The
silent majority of Gambians over the past 22years owe it to themselves &
future generations to find the courage to WATCH, LISTEN, and LEARN from the
TRRC.DO NOT TURN AWAY YOUR GAZE OR YOUR EARS AGAIN LIKE YOU DID FOR 22 YEARS.
Most
importantly, DON’T JUST SENSATIONALIZE the TRRC, LEARN FROM IT. If “NEVER
AGAIN” is to be a reality, we must find the courage to take in these horrendous
images and accept that they were happening at the same time that we were
dancing at our parties, focused on our businesses, going about our daily lives,
etc. WHAT WE MUST ASK OURSELVES IS, WHAT ARE WE EACH PERSONALLY GOING TO DO
DIFFERENTLY?
When
the TRRC reaches the era of the infamous Killer “JUNGLERS,” people will finally
realize why we risked life and limb for almost 2 decades trying to get Jammeh
out. We were getting details of such brutality constantly. And as Human beings
of conscience, we could not close our eyes, ears, mouths, and not act; despite
being constantly discouraged by people around us to stay away and join the
silent majority- who felt they were wisely keeping themselves and their families’
safe and growing their careers and businesses.
