IF The Gambia fails like she likely would thanks to our continued bigotry, divisiveness and unending cynicism, I wouldn't blame the leader, I would blame the creators of his leadership, and that's none other than us "The People" in the statement of the meaning of the word "democracy." Blame it on wedges disguised as change makers and activists, but in fact slacktivists.

Blame it on self-appointed senior-deputy-chief-acting-principal-government-bashing New-Gambia-building strong-institutions-creating stuck-ups and academic supremacist with the following as their de facto terms of reference:

1. Be all over social media throwing seemingly well-reasoned but actually fallacious arguements to shrug off the good that others see. 2.
