I am just wondering the where abouts of Ndure Cham and thopse that were reported to have escaped in what they said was a car crash. I see no substance in this story folks, i guess as detainees they must have been handcuffed and those security personells around them must have been fully armed, isn`t it? So how comes all escaped? If these are not killed, where must they be? Please if anyone has info regarding this could you share it with us?

There is roumors in town that Foday Barry was arrested because he informed Daba Marena's wife that he is dead. The woman is now said to be mourning. Foday Barry was just re-employed as head of NIA at the time of his arrest. |

For heaven sake why cant dead bodies be handed over to families for decent burials? Such behaviours are "un-gambian" and boundless cruelties. Can Yaya Jammeh's regime loose power and stay in town? I have my tantalizing doubts about it. Dead bodies in mass and secret graves are always discoverd and exhumed sooner or later. |

There is speculation about crocs feeding at some Zoo close to Kanilai. If true, then forensics may find crushed human bones or DNA at the bottom of the pond if they are lucky. yeh,rah |

SubhanaLah. Crocs feeding!! Chei Gambia, I hope these story lines are not true. Few days a go it was a recap of the November 11th alleged coup attempt and its ramifications, and now news of crocs feeding.
jammeh if these stories are your actual deeds, then you must start fearing your own end in our hands. There is no way we will let these issue uninvestigated and dealt with accordingly after you have been chained up.
You have created to much sorrow within families and that you own grieve will surely follow. I hope you continually suffer nightmares until the day when we will bring you before the courts. |

Rah, please dont make me laugh when I should cry. Crocs feeding!!! But on the other hand, it's not unprecedented in African politics. Was it Idi Amin that fed his crocs with his opponents? But as u squarely put it, Rah, forensic science will uncover such a cover-up.
I wonder if the military training scheme has a part that hardens the emotions of soldiers. There are some brutalities in African politics that can only be attributed to soldiers turned presidents. |

Bamba I dont think military training did hardened the emotions of yaya. george Washington was a soldier and he presided over one of the largest denocracies in the world. It has a lot to do with personal ego, education and maturity.
That is why we need to raise the criteria for president so that no rag tag Gambian suddenly finds him self within the corridors of power to the detriment of all of us. The age i believe should be raised to 50 years, must be able to sustain a realationship, educated to atleast a Diploma level and have served in civilian capacity for atleast 5 years for those from the uniformed services who want to seek the office of President.
It should also be outlawed for any one in the highest office of the Land to be married to a non Gambian. The spouse must become a naturalised citizen of the gambia. |

Kondorong, I agree in toto with all your conditions. Imagine late Samuel Doe of Liberia, overnight he rose from a broke soldier to own a presidential jet plane, presidential mansions, and total access to the coffers of his country's economy. No-one rises to such a pinnacle overnight, it's not normal. Hence the paranoia that usually follow such abnormal overnight transformations. |

Condorong, I think prior to setting criteria for president, we must first of all find ways of making sure that coups are no more possible in Africa then move to the next step of criteria setting for presidential candidates.
Otherwise another yaya will always emerge, change the constitution and then turn into a military civilian president just like junkung did. |

Kondorong, I withdraw my nominaton in favour of Halifa, am positive he's giong to rule on constitutional basis. We have the right candidates but a bulk of politically un-schooled electorates. |

You are right Bamba.
Taalibeh what should we do to avoid coups in the first place? |

sorry HE Kondorong, whats with the wife, i think that would be illegal, is this a glimpse of what your administration is going to be like.
marriage is personal and even the constitution doesnt have a right to tell us who we can marry??? |

I never said wife but spouse because i believe women can be equally competent if not better at leading us. |

your're right i didnt read it properly, but either way it would be going too far. the law applies to everyone equally, gambian or not. both a foreigner and a gambian who commit a crime ought to get equally treatment i guess. |
