Everyone in The Gambia is crying out for “attitudinal change;” none is taking a hard look in the mirror. I will tell you what, ATEKELA! (it isn’t gonna happen), and that’s not me putting an evil tongue on, I’m just being realistic.
Attitude is
not some software that you buy off the shelf, install it inna di piple and it
ready fi use right away. Where I come from, they say it grows like Choka (pubic
hair). So, one desires it to grow it, but also groom it, same way attitude is bespoke
to fit the demands of one’s environment.
But that’s as
long as the “demands of the environment” is keeping with reason and propriety,
because today that what’s good is just what’s pleasurable, a lot is socially
acceptable that doesn’t even care about the time-tested rules of right conduct
So calling for
“attitudinal change” speaks to all of us, to become better versions of
ourselves, as it goes even for (or perhaps particularly) those of us who tend
to enjoin it on everyone else but ourselves, seemingly forgetting that a
person's first responsibility is a person’s self.
