- Oh I get It! If you disagree with the President's policies, then you are not a Gambian!! Mr President, I think you are the most wonderful man in Gambia and your respectfulness to your people (Gambia's greatest asset) is easy to see - even to a blind man. Now when can I pick up my citizenship?

- Pap Saine is a bonafide Gambian citizen unlike Yaya Jammeh and his gang of thugs. All of them came from across the boarder, thanks to the great relationship we have with Senegal that Jammeh wants to jeopardize. Ansu Koroma is right, Pap Saine is more gambian than Asombi and Jemus.

- At least we know Pap Saine is Gambian. Can we say the same of Yahya Jammeh with equal confidence? I doubt it.
