Wanker of the day: Nderry Mbai

Todays Wanker of the day is Horomsi... one of the fictitious names Nderry created for himself. Nderry's wankery has no bounds. Take this street rumor he just published as an example:

Horomsi:Gambia's President Yahya Jammeh to hand over the country to Gen.Tamba?? State House insider leaks Jammeh's plans!

For real? When is this monumental shift in power slated to hit the hizzy? Don't get any silly ideas. It is just one of those sensational headlines that nderry blazoned on his site to get your attention. However reading the first stanza makes you realize what a buffon this journalist wannabe is. Here is the first sentence in his story:

If the information I received from this State House insider, is to go by, President Yahya Jammeh is likely to hand over the country to General Lang Tombong Tamba pretty soon.

That clearly showed that nderry alias horomsi has some doubts vis-a-vis the validity of the information. Due diligence warrants that you verify before you published such a sensational story. Not nderry...he is as usual publishing incendiary stories that could undermined the tribal harmony of his countrymen. Here is an example of that from the same story:

Jammeh said so many bad things against the Mandingka tribe. For Jammeh, the Mandingkas should not be allowed to rule the Gambia anymore. He wants his own people to take charge of the affairs of the state.
Can you believe this chap...nderry is projecting his own tribal hatred here. This is the kind of stupid rhetoric that start civil strife. With freedom of speech comes responsibility especially when you are reporting heresay. Nderry should have learnt a lesson from his NADD disintergration articles. He was used by Juwara and Co. to malign the character of their opponents and in the process helped derail that fragile coalition. Now he is using made up quotes from made up permanent secretaries to create a Jola hegemony trying to dominate their fellow Gambians.

This is not a child's play nderry. Please stop the demagoguery while you are still ahead.
