Is there a political party in the Gambia the dessiminates information into native languages better than Mr Sallah's party? You would be surprised how a 99 years old can enjoy listening to reggae. What would you know about strategy anyway? Keep comparing apple to oranges.quote:

So for many illiterate or semi-literate Gambians (majority of the electorates as at now) seeing is beleiving. Until he understands that then its better he moves to USA or more advance democratic countries. The Gambians are seeing Jammeh's roads, hospitals, schools etc and Halifa's talk are just like playing reggae to a 99yr old woman in Gunjur. Sallah, changes will come but there are ways to acheiving those changes not only talk. We need to be realistic of the situation on the ground and understand that approaching an illiterate (including semi-literate) and literate electorates are different. Until Gambia have over 75% literacy rate there is no room for Sallah to succed politiclly in The Gambia.

| Good job Kobo, i hope this transcription might help the discernment of the braindead while we await the official version of the UDP and other parties. Don't be surprised that you might need a translation to native Gambian languages too. Some people simply need a refund for a wasted life time of education. |

“…HOWEVER WOULD ENDEAVOUR TO CAPTURE & TRANSLATE STATEMENTS FROM THE AUDIO FOR US TO FOCUS ON IT AND THE ISSUES…”
Thanks, Kobo
That’s a good idea to keep the discussion on focus, if not, we´re stocked in this getting-nowhere-wordings… Secondly, the Diaspora, interestingly is a mirror in which main land Gambia sees herself. So it is our responsibility to have meaningful discussions and genuine critique.
Remember: is, “Halifa Sallah on GRTS International”

What kind of “intellectual capacity” is needed to grasp Mr. Sallah´s message?

Anyting short is mediocrity and only id*ots celebrate mediocrity. Therefore i'd suggest you enhance your intellectual capacity for better discernment...

The ability to intelligently capture substance, essence and value from a statemnent. That kind of intellectual capacity. Myopic reasoning is for imbeciles. Unfortunately some people live and die as retards.

Shaka, You see the more I learned the more I understood how little I know. And believe me I have learned to understand my limitations. I know for sure that as far as I am concerned there will always be room for improvement. Now how about you who, I assume, know everything? You don't need enhancing your own intellectual capacity do you? Or is it just TALK???
You're making me laugh!
And hey, regarding how leaders should be answering questions, there isn't just one leadership model ( I am sure you know that too???). This is why I dared to label Mr Sallah's interview as extremely boring. No hard feelings, just an observation... Criticisms are not necessarily only negative, they can be healthy too.
And I will never let myself get dragged into UDP this NADD that or PDOIS everything! My real target remains the dictator, Jammeh, even when I criticize Sallah. It seems like some of you eat sleep and drink a certain ideology. I should be able to criticize Mr Sallah, a public figure who I don't always agree with, without you having to measure my "intellectual capacity" even when you don't know **** about me! How DISRESPECTFUL!!

I do not need to know jerk about you to comment on your oponion on this Bantaba. I DO NOT know everything but i certainly can glean substance and value from simple statements. To say the interview is boring is to say that it is devoid of substance and value to the national debate. That is when i begin to think that you need your head examining. The national debate begins with a talk and will continue with more talks. If you hate talking that much i'd suggest hot wax to the ears. That might just yield you salvation from future talks. Regarding models of leadership, you are spot on there. They certainly come in varieties. That is why some people model themselves on Hitler, Jammeh, Amin etc. A good leader however, is a good leader. Clarity, precision, consistency and coherence of word backed by facts, figures and substance are all characteristic traits shared by all good leaders. By the way, exactly what ideology do some of us eat, drink and sleep on? quote:

| And what exactly is the best for the Gambia Janko? If you can figure that out you might just stop wishing for Mr Politician to give you freedom he does not have. Until then the journey to the mountain top is a hundred years too far. |

Kay,
Let’s get the dialogue going and not burn energy “in the valley”.
We are heading for the “mountain top”, higher heights, and would not settle for nothing less than the best for Gambia,
Janko, my intention has always been to contribute positively to the dabate with absolute objectivity and due respect to every side. However, there are people here who taken UDP's 32% votes into their head and consider it a mandate to ridicule and twist the arm of the rest of the opposition into a Darboe presidency by force.
Nyarikangbanna's open disrespect and slanderingo of Halifa has to stop. I have said that I have once voted for UDP, and Nyari may not know that I am a pure pedigree (bred) Mandingo and besides English, Mandingo is still the next often spoken language in my household. SO mandingo-phobia? ****...
Let us exercise restraint and respect one another and help the common cause. Halifa is no threat to the UDP; APRC is the common enemy. When the opposition is fighting one another, only Moe and the APRC will be laughing... |

| Wise words Kay. To some people somehow, the prophecy of Dobong must be fulfilled at all cost. If you don't work towards that agenda you are mandinka-phobic. Just watch them unmask in public. The Gambia is greater than grandad Dobong or his prophesy and Ousainou Darboe needs to get out of that fixation. |

Your evidence is essentially flawed however. In my next paper (coming soon), I will put your argument in proper perspective, and prove that your evidence and by extension your party leader did not pass the litmus test. An alleged murderer and one caught up in a security sweep is different from one fighting for freedom and principles...
Kay
Don't get over yourself. I am not here to agree with your opinion of Ousainou. We are in polar opposite camps, and hence you are more than entitle to scrible whatever you feel is your conclusion of Ousainou.
I am happy that you are producing a paper, but as usual, our focus is on more important matters than a paper from a PDOIS fan. |

I am sure the prophesy of the mad professor, aka the Gambian political problem solver fighting for Dad's wishes must come through at all cost as well.
Tell your lies to those who don't know Halifa's real motivations. Halifa's endless bit about the bush is nothing but a strategy to keep his pet child in power. This man more than anyone has done more keeping Jammeh in power than any Gambian. No wonder he is endlessly writing time wasting political materials for the dust bin. We know the pseudo APRC supporter hiding behind PDOIS. No wonder Jammeh don't feel threaten by PDOIS brigade.
"this is the problem with Gambians..." Halifa. I wonder what is his problem? His ego. |

You must be dreaming. Wait until the right moment is about. I am certain that I understands Halifa's politics better than you do.You will be lucky if you catch up with me let alone stop me.
