What Must We Expect More? Must we pay now to save later?


It is easier asking than providing accurate answers but better asking than keeping silent.
A struggle that does not include Utopia is not worth a try, for it leads to a country where humanity declines and hope fades. And when human hopes are lower, tyranny trumps unceasingly and cultivate evil. Thus, success it the realisation of Utopias. I am not a lazy utopian and I am a Gambian like you.
In this nearly incomprehensible political atmosphere of The Gambia, many things are only pictorial, farfetched and not illustrative of the reality. One thing real, however, is that of a political power that citizenry seem not to embrace. It is a study of a complex political structure where layers are non-linear and average politically interested masses find difficult to cope with. Politics cannot be static but must be evolving according to the dictates of the political majority with the concerns of the disagreeing minority at the centre. It involves assuring freedom of all kinds in a measured way while putting into consideration the concerns of those most disadvantaged and underprivileged. Democracy cannot be opinionated and no government should pretend to define what democracy for its people is.
Nailing the matter right on the head, the freedom of a people to manifest must not be conditional and should be safe guarded at all cost even in the worst interest of the government. No presiding authority should assume absolute political obedience. This is part of the democratisation process The Gambia must acknowledged. Protest even a violent kind is an important wake-up call that all democracies tolerate. And protest is a political bargaining. All citizens have the right to say no and that must be tolerated and cultivated for the progress of any political system. Humanity is an infinite complex structure and this is why we champion this structure with guaranteeing fundamental human rights to each and every citizen bearing a human head. Every Gambian should assume their irrefutable human and constitutional rights to the best of the abilities breaking all obstacles. This is not an anarchist model but a constitutional and duty to humanity that we must not fail to serve.
The simple mathematics goes like this: give me your sword and worship me vice versa. The last sword of Gambians is their human rights that democratically are conveyed through fragile voices that usually go unheard. However, better to speak unheard and wounded physical than die psychologically in silent. If the truth should be the driving force of democracy, why should we not uproot the evil. The most dispiriting political effort is trying to hide your true grievances. I have never been politically satisfied and I do not foresee it. I will not campaign for it either. It is a continuous utopia for the brave ones. However, the hunts of the political regime in The Gambia( from the past to the present) is an individual failure and a as result, a collective 21st century slavery. We all are responsible for this calamity and must make sure it is handle not to hunt the future generations.
Our political failure to grapple with developing issues including uprising from the oppositions, will never help and even the political sycophants will suffer the brunt very soon. But our national interest spearheads everything and this is primarily why no government should be an obstacle to negotiation. A government should be welcoming to all watchdogs most importantly its opposition. When a Gambian identified himself apolitical, that is the lowest level of his ignorance and nonchalance towards national interest and his own liberation and the liberation of others. This syndrome of being indifferent to what happens around you is what many Gambians including my bald head suffer from. And now the brunt is more than what we can be contended with!
Dynamics of Gambians in all sizes and shapes is very fragile but helpful for any tyrannical regime. When it takes a president while stretching his corrupt evil hands to shoot and shut a public, that tells all how bounty of blessings a masses we are. From the previous to the present regime, the opinion of the less privileged and the most disadvantaged majority has never being a priority and this transcendental nonsense reproduce itself almost unstoppably.             
Haply, it is time we assume our human rights that thousand others have sacrificed their golden lives for. Putting genuine pressures on any government will always lead to the realisation of our utopias of emancipation. Gambians most begin to think selfless and serve a national give-and-take duty in building a better atmosphere for the generations yet unborn. This go farer than taking to the street, probably it begins there however. Nonetheless, challenging any political disruption, includes better analysis of the realities and of course not by an apolitical individual. Let it be clear from the start that being apolitical means being disinterested in national development. Anyone who falls into this category does cease to conform into the present model of political emancipation that The Gambia cries for. For those who fit this trend in democratising The Gambia by putting the national cake first, must you not compromise anything evil for the betterment of our political growth. Politics is about dealing with present realities but also by building mechanisms to face future political trends and troubles. We must not embrace freedom cheaply!!!
Face the crisis, pay the costs and bore the consequences. Nothing less. If our leaders failed to act, then they are culpable!!!
