WARNING TO THE NIA OFFICERS
We learn to be educated because education is maturity. By being matured, you learn and understand the world around you and learn to adapt to it or change things that you want to or you can.
On 1 December 2016, Gambians spoken loud and clear and the international community has heard their voices that they don’t want Yahya Jammeh and his oppressive regime of which you are part of. They want changes and they got what they wanted. Nothing is going to change that no matter what.
Jammeh’s term expires on 18 January 2017 and on the 19th January , a new sheriff by the name Adama Barrow will be in town. And business won’t be as usual just to put you on notice.
Gambians are watching you and putting you on records. You will be held accountable for your actions, mark my words, there will be no place for you to hide and no immunity for your lack of maturity. You need to understand the political reality of our Gambia and that is people voted Jammeh out because they are sick and tired of being killed, tortured, harassed, maimed,abused and being subjected to undignified treatments by your agency. People voted for freedom and justice and rule of law and respect for the citizen . People voted for unity and real peace.
It is indeed a misnomer to call yourselves National Intelligent Agency( NIA) but rather you must be called National Disgrace Agency( NDA). There is nothing intelligent about you when you cannot understand the very core values of our society. You harassed citizens, tortured them, killed them , and subjected them to all kinds of fear all in the name of national security. That is wrong , unacceptable and contrary to the values of intelligent people. You are compromising your future and the future of your families for a man whose days are numbered. You need to come to term with the new reality of The Gambia.
Yahya Jammeh will be gone in few weeks time. Why do you continue to harass, intimidate and detain citizens for exercising their rights to free speech? How is that an intelligence work for your agency to harass and intimidate your fellow citizens? Why don’t you understand that Yahya Jammeh is done. He cannot do anything to you or for you. You should refuse any order he gives you to carry out against our people. Whatever illegal orders you carried out, be rest assured that you will be held accountable for it. It is your family that will end up being innocent bystanders. In such case, no one is to be blamed or be held responsible but you for your immaturity. Your family should never forgive you for not listening to voices of reasoning.
This is your biggest opportunity to amend the wrongs and redeem yourselves. This is the time to show some maturity and take charge of your lives and don’t let a lunatic use you. He is history. He is nothing, valueless and it is just a matter of time when he will be captured or be sent to his UPR ( Underground Permanent residence). You don’t want to join him in either places unless you are idiots or immature. He cannot harm you anymore than you allow him to.
Stop your illegal surveillance of citizens. Stop arresting and detaining them and stop the torture cycle. Come aboard and join the Peace train. There is enough room for you all. I hope you will listen to me and stop all the evil things you are doing on behalf of an arrogant, evil egomaniac, ruthless, brutal , selfish psychotic tyrant Yahya Jammeh.
May Allah give you the moral courage and wisdom to do the right thing especially when it is that easy and straight forward . Out going President Yaya Jammeh is done and will eventually write his own destiny of either going in peace or disgraced by many tyrants before him. You want to join him, follow his order. Gambia is bigger than Jammeh, 22yrs of brutality and fear is enough, do the right thing for your children and the future for the greater and “common good”.

My message was interrupted……to continue……..that cruelty and repression were the daily diet of Gambians. I am so happy that the old regime has started to be broken up and that the NIA will be destroyed and become merely a bad dream. I send all Gambians love and hope for a happy and prosperous life under a democratic governance. Remember always that ultimately power rests with the people, as has now been made dramatically clear to you.
