NO I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THIS OPERATION , WHY LEAVING THE EMBASSY AFTER MAKING THE POOR GAMBIANS CRY 😭😭😭
Is very sad😢
Very sad 😢
They should not leave the embassy because that place is only rent by them a Gambian like us own it so it should be treated the same like everybody period white people respect laws more than anybody ok. So if embassy are protected wit their property so why the Marrocan's embassy was touch???? 🤷♀️
Embassy is a country he can’t be touched
Gambian don't love itd own people..very sad 😢
Mr Manneh be truthful, you told all the businesses that “where your fence stop is where your property ends” but allow the American Embassy to block the entire road. This is typical injustice to the other businesses.
Totally agree with you , if the Gambian embassy in USA was blocking the new high way they would knock it down ,
Thats an embassy for Gods shake. Gambian embassy in the United states will be treated same. Dont know why people are stupid.
@@modous.kebbeh2376 If that's the case them I guess business whose properties align with the embassy don't need to go down hence, even if the road is going to be expanded if it does not affect the embassy neither should the properties close to it in the same dimension.
And by the way other countries know how to plan for the future in case of population growth and road expansion.
Just wimps! It's sad fearing the Americans and destroying your own people livelihood.
@@modous.kebbeh2376 The American Embassy here is rented from a well known business man. The projection into the road was done AFTER they rented the Embassy. Therefore, technically, it SHOULD considered illegal.
Mr Manneh when this project started was friendly and had manners with people . Now he speaks to people like dirt and is very disrespectful to most no longer asking but demanding ! He is like a dictator that the power has went to his head certainly not what you would expect a government official and being broadcast around the world. His tow truck is going to be busy .
"Taskforce arrived at American Embassy Kairaba Avenue"... AND CAME BACK !!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Bro bro bro 😡
American embassy should never be exempted. The same rules applies to them too
Embassies can use any measure deemed fit for their security.
Yes it will be done in diplomatic way either the american ambassy to be relocated
For a Civil Servant, Mr Manneh's communication skills leave a lot to be desired.
As a Gambian, One cannot help being embarrassed listening to him.
Compared to Civil Servants of other African countries, our standard is very poor, truth be told.
How about the president’s reading and communication skills lol
You must be mad.. he is not a British.. British people can't speak our language too.. don't be silly please,..😮
Keep the good work ❤
Iam a fan of Manneh & the good job he’s doing BUT certain remarks about nationality isn’t necessary, please keep it professional thank you 🙏🏾.
I agree. I'm a fan of Mr Manneh but his remarks to the Lebanese is ridiculous.
@@pasteef234 HE IS RIGHT
What’s good about this?
I’m Senegalese, but I’m supporting this operation, is Manneh a minister or something?
Manneh is the Prezident
Assuming nationalities based solely on the color of one's skin is not only ethically wrong but also deeply flawed and unjust. Nationality is a legal status that encompasses a multitude of factors, including birthplace, residency, and contribution to the local and national communities. The color of one's skin SHOULD NEVER be used as the sole determinant of one's nationality, as it disregards the complexities of individual histories and experiences.
In the past videos here on this UA-cam channel along with other channels and conversations throughout The Gambia have highlighted the pervasive issue of unequal treatment based on factors such as appearance, language, and religion. People have spoken out about how our fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, and fellow citizens are subjected to discrimination and mistreatment simply because they do not fit certain societal norms. However, such attitudes are not only unjust but also detrimental to the fabric of our society. Instead of perpetuating cycles of discrimination and prejudice, we should strive to be a beacon of equality and fairness.
Yes, We must address the issue of how Gambians who move abroad are sometimes not treated equally. This discrepancy in treatment is unacceptable and goes against the principles of fairness and equality. As a society, we should strive to be an example to others and not allow ourselves to be manipulated or used as pawns in a game of chess by other countries. Every Gambian, regardless of their location or circumstances, deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and equality. It's essential that we work towards creating a society where all Gambians, whether at home or abroad, feel valued and empowered to contribute to the betterment of our nation.
As a society, we should actively challenge discrimination and prejudice wherever we encounter it. By fostering a culture of acceptance and understanding, we can create a more harmonious and equitable society for all. Let us reject the notion that cruelty and injustice are acceptable responses to differences and instead embrace the richness of diversity that strengthens our communities.
Refocusing on the current issue in this video, it's crucial to acknowledge that while encroaching on public land should not be condoned, there are circumstances where such actions serve the greater good of society. However, we cannot overlook the significant impact these actions have on individuals and families. Thousands find themselves displaced, facing not only the loss of income but also a sense of belonging. Consider, for example in a prrevious viedo, a shopkeeper who recently rented space with his wife, was put in a very difficult situation, only to have Mr. Mannah swiftly demolish their livelihood. These individuals have poured their hopes and dreams into their businesses, and to see them dismantled without warning strikes a deep blow to their dignity and security.
Similarly affected are the local restuarnts, providing nutrious meals to the working population, or the women who painstakingly gather funds to purchase fresh produce at wholesale to resale in order to better their families. The farmers and gardeners, who invested weeks, if not months, in cultivating crops to bring to market, only to be forsed to relocate. It's unrealistic to assume that every Gambian possesses the financial means to purchase land worth millions of Dalasis and establish a business. We must acknowledge the immense struggles and sacrifices endured by Gambians from all walks of life to reach their current positions. Disregarding these challenges, regardless of skin color, tribe, or religious belief, overlooks the hardships faced by ordinary citizens in our society.
This raises serious questions in my eyes, about the true intentions of Mr. Mannah and his associates. If they are truly working for the people, why are they only now demanding that we as a whole society, who have invested millions in hard-earned cash to build up this nation, tear down the very fabric that makes The Gambia what it is today? Are their actions aimed at immediate improvements to benefit society, such as expanding roads, building sewage systems, and creating safer walking environments through the implementation of Complete Streets? The Lands office has failed us as a society by not doing their job correctly, many times not even showing up to the location when we paid for a survey. If one looks at Google Maps, one can clearly see how the plot of land looks like, but the Lands office hand draws something that is totally fabricated out of thin air. So please do tell us as citizens, residents, and fellow human beings, what is the Lands office truly doing?"
If Mr. Mannah and his associates are sincere in their commitment to the well-being and progress of the nation, their actions should demonstrate transparency through a comprehensive strategy, ensuring that we, the people, are well-informed via radio, TV, print (digital and paper), enabling us not only to track the progress but see to the fact we all will benifit from this progress and not just the very few at the top.
Furthermore, for Mr. Mannah and his associates at the Lands Office to play favorites in the "Decision" of national security by exempting certain embassies and their holdings while destroying others and their close neibors, is not only morally reprehensible but also undermines the principles of justice and equality. Such favoritism erodes trust in the government and perpetuates inequality and injustice within our society. All individuals and institutions should be treated fairly and equally under the law, regardless of their affiliations or connections. This raises legitimate concerns among average citizens about whether Mr. Mannah is being influenced or even bribed to conduct his destructive actions under the table, betraying the public's trust and compromising the integrity of his office. Such suspicions must be thoroughly investigated to uphold the rule of law and restore faith in the governance system.
Lastly, it's crucial to acknowledge that this issue is not as black and white as it may seem; rather, it is complex in nature and requires a nuanced approach. The challenges faced by individuals and communities affected by arbitrary decisions such as those made by Mr. Mannah are multifaceted and deeply intertwined with socioeconomic realities. Therefore, it is imperative that these issues are addressed in a manner that is just and equitable, taking into account the diverse range of factors at play. Every decision made by those in positions of power must be guided by principles of fairness, transparency, and accountability to ensure that the rights and dignity of all individuals are upheld.
Mr Manneh big respect to you, this lebanese cannot be a gambian even if he resides in the country for a billion years it’s the same thing in Lebabon for any african migrant
Do you know wether he was born in Gambia or having citizenship. Racist fool
My friend you got it all wrong some of them are born in the Gambia
Very ignorant of you. 2 wrongs dont make right.
Where you from?

But why did they demolished some parts of the Moroccan embassy if the us embassy is protected. Or maybe the Moroccan embassy is not protected? Just a question and wondering. No insults plz.
I believe it was a mistake and they were not oriented well before getting to the Moroccan embassy.
@@NiceGambia yeah maybe
@@NiceGambiayow bro don’t involve yr self in this u are a youtuber be neutral and be professional i have been following you for long time but am disappointed with u
Exactly my point
This operation is trash
If you are a Gambian as Manneh then how can you bring your embassy to Gambia
American embassy is exempt because of security . Plus the amount of dollars donated to the Gambia.
What about the poor GAMBIAN WIDOWS SELLING ON THE ROAD SIDE N FAR FROM THE ROAD TO FEED THEIR FAMILIES??? ONE RULE MUST APPLY TO ALL.
@@g24tv4 the American embassy contracts lots of Gambians to work there so they provide income . The measures outside ( security blocks ) provide safety for all inside including Gambian workers. American embassies around the world unfortunately are high risk targets .
You have to pull down the American Embassy too.
Terrible move from the task force. Embassies and homes of the ambassador is protected by international law but that’s only within the confines of that property (within the fences). Anything outside that property line isn’t protected under any international law. They can have security stand outside the fence but no permanent structures should be erected. Show Gambians you mean business by not showing favoritism. Now all will see this as a joke. You had an opportunity to make a big statement about the intent of this and you failed tremendously
well said.
Happy to spoil your fellow's property but left the US embassy that put strictures right in the road. The road is not embassy property.
This military and para military who were closed to him they know their job well l aprciete them let them give them a gift so that they will be happy
No is not equal that building is own by Basiru Jawara, not the Embassy the Embassy is just renting it.
Hi Fellow Gambians, we want to talk to The American Embassy to take a bit of their International Immunity to sacrifice and REDUCE a bit of their Security Barrier so as to enable The OIC Road construction to be in line with the Road which is aimed to be widen at their End, otherwise at The American Embassy End, the Road is going to be narrow thus making it very odd.
We send this REQUEST to The American Embassy in The Name of The Gambian People. Thanks
This is beautiful 😂
Positive word mr baboucarr
Thanks.@@popisitalia336
Thanks.
It will be done but in diplomatic way either american ambassy to relocate
Selective justice is injustice
❤
Shame to you wicked gambians leaders this so called demolition team are not fair to the gambians destroying our own gambian property even our mosque you are telling us that American embassy is protected but you go and demolished Moroccan embassy Mr you are not fair to the gambians And God almighty will judge you wicked leaders
Manneh is right. You are not.
Wtf he said the Embassy is protected when they’ve occupied the whole road, that’s really sad to hear
😌 so we the locals are not protected equally 😮, that’s bull sheet, there aren’t justice
Embassy property should not go down but Gambia property should go down for name of road enlargement, but my question is embassy building is on the road but there property as the said and what about the property of the Gambian,
For that it has to be diplomatic way either american ambassy to relocate to Somewhere
It's very wrong and rude of manneh telling that guy to go back to his country. After all the man is Gambian just like him but he judged him by his skin color. Even if he wasn't Gambian, someone like manneh isn't expected to be the one saying such. Very disgraceful behavior there from Mr manneh.. No to xenophobia and r@c!sm. 😭
Unprofessional 😑
Manneh is right, this lebanese cannot be a gambian even if he resides in the country for a billion years it’s the same thing in Lebabon for any african migrant
Mr Manneh didn't insult that man.He was merely trying to explain that the embassy grounds belong to that particular embassy,so cannot be touched. Which would be the same law in that man's country. Then the man tried saying that he himself was a Gambian.
@bj7643 you don´t get him to my understanding what Manneh is saying is that if he go back to his country and they bring him as an ambassador his property will not be touch .....peace
@@KebbaFanDing there's no way you can twist this my friend. One must never tell someone to go back to their country.. And after all the guy turned out to be a Gambian just like him. He just assumed based on his skin color which is r@cial profiling.
What is the purpose of all this
Well I want to somebody explain this for me what law guided American embassy would not guide gambian citizen
This is not fair mr xxxxxx
Wen they said all man are equal under the rules of law,they mean all poor man are
This "headmaster" must be the most hated man in Gambia today. 😂😅
This man has become a mini dictator . Power has gone to his head .
one thing that irritates me about the Gambia street videos is that there are no sidewalks! people have to walk on dirt
Is the American Embassy going down or not
Never we not equipped for that level
That’s a bad word telling someone to go back to their countries … be nice to them
So what about the morocan ambassy ? You didn't say the same thing about their property ownership
Why America embassy went is time for development no need to favor anyone
American embassy c high way b Len neka so everything most go down is unfair
The demolition team need to be well equipped.
Pluz the so-called journalist aswel they are so unprofessional
So is meant that American Embassy is above the law
Then the law is not competent nobody is above the law. The white man is right and he knows his right.
Manneh should not be telling people to go back to their country. I support the operations but lets try to be professional. There are a lot Gambians outside the Gambia who are citizens of other countries.
The American embassy should not be exempted.
Rule for one is rule for All .
Damn they don’t even allow camera at the American Embassy.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice Gambia didn't even show us American embassy chai. Lucky child with the crew this one hit me hard
Then when the roads are cleared what next I hope to see the roads tarred n in good condition if this current admin leaves without doing anything as per their intentions of wanting to widen the roads after all this is set and done then they'll have the Gambian people to knock their asses
Diplomatic immunity... This is bigger than them🤭
WE HAVE LOT OF THINGS TO DO IN GAMBIA BUT NOT THIS LET THEM BELL THE ROADS FIRST IS THE MOST IMPORTANT DURING RAINING SESSION YOU CAN NOT PASS ANY WHERE
What's going on with the Gambians they can't go out and fight for their rights
Why the Americans Embassy shouldn't be tough down waaw very disappointed
Ambassy and their properties are protected while individuals and their properties are not protected very sad 😮
This is not fair
I never knew my Gambia had two constitution, what is ambassador property.? Did the ambassador vote for u to govern us. Why's that white European and American given more right in my own Gambia. Slavery shall end.
Oh my god that's why corruption is rampant in Africa are we not equal to the law?
😢😢😢😢😢😢
You cant say NO to the rich for telling you to go and cause suffering to the poor because you fear the prison and loosing your job but you not fear what God will do to you and your entire generation
Everybody is silent bcz the Hypocrite is the majority Senegal United to build there country Gambia united to destroy there country...he talk very nice to the bank manager and talk rudely to the poor and helpless once...
This is total hypocrisy.
Good question No1 sport shop makes nonsense, how can embassies have more rights in our own country and they're saying the rules of laws that govern us gave them the power to do this operation so why not the embassies
An embassy is a foreign territory in the country it’s a international law and we need to build our cities better we build buildings without parking lots
Its a big shame
This is not fare is like emvassy is above the law
This operation is making the whole country look ugly 😢
This is more of a making the poor poorer kinna operation
This operation team are very rude and arrogant, but watch and see the end of them you don go around destroying people's properties like trash not everyone will leave you like that
They coursing more hungry and sufferness in the Gambia
I do my fellow, Gambians, think a light skin person can be a Gambian
They just dumb… here i am i was born and brought up in this country. But the discrimination is too much
Yo wat bout the American embassy Mr manneh I like ur work but something r not right fr
I'm not agree with you Mr maneh I have seen one of your operations that you asking Morocco embassy to move out of the road area, which is no difference with American embassy .
The American Embassy is not included why.? Is it above The GAMBIA Law ? The Gambia Law is above any Institution. That is A BIG FACT.
Usa is above all men law that’s the fact
Manner 😂
This operation has failed why avoiding the the American Embassy
Wtf 😮😮😮
Am completely disappointed , you have right to demolish tax payers property ,as for American embassy is exempt , you have no clue on international matters , why are we still maintaining Jonny boy style .when it comes to national development no embassy or institutions is above the law of the land .these is a clear manifestation of your incompetence and lack of justice , .and mind your language you are not out there to pinpoint who is a gambian and who is not . But time will tell .
MANNEH IS RIGHT
America na your mate
@@hojagaye3551 like seriously ? Wel in these case manneh and the team are doing illegal demolition .rule for one is for all , but as you said America noo be my mate , but naa country we they talk.
You are talking about USA 🇺🇸 they way beyond us
Gambia 😂😂😂🎉
Why are you laughing 🤣
Because I am very angry about the government
And this is not good for your children in this video you are doing please stop it fam do you have to show us anything but not this kind of video is very sad blie
@@abdulsowe6368 MANNEH FOR PRESIDENT. PERIOD
But that's nonsense. Why is the Embassy there and you guys demolished Moroccan Embassy? Is it not their property, too?
These so call authorities think we in Germany
Gambia nek fi American mo gen nekfi gambian
My question is what criteria are they using there doesn't seem to be any measurements made....I can clearly see inferiority complex bugging this short guy....
boy be careful how you respond people know your job
You're not qualify for that position really to be frank😮
Do not mention others to go back to their countries, it's not nice.
Gambian is a prank
This is not a good work any more 😢
When was it ever a good work?
boy be careful of how you respond people know your job please bro
Corrupt people
I swear you people don't know your job
This is not the property of the Embassy is the property of the Gambia so you lie there
That building used to be owned by Uncle Badisirou Jawara . I remember when we were kids the building was called the White House and had no fence around it. In those days the building felt as if it was deeply inside. Years later it became the US embassy and was extended further towards where the main road is today. There is a possibility that, that the extra space leading to the road is extended for the sake of security which is understandable.
