LETTER TO NADD EXECUTIVE BY EX-FLAG BEARER, HALIFA SALLAH (Continued)


Compatriots, I dare say that if the young people of the Gambia conceive elections as a game of numbers and give their votes to the highest bidder, they are certain to mortgage their future to the vagaries of the gambling table. The pursuit of football, jerseys and dalasis staked in tournaments would dictate how votes are cast unless, our young people inculcate in their minds that the casting of a vote is the highest expression of the political will of a sovereign person, a will that should be asserted with honesty and clarity of mind by an incorruptible citizenry. Unless such political maturity is attained the future of this nation shall be immersed in doom and gloom.

Compatriots, apart from the young people, another group that is decisive in determining the outcome of elections in the constituency are the women. Their "hand to mouth" struggle for existence has compelled them to develop cooperative survival techniques which reinforce social and political obligations. The establishment of thrift savings and credit societies provide access to funds to invest in small scale enterprises. These funds are often accumulated from the daily, weekly or monthly contribution of members who receive the total sum contributed on a rotational basis. The group (compin) members tend to have influence on each other because of the culture of solidarity that emanates from rendering mutual support in financing naming, marriage and other ceremonies. Those with political interest often seek to influence the leaders of such groups so that they can exert pressure on the rest of their members to give blind support to certain political parties or political figures.
Six tendencies were evident among the women in Serrekunda Central Constituency. The first tendency was manifested by women who owned their minds and needed no one to dictate how they are to cast their votes. They do not entertain any form of intimidation or inducement. They even campaigned for me without being visible. I must say that a large portion of the votes I received came from such women who simply want effective and efficient representation. Many of them experienced shock when they heard the results. I came to identify many of them as a result of the expression of their grief after they heard the announcement. I could never have imagined that some of the characters who appeared could have been so interested in shaping the political life of the country.

Secondly, there were those women who have come to develop links with the Centre I established to serve the people, known as the People Centre at Papa Sarr Street.

The non partisan free computer training services, the education support programme to finance the fees of disadvantaged students, the revolving loan scheme financed by a deposit of more than 50% of my national assembly income into a bank to run an interest free and non profit micro finance scheme, the community support programme, the social organisations, the provision of recreational kits to children of the women, the provision of office space to the National Association of Disabled Youths and financial support to open up its bank account and meet travel cost to conduct radio programmes, the provision of a social clinic to counsel and serve as an interlocutor for the solution of labour, marital, inter generational problems, land, gratuity, rent, inheritance disputes, all combined to move many women to become politically active to safeguard the gains.

Thirdly, there were those women who had established themselves as the women leaders of the APRC who used to free themselves during National Assembly elections to vote for a person of their choice. Many of them have always been convinced that I could be an ideal representative. This time they were told that the President wanted the seat and those who break ranks would see the consequences. The weakness of many leaders of women groups is the fact that during registration, they rely on the Village heads or Alkali for attestation forms to influence many people to be registered. They keep register people whom they can control.

Since presidential elections and the national assembly elections do not take place simultaneously all the aspirants for the various seats usually exert their own influences on the various women groups. Each women group strives to have its choice selected so that they would have greater influences on the political process. This is what gives rise to boycotts by those whose choices are rejected. In this election, the impression was given that the victory of the APRC candidate will enable all groups or compin leaders to benefit. They were also made to believe that a defeat will be reprimanded. Hence in the 2007 National Assembly elections the women who are linked to the APRC camp continued to support the candidate while trying to draw the loyal group members on their side. Only the non visible members broke rank and either abstained or voted against the candidate because of dissatisfaction in the choice of candidature. One may wonder why APRC women groups would campaign for a candidate they may not want. The answer is simple. A close relative of mine who is an APRC supporter explained their state of mind in the clearest manner. She said to me "Halifa if you were president we will do things to sustain you in office than we can ever do for Jammeh." She indicated that the problem is that Jammeh is in power, that if they don't get close to the government the minority ethnic groups whom she referred to in a derogatory manner, would end up being more important than they are in their own city, that they cannot allow themselves to go through such people to get to ministers and other top government officials. It is therefore clear that some women would support any ruling party just to be closer to the decision makers. They would obey instructions just to remain in the good books even if they do not believe in what they are doing.
The fourth tendency is those women who have been politically linked to the UDP. Those linked to the UDP were simply informed that Halifa Sallah spoiled Ousainou Darboe's chance to be president, that he also must be deprived of his National Assembly seat. They claimed that Halifa Sallah has prejudices against members of the Mandinka tribal group.
The attempt to peddle these two indefensible views is what undermined the credibility of the UDP candidate in Serrekunda Central. Many of their credible supporters decided to stay away from their campaign. Some gave support to me while others who wanted me to lose supported the APRC candidate.

The fifth tendency was displayed by women who have been associated with the NCP. A number of them continued to support the UDP after the split between the leadership of the NCP and UDP. However, when they realised that the UDP would not be able to win the seat some gave me their support while others restored their traditional support for the NCP. The message from the NCP was very simple. They conveyed to their women that the party leader had sent word that all those who are interested in his welfare should vote for the APRC candidate.

Finally, the sixth tendency deals with women who still see themselves as migrants. Once they come into the country they usually have a long standing host who provide them with all the support to get residence. Since people can get voter's cards through attestations such people find it easy to get identity documents and voters cards. However, such women are always insecure. They are always under the dictates of their original host. They always stand the risk of being accused of obtaining identity cards through false pretence.

Infact, during the recent upsurge to get non Gambians to acquire what is referred to as alien identity card such people go through a lot of trauma for fear of being discovered. Voters of such a nature can never have a mind of their own. They can always be subjected to intimidation by those who helped them to get the voter's card.

I must say that one of the worst features of the past registration exercise is to allow people to get voters cards through attestation. Now that we have both the Presidential and National Assembly election behind us one service that I can perform to promote the democratic revolution in the Gambia is to add my voice in calling for electoral reform.

The Gambia government has accepted the decision of the African Commission on human and peoples rights to introduce street names and compound numbers and mention such addresses in the voters' cards of all successful applicants. For over a decade this has not been implemented. I will trace these documents and lay it before the Independent Electoral Commission for action. The reason why it is easy to escape scrutiny is to register voters without the filling of detailed application forms with security features. It is amazing that one has to fill forms to get ID card and passport but the forms that are required to be filled to get voters' cards are non existent. It is absolutely essential for us to focus on comprehensive review of the electoral system before the holding of any major elections. I am convinced that with massive voter and civic education and electoral reform a more democratic environment will be created for a freer and fairer election to take place.

Without such developments, the results of elections cannot truly reflect the undiluted choice of the people. In short, how can one explain the results of the Presidential and National Assembly elections. Let us interrogate the results of the two elections.

HELPING SALLAH IN HIS LEGACY

"Compatriots, what type of thinking is in the minds of these women? Common sense teaches us that those who plant stones cannot reap groundnuts. It is equally evident that no cashier dares to face a judge and then claim that the fraud he/she is accused of emanated from the disappearance of money from the safe because of the handiwork of a magician. Despite this elementary truth, these women believed that by their sand mounds, incantations and exposure of their buttocks they can make me to lose an election. All of us pay lip service to the notion that human beings are embodiment of dignity, worth and conscience; that democracy entails the possession of political will by each member of society which is expressed in equal measure to determine popular representation on the basis of consent. Where in lies the dignity, worth and conscience of a woman who crawls on the ground and expose her private parts with the mistaken notion that she is to influencing others to do what she wants against their will?

Our primary task, therefore, is to combat this stultifying notion that people can be made to win or lose elections through magical interventions. In the struggle against harmful traditional practices, we should add the struggle against shameful and undemocratic traditional practices. This is a fundamental task of the democratic revolution. We must ensure that people own their minds and are resolved in exercising their will without fear or favour, affection or ill will to chart their own destiny.

Suffice it to say, I must bring to your notice that I utilized all wisdom that I could command to combat this culture of mystification of the voting system." Hon. Sallah.

The above is nothing of surprise, and i fully concur to its creeping tendency.Where you've lost that seat, meant the people lost that seat, including the very women that worshipped the devil to ensure you are defeated. But their worship of the devil neither adds nor removes anything of your capability. They might have angered you seriously by their bad conduct, but do you blame a people in the period of "jahaliyya," like in ancient Mecca before the coming of Islam? This shows all the more reason why you need time off from that national assembly to engage the society, and that you are doing now.

Personally, i like that you rested now, though, hated Gambians losing your seat. I am learning and enjoying your imput in this struggle. The coordinated conspiracy to vote you out is also an evil force, that shall remain an enemy to all Gambians irrespective of their political, religious or tribal affiliation.

As it stands, you didn't let anyone down yet.

Uncle Santa;

The guy meant to humble himself. He still carries a lot of fire, but that his relinquishment of the position should be taken in good faith. He knows the online gossips and follows the online writers like the herder and his goats. Probably a woman will do well as a flag bearer, this time around. I think the guy is just doing what he promised his supporters when he lost his seat.

He is dealing with a tuft battle. It is not only ignorance that he is fighting, also hatred and sentimental linings. (By the way the opposite of ignorance doesn’t mean having paper degrees. Just the same way as awareness doesn’t interpret paper degrees.) You wonder why there can hardly be unity among Gambians, because unity is a threat to those that want to seize rights and enslave others. That’s why unions like NADD or anything to bring the people together will be trampled upon. To me, he is better being the writer of these great pieces than going back to hold the flag again. For him to give it up just like that, that will be too cheap. Though, his philosophy might be misunderstood by many, he is in no way a boastful fellow or one desperate to cling onto power.

By the way, he is in good spirit and shape, according to the latest updates. He is more worried about the Gambia and her people than himself. That spirit will not allow him to succumb to defeat. He is also making history, and what he is doing now will live after him. He is not among those individuals described by our honorable Minister Malcolm as follows:

“They put your mind right in a bag, and take it wherever they want.” Alhaji Malik Al-Shabaq.

And i say amen to your supplication. Thanks for your rejoinder.

Uncle Santa;

The Point's edition of January 31st also have something related. It helps to show the guy is strong. So truly for him, 'there is no turning back.'

There is no turning back

Wednesday 31st January 2007

Halifa Sallah is down but not out. His loss at the polls isn’t a personal disappointment for him because he has ever seen political power as an opportunity for service. It’s the Gambian people who have lost by losing a man of his integrity and forthrightness in the National Assembly. All countries, especially a country like ours, need men like Halifa Sallah who can stand up to be counted. If Halifa Sallah had been a powermaniac (please pardon this coinage), he would have gone to absurd lengths to retain the Serekunda Central Constituency. But he isn’t; on the contrary, he is a man of principles. He put his case before the people who had always stood by him, but forces both seen and unseen contrived unrelentingly to deny him the seat.

It’s great to see that Halifa isn’t bitter about his loss, even though his political detractors have been over moon. Like all great men, he’s rallied quickly and set new and worthy goals for himself and the nation. And he’s now raring to go at great guns. If we may borrow the words of the great Nelson Mandela, the struggle is Halifa’s life. That is why he concluded his thoughtful post-election statement with the moving sentence: “ There is no turning back.” For Halifa and all progressive Gambians, there should be no turning back. The struggle has only just begun. He said: “ To those who ask me to keep hope alive, I must say that only the ignorant and the opportunists can fail to realise that progress is not achieved once and for all. It goes through stages. Sometimes, two steps forward is followed by one-step backward. This should not retard progress. It should offer lessons on how to avoid retrogression.”

The struggle for change and progress is ongoing; it isn’t a one-off thing. Abe Lincoln lost at least 13 elections before he finally won the coveted post – the President of the United States of America. Halifa should see the next five years as a sort of a retreat for deep introspection about life generally and the political situation in the Gambia. We’re glad to see that he’s going to devote much of his life now to writing. He’s no doubt a wonderful; his ability to connect ideas with words is remarkable. Nicole Machiavelli failed as a politician, but he was able to draw from his political failures to produce a masterpiece The Prince, an indispensable classic on politics and political thoughts.

We wish Halifa every success in his bid to “contribute his quota to the building of knowledge-based societies on the continent”.

Guys, Halifa Sallah is a great asset to our nation. It's saying that goes like this in Nigeria "A cow doesn't know the use of its tail till it is chopped off." In similitude, Gambians won't fully know the value of this guy now. I am sure the same applies to his likes in the past.

Here is another song for the guy.

dalton ,i aggree the man is a man of the people and as always been.
politics is seen by many as game but to some it mean business and an opportunity to make change. sallah and sedia with rest of the thinkers like him will never succumb to defeat especially when it is with dirty tricks.
smart people see things before it materialise so sallah already took his posture.
let him keep the fire burning.in unity we shall win ,but in division ,the struggle will last forever.
i will not listin to music since you afore warm me.
i am sure gambians ,sensible ones for that matter know the worth of the calibas of sallah and his contemporaries. we may have difference of opinion about the man but he has sacrifice more than many.
let river gambia flow. the whirl wind shall come to our direction one day.

Surah- Ar-Rum 30-22
