HABIBOU BARRY SLAMS GOVT PRIVILEGES, POLITICAL FAILURES AND CALLS FOR RETURN TO COALITION 2016

By Habibou Barry

It’s a shame seeing the children of voters seeking donations for overseas treatment when government officials and their immediate families are flown out for treatment with taxpayers’ money, as though they are simply enjoying privileges attached to their positions.

It’s a disgrace because if those privileges were not attached to those positions, they would definitely equip the hospitals so that everyone could receive standard treatment without having to consider overseas treatment.

The government is dishing out land as if they were the ones placing the pegs when God was creating the world. A nation of serious people, with a leader who stands by his people, would create multiple affordable housing units for rent across the country rather than gifting land to a few individuals who are mostly among the highest earners in the country.

With affordable housing, a 30-year-old man wouldn’t be in boyfriend-girlfriend business, but he could marry multiple wives because he could house them easily without pressure.

They are busy buying cars when their major roads are filled with potholes, wasting fuel by dishing out fuel coupons while those who are earning crumbs as salaries are struggling to pay fares.

They turn politics into lying and are still trying to justify their lies by blaming former presidents. Those struggling daily will fight for them even though they made 90 promises, fulfilled none, and are still renewing their promises to secure votes.

We don’t lack leaders in the country, but people are busy looking for the wrong people and trying to make them leaders.

When Jawara failed the country, we still had monkos trying to use his name in the political arena, while the candidate for whom they are using Jawara as a campaign tool failed woefully as a mayor.

Adama Barrow made it clear that he doesn’t know but is ready to learn, whilst the position is not a place for learning but a place for execution.

The UDP has already shown that they are only capable of dividing the nation, as the party itself is dividing into subgroups. If they lead the country, that is exactly what is going to happen.

When they chose to stand in the way after the 2016 victory, let them know that the 6 has appeared again. In this 2026, you will see the results in 2027, as the obstacle they created is the light they are looking for now.

Coalition 2016 is still valid and on the table.
