THE POINT NEWSPAPER MISSES THE POINT!!!!

“ The internet is a way for…the struggle in our country, and the many other countries where there are a lot of human rights abuses to be brought into the open.” Janai Robert Orina

The Point Newspaper has once again manifested its poor journalistic standards, by woefully failing to address the key issues raised in our recent editorials about Pap Saine’s gross journalistic misconduct. Instead of engaging us into intellectual debate, the paper’s disgraced and shameless co proprietor Pap Saine resorted to personal attacks, which would not help to save his already battered credibility.

THREE GAMBIAN PEACEKEEPERS REPORTED KILLED IN SUDAN!

Three Gambian peacekeepers were reported dead in Sudan, the Freedom Newspaper has learnt. Among the deaths, were said to be members of The Gambia Police Force. One of them was identified as Mustapha Jallow. Below is the letter we received from a source.

HI Pa,

I though this would be a news worth issue to investigate and possibly roll-out.

I have received a sad news of the death of three Gambian Police/Security officers in Sudan. At this stage I cannot confirm the sad news from any other source, I also don't know the circumstances surrounding the dead of those three officers, but I do know one of them is cousin of mine called Mustapha Jallow from Nuimi he once serve as police officer at Amdalaye police post.

You have the full moral and spiritual support of the silent majority of Gambians both at home and abroad.

Sierra Leone had more intellectuals than Gambia back in the nineties, yet still they paid the full price of excessive failure of leadership. I personally cannot see the miracle equation that saves us doom and gloom.

PANORAMA with 'Bulfaaleh' Salif Sadio Casamance rebel leader travels with President Jammeh to Guinea Bissau

PANORAMA with 'Bulfaaleh' Salif Sadio Casamance rebel leader travels with President Jammeh to Guinea Bissau-Just in from State house sources!
Salif Sadio traveled with President Jammeh during his last visit to Guinea Bissau-Didn't President Veira know so?
Let me start with this assertive declaration today. President Jammeh has to understand that I 'Bulfaaleh' never cook stories against him or his regime. All I write is the truth,the whole and nothing but the truth. Today once again I will give The Gambian president information that will make him realize how deep these secrets I receive are. Before traveling to Guinea Bissau with Salif Sadio President Jammeh had him lodged in Kanilai for months. Currently Sadio is lodged at a two storey building opposite the Presidential palace in Kanilai. This is the place where the late Major Musa Jammeh of the state guard used to reside before he died some months back in a mysterious way. President Jammeh during his trip to Guinea Bissau decided to travel there with Salif Sadio.

Banjul International airport's computerized visa system-Djibrill Diabate first worm from the CAN!

By Hammadi Maasinah

Once a teacher taught me these words of wisdom:"One's honour lies on keeping promises and promising what one can deliver or do at all cost" Certainly promises are bonds based on honour. Here we come back to start opening the whole can of worms about the so-called experts who went to Banjul saying they can help install a system for our immigration and other affiliate security wings, likewise departments of state and institutions deemed fit to be "milked" by a high powered delegation of scammers.

Minister Fatim Badjie Under Whose Services???

When President Jammeh privatized GAMTEL last year, there was mixed reaction across the country. The coming of Spectrum Group, marks the end of GAMTEL. The company is today on its dead ebb. The company is not only faced by financial crisis, but low staff morale. All serious technocrats are gone. GAMTEL is today in the hands of novice and the corrupt.

JAMMEH DECLARES WAR AGAINST THE ARMY!!!

…Jammeh was born outside wedlock!!!

Gambia’s President Yahya Jammeh is showing seeds of discord among The Gambian military. His recent remarks against the senior men and women of our armed forces is not only irresponsible, but malicious so to speak. Jammeh is creating a situation of mistrust between senior army officers and junior soldiers. “" If you want to be respected, you should show it in your persona. You cannot force junior officers to respect you whilst you don't respect yourself," said Jammeh.Jammeh should not encourage junior soldiers of The Gambia armed Forces to disrespect their seniors. We need discipline in our army. Without discipline, there is bound to be insecurity and lawlessness in this country.

Sudden changes at the NIA-computerized visa system at Banjul airport-service chiefs insulted by Yahya Jammeh!

By Hammadi Maasinah

During the past days freedomwnewspaper has been extremely proactive as usual. The most recent stories include the piece that was sent herein warning the NIA in relation to the Amadou Samba-Dia Halake. Likewise I have started the sudden shock thus peeling the layers which serve as "insolators" for the incumbent regime. 24 hours after that we have seen a swift change at the level of the NIA. Who says Yahya Jammeh is not feeling the heat?
