order while the NADD supporters were there for the nomination of their candidate for Serrekunda Central in the forthcoming National Assembly Election.
As the security officer in question approached NADD supporters, he was told by some NADD militants that the badge he was putting on was not appropriate for the occasion. They argued that he should not have displayed that badge which they described as politically sensitive. NADD supporters further argued that what the officer did was a clear violation of the Constitution and Electoral Degree which demand impartiality.

As the exchange of words intensified between the NIA officer and some of these NADD supporters, some uniformed security officers appeared and took away the plainly dressed security officer. They also admitted that it was an error on the part of the officer for such a display and urged the NADD supporters to exercise restraint.

Come on guys. This is not the first time it happens. Public servants do the same. Did we not read here about GPTC management distributing party clothes to employees.

May be these NADD supporters are new in Gambian politics.

Although it's not a regular thing to do for such people, but then we've seen it happen during the Jawara days, so really nothing mortal here.

Peace

Unfortunately two wrongs dont make a right. Its true it happened during PPP time but thats no reason to continue under APRC. Otherwise the cycle just continues.

To develop, we must rectify the wrongs and move on. Do we expect the same under a NADD government?
