I am glad that sanity has finally prevailed. I would like to infinitely thank our fathers, mothers, uncles, brothers and sisters for a job well done. They said all sorts of things against you; that you are not educated; that you are “tribal” which is an insult in all forms […]

Vote Sabotage: APRC Supporter Arrested
Polls this morning open in the Gambia’s first crucial election to be conducted by the coalition government of President Adama Barrow.

Shame On You Pa Nderry Mbai!
By Yaya Dampha The Gambia’s tabloid journalism chief Pa Nderry Mbai has again gone beserk. He has done what he is at best at: insulting, provoking, fanning seeds of hatred and tribalism. The bad boy is simply rotten, and nothing can sanitise him. The problem could have been his upbringing, […]
Let’s Stay Out Of Muddy Politics
A renowned Gambian cleric thinks it’s unwise and inappropriate for any religious leader to take sides in the country’s current political brawl. “It’s wise for clerics to remain neutral when politicians are involved in a brawl,” Imam Momodou Ceesay tells Kairo News. “Politicians everywhere will engage in on and off […]

Gambia Will Be Doomed If We …
I think the allegation that the APRC loyalists are out to sabotage the new government is 100% true. We have people in the system who make it their duty to undermine the Barrow government without any reasonable justification. These government officials have their collaborators outside the system. One of […]
