Re – Fundamental Beliefs of the Ahmadiyyah; A Rejoinder to the Rebuttal of the Qadiani
Recently I wrote an article about the fundamental beliefs of the Ahmaddiyyah/Qadianiyyah which was meted with a swift rebuttal.

Re: TRC In The Gambia – A Dissenting View
By Kemo Kinteh As rightly outlined in this piece, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) cannot be the substitute for conventional justice for atrocities committed by the former president and heads of state apparatus. We know who they are; they do not represent any ethnic, religious or racial group. Hence […]
TRC: Who’s Reconciling With Who?
Foday Samateh has once again penned a brilliant article. He hit the nail on the head when he implied that very few people were responsible for human rights violations in Yahya Jammeh’s Gambia. The vast majority of security forces were not directly involved in the tortures or killings, so the […]
