(Thursday, 13th July 2017 issue)
Dear
Editor.
Over
the past month’s, the democratic Political system in the country has ever more
becomes fragmented. At the opposing end of each coin, people promulgated lots
of bickering discourse in order to nail the matter down, but all their
concerted efforts have all remains unanswered, and unresolved at the borders of
inquiry.
Most
of the major party militants, are now subscribing to the dogma of political
character assassinations for the simpler reason of appeasing their political†
interest. Much of them are politically chauvinistic hammering political
suicidal words, which are bizzare and utterly grotesque across the political
landscape in the country.
To
hark back, at the epochal presidential election 2016, most especially the wake
of the popular liberation movement; that inclusive movement, called the
‘Kalamaa revolution.’ A revolution that sought to end the unbearable climate of
fear, human right defender’s betokened to take a supplementary response for the
country’s safety and security. The online digital media has over the past years
gone spiral, on one hand, it has accelerated and shapes popular discourses.
The
Twitter periscope to YouTube channels, and Facebook medium. The dissemination
and production of news coverage’s is rapidly evolving. This begs the quest
whether professional Journalist are becoming of a less pertinent, in the eyes
of citizen Journalism.
Social
media has played an instrumental role during the wake of the Kalamaa
revolution; a hike in online discourse often preceded major events on the
ground. The politico and ideological landscape ripped through the minds of
political dissent. The devoid of new foresight to map out political strategies
were on high alert for the country’s safety.
Thus
the Kalamaa revolution has liberated people’s freedom, a cornerstone of
progress, humanitarianism and the active construction of a more caring and
supportive society. It became a philosophical view for all inclusive coalition
members, since the formation of the coalition to maintaining the bedrock that
epitomizes people’s popular struggle for change.
Alas,
those lofty ideal promises have all diminished within our political sphere;
there are numerous habitual predisposition of factors why some party militants
utter bizzare sentimental rhetoric’s, couple with other unlawful acts within
our mainstream societies. One prime prerequisite are due to the ill breeding by
their political figureheads.
This
tendency has breed hooliganism and violent thugs on the streets. Nevertheless,
galloping many unruly militants trying to unleash their anger in a
misappropriate manner. It is a dutifully bound on President Barrow couple with
his cohorts to revisit mitigation and adaptation effort with incorporation of
traditional method that impacts negatively, on the current state of affairs by
ways of resolving them amicably.
Barrow’s
administration has to immediately Sally forth; in order to secure and adapt a
peace deal rapproachement to ethnic groups that severely at loggerheads for the
past decades.
President
Barrow wishes to lend a ready ear, through research and consultation in order
to secure the restoration of democracy, rule of law and free speech in the
country. That pattern has been quite adrift; there are public backlash from neo
democrats who are now left with the questioning minds on how to make our
participatory democracy an ideal one.
