I hear many people talking on TV, radio, and Facebook about Gambian politics. Most just attack others without saying how they would fix problems. They call names, spread dirt, and throw insults instead of sharing better plans. This behavior hurts our democracy and wastes chances for peace and fair talk. Our country faces many big challenges that need help from everyone.
Some people only say, "Vote Barrow out," without any reason. Others wrongly compare us to Senegal, where PASTEF won recent elections. A few even want street protests to "free" the country. But free from what, exactly? Most Gambians know we have a peaceful president who deeply believes in democracy, not some hated tyrant who must go at any cost.
Anyone thinking we can...
