JUNG KONTEH IS NOT FIT FOR ANY POSITION
Words of Lamin R. Darboe UDP Candidate for the Kombo East bye-Election
By Lamin Fatty
According to the UDP candidate for the forth-coming bye-election in the Kombo East constituency, Nfansu Jung Konteh is not fit for any position in Kombo East. Mr. Darboe made these remarks at a recent UDP meeting held at Bonto and Kafuta on Monday, 8th May, 2006, in preparation for the bye-election. He said that any position that one can hold through election excludes Jung Konteh. According to him, Jung is not fit stating that since everybody knows who Nfansu Jung Konteh is, people should not elect him. He branded Jung as some body who does not have sympathy for his people and therefore cannot preside over their affairs. According Lamin Darboe this has been manifested at a time when their Alkalo died and within three days, Jung replaced someone to the position of the Alkalo, who gave him a bull, when he was Chief; that before the seven days charity he Jung, announced the replacement of their Alkalo, whom the people did not like. He finally told the electorates to vote for him because he is the only candidate that can solve their problems. Hamat Bah for his part told the gathering that anybody in the Kombo East District, who does not want to be disappointed, must vote for Lamin Darboe. He stated that Lamin Darboe is the only right candidate, since he is hardworking and has respect for the elders. He assured the people of Kafuta that when they elect Lamin R. Darboe in office, UDP coalition will work with him very closely in bringing development in Kombo East. He said politics of empty promises are over because everybody is conscious of what is going on. But reminds them not to under estimate this bye-elections. Ousainou Darboe for his part told the electorates at Kafuta that Lamin Darboe is a young man who can do any service at any time. He said Lamin Darboe has a good character because he has never been linked to any criminal case; that therefore he is the right candidate to be voted in office. But according the UDP Presidential candidate, somebody who has his case files at the Police Stations and court houses, should not even come before them, demanding their votes because he is not capable. He said politics should be based on truth and nothing else.
“NO ROOM FOR THE OPPOSITION IN KOMBO EAST”
Says Nyimasata Sanneh Bojang
By Fabakary B. Ceesay
Addressing Party Supporters at Omorto village in the Kombo East constituency. Honourable Nyimasata Sanneh Bojang said that sine the beginning of politics in the country, the Kombo East electorates have never voted for the opposition, even though there are moderate numbers of opposition members in the constituency. She said that she had actively participated in the Kombo East Constituency politics during the former regime with Lamin Kitty Jabang, who was the then member for Parliament for the said constituency. Honorable Sanneh Bojang cast her mind back to the former regime’s opposition as more genuine than the present oppositions, but said that they were also only interested in making Sheriff Dibba a President. She said that the present opposition is not only interested in leadership but also selfishness. She called on Darboe, Sidia Jatta, Halifa, Hamat Bah and Waa Juwara not to compare themselves to President Jammeh, because they do not have any leadership qualities. Nyimasata and Majanko told the electorate that they are not voting for Jung Conteh but for President Jammeh. They said that this by-election will determine their success in the coming October pools. Speaking earlier, a party stalwart, Ebrima Jassey, warned the villagers not to welcome the opposition in Omorto village anymore. He said that, when NADD came to Omorto, Sidia Jatta told him to join with them, hence he was a PPP supporter and that PPP is now NADD. “I told him in front of my wives that I will never support the opposition, not today and not tomorrow,” he said. Mr. Jassey accused the UDP/NRP of political hypocrisy by trying to mix up the Chief and the APRC candidate. He lamented that UDP/NRP are fabricating and scandalizing false stores that if Jung Conteh wins, he will sack the Chief, as he and the Chief are enemies.
Meanwhile, the APRC campaign entourage for the Kombo East by-election has accused the teachers for involving themselves in politics and siding with the opposition. The alledged involvement of teachers for sympathizing with the opposition was mentioned by the Narang Ward councilor, Ebrima Kujabi, at a political rally at Omorto village, in Kombo East. Councillor Kujabi narrated that, teachers told students to steal their parents’ voter’s cards if they are supporting the APRC. He said that teachers are siding with the opposition because there is an opposition candidate who is a teacher. Councillor Kujabi said that a student was caught stealing his parents’ voter’s card, and later confessed that, he was advised by his teacher to do so. A nominated Member of Parliament, Majanko Samusa, threatened the teachers that they will be taken to an unknown location if caught doing politics. Samusa challenged the teachers who want to be politicians to resign and join politics before poisoning the minds of their students instead of teaching them what they are supposed to learn. “If anybody is not afraid of President Jammeh, the NIA will soon lay their hands on you; then nobody will tell you to respect Jammeh,” he said. He told parents to advise their children to report any teacher who is asking them to steal their parents’ voter’s cards.
NADD HOLD MEETINGS IN KOMBO EAST
By Sarjo Camara Singhateh
The National Alliances for Democracy and Development (NADD) on Tuesday 2nd May 2006 held a meeting in Mandina-ba, Kombo East.
Speaking at the meeting, Mr. Suwaibou Touray of the NADD party urged the electorate to vote for Mr. Momodou Lamin Touray, the candidate for NADD in the by-election scheduled for 14th April.
He pointed out that the only way to do away with the extreme poverty in the country is to dislodge the APRC party from office.
He informed the people about the importance of a National Assembly representative especially if the person is conscious or aware of the realities of the nation. He said that the APRC government has taken loans within a short period of 12 years amounting to 19 billion dalasis.
He said the APRC government found only three billion dalasis as external loan for the country in 1994. He said what should be collected from taxpayers this year alone amounts to three billion and eight hundred million dalasis or three thousand eight hundred million dalasis.
This money, he said, is what should be utilized to develop the country for just this year.
Mr. Touray also spoke about the role of the Area Council and stated that the tax money that is annually collected by the Area Council is more than one hundred million dalasis. He explained that this should have been utilised to build nursery schools for Mandinaba and other communities, build some roads, build small clinics along other but as he said no one can tell him a single project, no matter how small it is, which is carried out by the Brikama Area Council in any of the villages that we have gone to in Kombo East.
He quoted Yankuba Touray as saying that the government cannot buy farmer’s groundnut but Suwaibou said the government has bought Mariatou Beach Hotel for D45 million and took money to refurbish the same hotel now called Ocean Bay for over three hundred million dalais. Mr. Touray then asked how long would it take Ocean Bay Hotel to make profit to recover the three hundred and forty-five million dalasis?
He also asked why the Government cannot take those money to buy all the groundnuts, sell it, make profit quickly, return the money to state coffers and use the profit to build roads, health centres and other social amenities without having to take more loans. He said this is why there is too much suffering in the country.
He called on the people to be careful as to who they elect as their representative. He advised the people to elect someone who is honest, sincere, trustworthy and prudent; not some one who is greedy and selfish.
In another development, the NADD held another meeting at Tungina where the candidate Mr. Momodou Lamin Touray spoke about his role as a National Assembly Member if elected.
Mr. Touray told the crowd that he hopes the people of Tungina will vote for him. He promised to work hard in the interest of the people of Kombo East, if elected.
Mr. Touray said as a politician who is backed by intellectuals with wide experience, he is sure to represent his people efficiently.
