Be as Strict as Possible – Yahya Jammeh advises Sierra Leone’s President Koroma
The Gambia: “You can’t work and expect to deliver and develop if you give your ears to dogs barking. These were the exact words of President Yahya Jammeh of the ‘almighty’ Leader and President of The Gambia, Sheikh Professor Alhaji Dr. Yahya Jammeh (in photo), during the presentation of credentials of Sierra Leone’s High Commissioner to The Gambia, H.E. Mohamed Kemoh Fadika at State House in Banjul.
Referring to President Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma as a ‘brother’, President Yahya Jammeh, who is widely referred to in The Gambia and even beyond as: ‘PAPA DON’T TAKE NO MESS’ asked of High Commissioner Fadika to pass on as advice to President Koroma. “Be focus and a leader of strict principles, leaning on no one but on Allah’s wisdom and direction. Be as strict as possible. Every member of your government must be your friend but again be strict and let them clearly know what you stand for”
He further advised that President Koroma should have no barrier between himself and his people, as they should know that he is a leader with principles, know his intention and clearly what he stood for.
According to President Jammeh, “the worst mistake any leader would make is to put a barrier between himself and his people”. He advised that the voices of the people, especially the ordinary ones, must be heard and kept closer to his (Ernest’s) ears, as it is good to know what the people feel about you.
With regards African mineral resources that he said the WEST wants, he advised that President Koroma should constantly be reviewing mining licenses in the interest and terms and conditions of the country.
On the issue of children, President Jammeh said President Koroma should encourage and have love for children, describing them as ‘Angels that are pure in heart’. ‘”A leader’s popularity can be tested with the love children have for him,” he said.
President Jammeh further cautioned President Koroma against depending solely on what his Ministers and top Executives tell him but rather for him to go and find out for himself. “Meeting the people across the country is your best bet, Mr. President” he advised.
Commenting on relationship with the WEST, President Jammeh maintained that he fears no one but Allah and that he believes that the WEST don’t want Africa to develop, therefore he said “they set us on fire and exploit the situation. Before it was political colonialism but now its economic colonialism,” President Jammeh observed.
According to the Gambian leader, “Africa is backward because we are always following to the WEST but thanks to Allah, we have the mineral resources and raw materials. Only if we can determine our own terms and conditions and process our raw materials, we as Africans will grow”
“Let us be realistic, how can you advance or be in front of the one you are following?” he asked. He therefore called on Africans to stop following but lead.
The Gambia supremo disclosed that he believes in Pan- Africanism, therefore he maintained ‘Africans must first dignify themselves, be independent and work together”.
According to President Jammeh, KOLA NUT is the only commodity that the WEST is not interested in in Africa. “Thanks to Allah, The Gambia is gradually developing and we will work closely and concretely with genuine African countries,” he noted.
Specifically mentioning the British, President Yahya Jammeh said they came and stayed in The Gambia without a visa for 400 years, during which period, they only built one hospital and one high school. “So you see it would take them, 800 years to build two hospitals and two high schools” he pointed out.
The Gambian President noted that “a black man today has to go through hell before he/she can secure a Shengeh visa. “But they the WEST finds it easy to come to Africa and expected to be accorded protocol”. He called on African Leaders to “wake up from their slumber.”
Giving a taste of what he referred to as the WEST perception of African Leaders, President Jammeh recalled that on assuming power they labeled his government of not being able to pay salaries but that he surprised them, by in fact increasing salaries. He said they were dumb founded, and asked where he got the money from. “Allah is my WORLD BANK,” I replied them.
The still young man (PAPA DON’T TAKE NO MESS) has ruled The Gambia for 17 interrupted years. He is now mostly seen dressed in immaculate white gown/attire and carrying the Quran at hand and holding on to a staff and praying beads.
“Every day I pray to Allah to help me, to never fail my people, lest my enemies become happy,” he concluded.
