PRESS RELEASE
Call to join the Never Again! Movement, NAM
We announce the launching of a mass movement which is asking Gambians to stand up and make sure there will “Never Again!” be a leader like Yahya Jammeh in this country!
NAM will be a people’s movement whose participants will be vigilant to prevent the emergence of another Gambian leader like Yahya Jammeh in this country!
Yahya Jammeh’s misrule in The Gambia, the way he abused office; abused power is being documented and will continue to be documented – and the findings of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission will unearth the crimes his governments for all to see.
We hereby call on all to support this initiative, whose sole purpose is to work to uphold and defend the sovereignty of the people of The Gambia, as required by the Constitution.
Chapter 1 section 2 of the Constitution states: “The Sovereignty of The Gambia resides in the people of The Gambia from whom all organs of government derive their authority and in whose name and for whose welfare and prosperity the powers of government are to be exercised in accordance with this Constitution.”
Chapter 2 section 6 (Defence of the Constitution) sub section 2 states: “All citizens of The Gambia have the right and the duty at all times to defend this Constitution…”
For practical reasons and to facilitate the activities of the movement, I shall serve as Coordinator of NAM. There will be coordinators or focal points in other parts of the world, as Gambians in the Diaspora have an important part to play in the activities of this movement.
Participation is open to all Gambians in the country and Gambians residing outside The Gambia; participation is open to non-Gambians in the country and all citizens of the world who want to see that Genuine Democracy prevails everywhere and at all times.
All are invited to participate in sharing and exchange information, ideas and knowledge through the internet and other media of mass communication, including the news media, to promote the sovereignty of the people of The Gambia and elsewhere.
