I feel obliged to also contribute to the recent topical issue involving General Lamin Bojang and a purported leaked nude video of him.
Although, I am not a registered member of the GAP, I felt the gentle man need the solidarity of every Gambian as he battles with a serious psychological trauma.
I dare not confirm or deny the veracity of the leaked video but I am convinced that it was a setup that was calculated to bring down, soil his reputation and kick him off the Political fray as the 2021 Presidential race intensifies.
As a country and as a Republican state, we can only boast of a full-fledged democratic space in this “New Gambia”, if we encourage a health Multi Party competition and accommodate divergent views from citizens and political leaders as a whole.
The freedom of private life must be recognised and observed.
As far as I am concerned, subjective Moral actions must not be measured against a person’s ability to run the state House and deliver us from the bondage of bad governance.
General Lamin Bojang is a dignified son of the land who has an impressive track record and has consistently demonstrated high level of patriotism and love for this country.
His decades of impeccable service cannot be crushed by a sadistic act of evil doers.
Even though unfortunate situation was an opportunity for the GAP executive and members to demonstrate their love for their Presidential aspirant, it is mind boggling to note how they distance themselves from a Man who gave up all to take up an offer that he knew would be a tough job.
If there is any one to be expelled from the GAP, in the name of moral sanity, it would have started from Mr. 90 days; I mean Mr. Musa Batchilley.. He had demonstrated dishonesty and lack of morals.
The GAP has just created a GAP through their unprofessional act.
I rest my case.
Mustapha Ceesay, writing in, simply dubbed himself a concerned citizen.
