MC Cham has betrayed the trust and confidence GDC has reposed in him over the years. MC Cham JNR as the former National Youth President and GDC Campaign Manager now a UDP supporter while occupying an Executive position in the GDC was selling and supporting the agenda of the UDP for 2 years before exiting GDC.
This came to light when MC was being welcomed to the UDP at their Manjai Bureau with the presence of Mayor Bensouda, His Excellency Ousainou Darboe and other UDP big wings of the party.
In Mayor Bensouda’s words, MC Cham JNR was supporting them (UDP) for over 2 years and selling their agenda nationwide while the two years Mayor Bensouda referred to find MC Cham as the National Youth President and later as the campaign manager of the party.
I was shocked and worried because after 7 years of struggles in the party that he was part of, I was never with the beliefs that he could undermine the party he claimed to love and died for. Uncountable times, MC Cham has openly said he will be the last man to leave the GDC when in reality he has parted ways with us (GDC) since 2021 mobilizing support for UDP.
MC Cham JNR was given all the support he ever needed in the party and this was the least that anyone expected from someone who advocated for decency, loyalty and principles in our politics.
As campaign Manager of the GDC party after our 2022 Congress, MC Cham JNR was expected to campaign for our candidates but he never did while his all efforts were centred around Mayor Bensouda before the GDC eventually threw its support to Bensouda candidacy.
We have our disappointment over this revelation and with profound honesty there will be no party that will have your National Youth President/ Campaign manager campaigning for a party that he is not member to or undermining it and you spare his head.
We have reserved our respect for MC Cham JNR with all the things that were happening and as the red line was drawn we decided to suspense him on the background that he will re-organise his thoughts and do the needful.
I want to make this very clear that MC Cham JNR has all right to join any political party of his choice which will never be my problem but you cannot undermined the GDC for two years as Mayor Bensouda confirmed in your welcoming to the UDP and expect these hidden truth to be buried.
We have Executive members that left the party but none of them has never undermined or go against the GDC while occupying a position in the party or as a member of our party. With everything that was said to Dr. Demba Sabally the now Minister of Agriculture, he has campaigned against the GDC when he has already left the party.
In as much as we preach for good principles in our politics, it is very important to compliment it with actions as honesty helps us in developing good attributes: kindness, discipline, truthfulness, moral integrity and more. Honest people are sincere, trustworthy and loyal throughout their lives.
Finally, it is very paramount for a great caution to be taken in our political operation because those that continuously spread the words that Politics has nothing to do with our religion are lost individuals because whatever we do should go side-by-side with our religion. Our religion teaches us to be honest, to be grateful, loyal and be selfless and these are good attributes that one should always work by irrespective of doing politics or not. If Islam has nothing to do with politics then count me out as a politician.
