Perspective: The Gambia's Inspector General of Police Must Protect the Rights of the Ahmaddiya | Fatou Jagne


No one stops the Supreme Islamic Council from applying for a TV station. Why can’t you establish your own TV station instead of attacking the Ahmadiyas having in mind that our country is a secular state?

The so-called Supreme Islamic Council and their imams are the very ones the Inspector General of Police must invite to give them a stern warning to desist from hate and bigotry and discrimination against other sections of The Gambian population on account of their religion. The Supreme Islamic Council is violating The Gambian Constitution in multiple provisions including entrenched provisions by its constant and determined assault on the Ahmaddiya.

Hence now is the time for the police to stand up to protect the rights of the Ahmaddiya. The police cannot arrest a mere university professor for speaking his mind and offering advice to the president yet that same Police remains silent when a religious group spews hate and prejudice against a whole body of citizens. The IG cannot deny a group of citizens from occupying Westfield for poor electricity services on the basis of national security yet ignores another group that direct insults at another group of Gambians on account of their religion.
