Dhanjee Moves To Void Seychelles
Mr. Viral Dhanjee has filed his Petition before the Constitutional Court of Seychelles to void and nullify the entire Presidential Elections of 2011, for being denied the right to participate in the democratic process by the Electoral Commissioner, contrary to guarantees under the Seychelles Human Rights Charter.
Constitutional Court in Conspiracy To Sham Elections
Mr. Dhanjee won a case before the Constitutional Courts of Seychelles, wherein the Three (3) panel judge ruled that he has a constitutional right to participate in the affairs of state. However, in conspiracy with the Executive Branch of government under James Michel, the Constitutional Court
The Constitution of Seychelles is a modern document that unlike many other constitutions, it prescribes remedies for violation of human rights and individual rights. The Court went conveniently blind, and conveniently forgot how to read the Constitution of Seychelles.
It clearly was not an error nor was it incompetence, because the Judge reading the judgment was no other than Justice Bernadin Renaud, the person who officiated over the drafting of the Seychelles Constitution. He knows every violation of right must have a remedy. The Constitutional Court
Courts in The Sham
The Viral Dhanjee case along with the MSR case for party registration has blown open the Courts of Seychelles conspiracy with the Executive Branch to prop up the sham regime of James Alix Michel. MSR case is on appeal as well. In MSR case, the Attorney General cited not one case law, and won the case. The Judge took no Judicial Notice of the Fundamental Human Rights Charter of the Constitution of Seychelles. He even inferred conduct and action by mere speculation.
Court of Appeal In Conspiracy To Sham Elections
On Appeal to stop the elections, Mr. Dhanjee faced Justice Francis Macgregor and his request to stop the Presidential Elections of 2011 was denied on the argument of the “Balance of Convenience”. Anyone who has any knowledge of Constitutional law will know that the “Balance of Convenience Test” does not apply to fundamental human rights. With this erroneous decision, the courts can rule that the Balance of Convenience” made it appropriate to kill a person that was running away from the Police.
Another erroneous error by Justice Macgregor that calls into question the independence of the Judiciary in Seychelles with red lights, is the decision to allow the Attorney General to file an Affidavit in his own name, on behalf of the Electoral Commissioner who did not file an Affidavit, though he is a Defendant Respondent in the case.
Justice Macgregor accepted a substituted Affidavit in the name of Mr. Ronny Govinden the Attorney General. In any democratic, law abiding society no judge would, even if he was biased, allow such flawed documentation to be filed by the State Counsel.
In any State that is democratic, a State Counsel filing such erroneous documents to balance a human rights case would be terminated immediately. Instead, what did we see after the Sham Election results? The Attorney General lining up to kiss the Sham elected President on the lawn of State House as if the Oscar Awards were up and the Best Actors were being rewarded and recognized.
Void Sham Elections of 2011
Mr. Dhanjee’s case to void the elections of 2011 will be heard on June 14th, 2011. If the Constitutional Court is truly independent, he will win his case and elections will be declared null and void Ab Initio because a candidate that should have been on the ballot paper was missing and there was reasonable time to have placed him on the Presidential Ballot Paper.
These cases have exposed the rig process and the sham elections better than any Commonwealth Observer Report could do justice to Seychelles Seychelles
As we wait for the court ruling, we are already in a One Party State Seychelles
We must now call for a new constitutional conference roundtable for new laws and new rules to be enacted and put in place. Then we will pass that and then we can have decent civilized elections, without vote rigging and election sham.
SNP is duty bound to Boycott the PL until a Constitutional Conference is duly announced. Nothing else will do at this point.
We must step up the campaign to Boycott key activities and key crony businesses.
James Michel has wiped out the Ferrari car with a SHAM!

May God Bless All Freedom Loving Seychellois!
press on harder opposition until it cracks open
ReplyDeleteI applaud Christopher for the determination that he shows, but I ask the question whether Seychellois, in their majority care about what is going on. They've sleep-walked into the election and on Sunday will again make their way to Victoria to "celebrate James michel's decisive victory". They'll go back to bed without being able to wash away the dust and the sweat, but do they care? Do they see anything dodgy with an arab sheikh pumping money into their country? Would they ask why? Because if they cared, if they really cared about the future of their country and that of their children, they'd be doing something about it.Don't blame SNP for this. You can bring a cow to the stream but you cannot force it to drink. Clearly, Seychellois are happy and contented with their lot. I say, "dekile SNP, les Jj travay"
ReplyDeleteI agree, Seychellois are happy in the shit that James Michel has dragged them in. They've drunk delo kaka and if they're not careful they are going to be made to eat it. And they'll be happy and thank "nou prezidan" for the privilege and honour. Our country is doomed and we all along with it.How sad.
ReplyDeleteOn SBC this evening Joel Morgan said that government did not have the means to build dams. Our efficient SBC did not see the need to ask him whether he understood what "prioritising" means. As within a family, government resources will always be limited but it's a question of good planning and setting priorities. The numerous fancy community centres around the country could have been pushed back to later. Their cost, along with the millions spent on new cars for the president's protection, bribing of voters, etc, could have gone some way into getting us another little dam somewhere.
ReplyDeleteRozanmer
Yes, and the endless opening of embassies all over the world that cost the country so much. In UK, for example, government is paying not only for Pat Pillay and his family, but also, a secretary and her family, a PA, a driver and his whole family, a housemaid, ALL flown over from Seychelles. No resources? Lots being wasted on giving some people a cushy job at the expense of the Seychellois population.
ReplyDeleteMorgan should know the country cannot afford to run desalination plants either, they eat electricity and produce poor quality water.
ReplyDeleteMORGAN should jump into a latrine hole and hide himself.What about our u$2,5 billion and the U$4,5 million you personally stole from us Morgan?
ReplyDeleteDesalination plant is very costly ,it requires lots of energy to operate and increase greenhouse gas emissions.The plant itself has a life of 15 years only,according to experts,high costs of maintenance etc...etc and etc...
Communists, guys are the very definition of fIALURE ,lets unite as a people and get those goons out now.

Reply to Majority
ReplyDeleteThe perspective you take is a knee jerk position in light of an apparent defeat.I understand your frustration. I feel your pain. But please consider these points carefully.
PL does not have a majority. That is the whole point of what I have been writing about for Five (5) years.
They rig elections, buy voter ID cards from drug addicts and Bakka slaves before elections.
They compile fake lists for roofing sheets, fridges,toilets, flat screens to manipulate the poor and desperate people of our country that are vulnerable the most, because of PL's failures.
They shower them with artificial attention.
Money is dished out, before elections. One driver collecting people in Praslin had Sr. 250,000.00 to dish out.
It is a highly corrupted and manipulative process.
In addition, state largess is rolled into the effort and state budget as well.
Indian contractors, GOP workers are given red shirts to wear at rally, and stay in the back ground.
GOS employee must show up and must be present at rallies or they lose their jobs if they are not seen by superiors.
Everyone in the rallies have to "check in to someone, say hello see me kinda thing and check me ".
The boat list for Praslin and La Digue is double checked, and 500.00per person or even 1000 at a time is given for a day exursion. Boat owners have to provide the service.
Only use of state apparatus can make this happen.
On the Voters List- fake citizens grace them as much as 5000 . This election 7000.
At Social Security office ID card are made on the double on request without verification.
These are areas that the Observers to not see, because they focus on the process of voting, not the process of shamming elections.
PL is weaker today then ever since 1980. You must remember, politics is not played in the one demension. It is in the 3rd realm. You cannot see the political credibility. You cannot touch it. But it is either there or not.
For PL, it is gone!
They stole the election. It has been exposed to the WORLD. There is no turing back, only moving forward for real FREEDOMS.
I am more hopeful today for change then ever, because in the past we did not expose them, everyone played along.
Seselwa Unite!
Sesel Pou Seselwa!
Christopher Gill
Stolen or not, James Michel is sitting comfortably at state house. Exposing them will not change anything in the short/medium term. There is nothing that happened in the last election that has not happened in previous elections since the return to multi-party politics. Is the system any fairer today than then? Don't think so. Hence my frustration.
ReplyDeleteReply to Frustrated-
ReplyDeleteI understand your pain. We all are living through it.
Question: Is the Elections Stolen?
Yes or No:
Answer: Yes. All elections have been stolen. But this is the first election that anyone called for a BOYCOTT, myself and MSR ( Blocked Party) , Viral Dhanjee ( Blocked Independent Candidate).
This is the first election wherein the candidates called the elections a SHAM: Ramkalawan, Boulle Volcere.
The elections were not Free and fair. No Observer can claim this.
What does that mean and what is different today from the past?
We are calling for BOYCOTT of PL and we will engage in politics of BOYCOTT Peaceful, passive resistence.
Once 55% of the Seychellois tune in, they will do the same.
The country will come to a stand still until a Constitutional Conference is called for to renegotiate the conditions of the broken social contract between all parties.
This is the first item on the agenda. Everything else must wait until this matter is resolved.
People cannot be governed if they do not agree in a bona fide manner to be governed by anyone.
Secondly, we have exposed Michel on the international front.
Today, international writers, tune in to Seychelles: Ben Carson from Africa Think Tank, Moron from AFP Africa others from AFP and Telegraph.
These writers are tuned in to Seychelles reality,because today, unlike the past, we can give them information in real time. We interact with them like they are in Victoria, sometimes they are.
John Bingham of Telegrpah was here last week on assignment.
On the diplomatic scene , everyone knows what Khalifa is doing in Seychelles, it is not a secret and it is not sustainble.
The problem we had in the past was we have had an opposition that plays for the pocket and dosh from SPPF PL. They do not play for real Freedom.
If you demand real Freedom, sooner or later you will get it.
It is time for each Seychellois to ask what they can do with their talents and skills, resources, to bring about change in Seychelles.
I am doing what I can. I am only one man. I cannot get there without help.
The time to resolve to remove this Communist Government once and for all is now!
You cannot even take a bath in Seychelles, or flush a toilet, what more evidence of failure do you need?
If you think things are the same as ever before: google Seychelles Sham ELections, Seychelles Rigged ELections, Seychelles Communists.
Seselwa Unite!
Sesel Pou Seselwa!

Do Morgan and Michel think we are really proud that we depend on Khalifa to get water ? We are ashamed.
ReplyDeleteNarcissus at STB is particularly virulent at weekend when it invades Seychelles Nation.
ReplyDeleteNarcissus press releases now tell us that every coverage that Seychelles get in the international press is due to the work of Alain St Ange.
He had nothing to do with the Royals' decision to honeymoon in Seychelles. He did not respect their privacy -- he announced to the world that they had arrived as soon as their plane touched down in Seychelles.
St. Ange has gone over the top.
ReplyDeleteIt fits in his thinking: any coverage is good coverage.
That is why he likes the articles of Sham Elections in Seychelles all over the net.
The Bottom Line Results of his work are starting to reveal the reality of the effort.

ReplyDeleteExposing PP HAS change many things and more will come sooner than latter:If PP called in Interantional Observers becuase it ias not becuase Pp wanted that but because of pressure, though not to our satisfaction.
ReplyDelete-The world knows about Michel and his thugs , but also about Khalifa astrocious act of shiting in our rivers .
-
-American courts know Michel and pp for stealing millions of dollars from American nationals like Mr. lee and others. By the way,Obama is watching and has again repeated his willingness to help those fighting against dictators more than ever.
-Interantional Human rights body knows Pp for not providing records on Human rights for the last thirty-four years.
-SADC-has also exposed PP rigged election.
-International press etc.. have been breaking the telephone of Chris to have information on election and other issues.All these things are pressuring Pp to change its way.
.ANd we are going to continue the pressure and exposure of Pp unstill it is on its knees and unstill domocracy become the norm in this country.
It should be also noted that in most if not all of those circumstances where Pp has been exposed it was becuase of the ,hard work,leadership of one man namely Chris.It has taken sometime to have an effect on PP but his perseverance,patriotism, and determination has proven to be successful and useful.he struggle is now bearing fruits.
.Just image if we would have put our trust in the likes of RAM probably all our patrimony would have already been gifted to foreigners by now and our people would have been turned into slavery long ago.
There is no need to be frustrated.Frustration kills one^s activeness and motivation that in turn w plays in the favor of PP,that is exactly what Pp wants and has been doing for the last thirty-four years.there is a wind of change blowing constantly on this country no one could stop it .

no one is saying somethings about the court rapel. Only 1 judge does it form a korum? all other cases appears more than 1 judge why? if not good order is same as no order because is no court. maybe is because some just dont knows. same with first case who cancel danjee from list? commissioner or officer? if officer does he has the power in the laws? no one challenge commissioner why he not anser questions in court.
ReplyDeleteThe court appeal demonstrate once agin that our juridicial system is not free and independent.There decisions are arbitary,irresponsible as unacceptable.Autocratic system to the likes of Pp treat law and court in an instrumental fashion and keep judges and dependent and responsive to their desires.
ReplyDeleteJeanne DÂrc
Reply to Jeanne D'Arc comment on our work.
ReplyDeleteI have been a front man in this effort. But believe me, I have never been alone.
There are perhaps the smartest and brightest Seychellois, who love their country who have helped me every step of the way. I listen and learn from them.
I do not reveal their names because they are humble and devoted to see "Sesel Pou Seselwa"!
They are also devoted to seeing "Seselwa Unite" to remove this Communist scourge from our country.
These patriotic men and women I work with, make me proud to be a Seychellois! They sacrifice when called to sacrifice, and they helped straighten the back of a ailing opposition for 5 years now.
Exposing SPPF did not come in one day. It came in many years of hard hitting articles.I have over 20 volumes of articles, enough for the same amount of books with golden lacing, but these self endowment efforts, are not where change rests.
The ideas these patriots share with me, their sentiments shared, have strenghtened my resolve to press on.
We must not spend too much time naming our fallen brothers. We all know them. We must pray for them, but at the same time, never let them forget that what they have done to spite Ramkalawan, they have in the process hurt Seychelles and her people. For this, we will never pardon until they seek pardon.
When they do, we must remember that they are our brothers, fallen as they are, and when ready, you must pick them up and slog on.
In accepting them , down the road, you will open the door for blind SPPF PL to follow them out of darkness.
Change will come. Michel has done us so many favors, he does not even know it.
He has done great dis -service to his own Party. They will soon see.

All this will make sense to me when Seychellois wake up one day and march onto state house. Until then, we on this blog will continue to be lone voices in the wilderness. Tomorrow, when our brothers and sisters turn out on Freedom square in their thousands to drink and dance away in the dust will be another concrete proof that they are happy with their lot.
ReplyDeleteThere was something in SBC news this week that made me laugh. No, not the Mancham's interview.
ReplyDeleteA Parti Lepep MNA said that the allegation of waste, vote-buying etc were making some people scared and giving some people a "medical condition". Let's hope it gives all of them in PL a medical condition. They are the ones responsible.
I think she was saying these allegations will give them a heart attack ! Bring it on.

ReplyDeleteI am an ordinary Seychellois playing my little part and in the way i can to fight PP autocratic system.I believe in democracy ,you do not so we do not have anything in common.You worship Pp tyranny and i worship freedom.You must not have fear from us,what we are flighting for is our rights and duty as a people in order that you can live in peace without the fear of being spy on by Pp thugs,without the fear being intimidated,repressed,but free to express yourself,to freedom of assembly,freedom of speech and all the others benefits democracy entails.Fighting for freedom means walking though rocky roads and it is a heavy load to carry but it worth taking this path for at the end of the road, is DEMOCRACY,once you have a tast of it you will forget all those years of risks,hardship you encounter along the way.It Democracy means life ,terror means death TIK TOK you are free to choose what fits you best.But one thing must be clear to Pp and his ilks we are here to stay and we will fight to the last bullet unstill we gain our GOD given freedom and liberties.

Air France has given up 5% of its seats on Air Seychelles. It says it cannot sell the seats. Where does Alain St Ange get his information that tourist arrivals are up ?
ReplyDeleteAir Seychelles has asked AF for more money. AF will now sell fewer seats. Back to square one.
ReplyDeleteFewer tourists. Air Seychelles will get the same money as before. What's the point ???
ReplyDeleteStill no news from government of Seychelles that Khalifa is in the country. UAE announced he has left for Seycheles with the usual tralala. Is he slipping in and out of our country unannounced and unwelcomed like a thief in the night.
ReplyDeleteWhile you guys are blogging away about freedom, corruption, napa delo, Khalifa, do you see the crowd on Freedom Square for the "victory rally" and the anniversary of kicking Mancham in power? Who's right? They or us?
ReplyDeleteSomeone asked about the logic in St Ange's assertion that tourist numbers are going up. You have clearly not realised that the man is part of the bat latet team. He's now banking on Etihad. More and more we're entirely dependent on middle eastern airlines to transport our tourist.But the fact still remains that the revenue does not follow the supposed increase in tourist arrivals. The tourism trade better offload St ange fast before he sinks us all.
ReplyDelete45% said clearly that they do not want Parti Lepep. They were not bribed. They received no money, no promises, no free beer nor burgers. They were not threatened to vote for the opposition. They voted for the opposition because they believe in a better Seychelles, free and democratic Seychelles.
ReplyDelete45% are right.
How many of them on Freedom Square really care about the direction this country is taking.
ReplyDeleteKaplemoi cherry
ReplyDeleteI want to inform you that there are more of us that you may ever think.But I know you know this too.
This is why your party is very afraid, and they did not allow us to our right to vote.
We will challenge your government who lives on begging and begging, nothing more, nothing less. This is a FACT.

However, I find nothing slick in your efforts.
Many people do not know or do not recall, but you are the designer of Zomn Lib. You designed him and you think nothing of the pain Zomn Lib brings to thousands of Seychellois.
Now, your crass sarcasm only shows us all that you are bankrupt of ideas. It is ideas that you fear.
Because Zomn lib was not designed out of any idea. Just an emotion that went stale.
Whent the second wave of devaluaiton hits us, it has already started, what will Zomn Lib do for all those people in Red Shirts dancing in the streets, with bakka in one hand and their mug in another?

Many people do not know how it feels to be impowered as Citizens.
That is because in Communism it is the Party that is empowered.
In an Autocracy- it is the single leader that is empowered.

My favourite image in the last two weeks is the sight of Ratko Mladic, indicted for war crimes, wearing his cap. Didn't he just remind you of Albert Rene ?
ReplyDeleteSo, we're all agreed that Seychellois are happy with their "autocracy". "dictatorship".
ReplyDeleteWhy are we on this blog?
What we can say on Pp rally is it shows us how ill our society is after thirty-four years of dictatorship and how much work we will have do in order heal our people once we get rid of Pp.These are people who have lost hope and felt into consuming alcohol as a means to forget their daily burden Pp brought on them.I do not think in their majority they get to freedom square to not support Pp but rather to get the daily dose of alcohol they need to keep them going on,and forget the misery they in.It could have been a Rally organised by RAM still they would have turn up if there were bakka on offer free of charge.All these weird things they doing is the effects of alcohol not beucase they are emthusiastic by PP faked victory.Once the morning breaks and they get back into their normal state of mind , many would probably say what for a mistake i did or what did i do yesterday.Our people have a problem cause by thirty-four years of communism that has turned them into second class citizens,without jobs and money where alcohol is their only remedy they have found to ease their suffering.

On liberation day 2011, 25,000 are not connected to the 55% president.
ReplyDeletePrea participated in a national assembly function which was somewhat strange. But surely he can see that without broadcasting and electoral reforms, he will kiss goodbye to Bel Ombre. Are they all thinking they can get back as a proportional member ?? Cut out the farce.
ReplyDeleteMuch as I want to have something to cling to, to convince myself that my people are as intelligent as any other, I cannot accept the blogger's argument that everyone on Freedom Square today were drunk or people who came down for a free drink. If we allow ourselves to believe this, then we deserve to be where we are: behind our computers and laptops philosophying. Because that's all we seem to be good at. Let's share our views amongst ourselves, as if the people out there gave a rat's ass what we thought.
ReplyDeleteSov nou pei.
To our all-powerful, incredible, super, fantastic, opportunistic CEO of STB who reckons that "any publicity is good publicity", you must be rubbing your hands with glee this evening with the two new murders over the weekend. This will no doubt do wonders to your tourist arrival numbers. How great thou art o greatest of the great! How could Seychelles and its tourism industry have survived for so long with you? And how would they ever survive when the sun sets on your parade?
ReplyDeleteBlanmange
Eight murders in 6 months! This is a feat that the world must follow.
ReplyDeleteSeychellois rejoice and celebrate! This proves that there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with our society.
can someone please tell us who are those murder victims? For the benefit of our exiled Seychellois. thanks.
ReplyDeleteThere is something in the manner of Michel and Faure that indicates that they are not totally in control of their supposedly 55% supporters out there. Their reactions (from SBC) were that of two leaders trying very very hard to convince its audience that they have a plan and yes they will deliver, Faure threatening employers with a pay increase next year. They did not exude a confident disposition, as if their shouting and threats were meant to scare us. Instead of creating employment, it is threatening businesses with a wage hike. Let's him them back with the message, bring in the wage hike and we will slap an increase on our services we'll see who will be hurt the most.
ReplyDeleteatleast the the two recent ones..Thanks again
ReplyDeleteWould someone at there please help me: Several times, and again today, James Michel has referred to "en nouvo Sesel". Is this a new concept? What is "nouvo"? Because when I look around I see the same shit but different day. Did I hear him mention linite? Was that a joke? He's "celebrating" liberasyon and calling for linite in the same breath? God please give me strength.
ReplyDeleteOne cannot fail to see that the level of serious crime in the Seychelles is perhaps one of the highest per head in the world.It must be higher than South Africa.
ReplyDeleteI wonder where one can find such detailed information, if it ever exist!! to show that it is indeed 100% valid and true.
What he meant actually was that he was not there in the military coup and he did not bankrupt Seychelles. It was Rene who did that .....
ReplyDeleteFaure honoured Zonm Lib in his reddest shirt this morning. In the afternoon, Michel addressed a crowd revelling in the overthrow of Mancham. What does that tell us about Mancham himself. It was only a few days ago that he was lauding this government. He got his response today. Of course in a few days time, Michel will try and be a statesman at the national day parade and Mancham will be happy again.
ReplyDeleteAs long as Parti Lepep has millions to spend on beer, burgers and votes, they will attract people like those on Freedom Square and get their votes.
ReplyDeleteWhat sort of people don't understand that it is a national shame for IMF to intervene in the economic running of a country after its government has failed ?
ReplyDeleteThe sort that were on Freedom Square.
ReplyDeleteWhat sort of people believe that we were 'liberated' on 5 June 1977 ? The sort who were on Gordon Square.
ReplyDeleteHEY,I believe everyone had heard that PARTI LEPEP are going to take all the seats in the NATIONAL ASSEMBLY very soon A STATEMENT ALREADY PREDICT.What will THE INTERNATIONAL FRIENDS AND ORGANISATION DO, IT WILL BE VERY INTERESTING TO WATCH AND SEE THE FIASCO.PARTI LEPEP HAS PROMISE THE 55 PERCENT So many, many, and many things they going to do I believe they had something more special for LA DIGUE, I once remeber a promise for ANSE ROYALE in one election TRAIN FROM ANSE ROYALE TO VICTORIA.With all PARTI LEPEP in the NATIONAL ASSEMBLY in 2012 MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON SEYHELLES.
ReplyDeleteOnly if there is a boycott. Even if they win all the districts through whatever means, there are proportional seats available. They will need to win 91% to win all proportional seats. They do talk rubbish. With 45% that can't be bought, that is unlikely.
ReplyDeleteMichel's threat to sweep all assembly seats is an attempt to engage the opposition. Since his reelection he's been playing and talking to himself. He risks doing the same thing in the assembly for the next 5 years. Must be a scary and tiring thought, day in and day out talking to yourself and telling yourself how great you are. The opposition should stay out of these elections, the results of which are known in advance. Kile and let James run his show alone.
ReplyDeleteTwo murders in a weekend.Breaks all record.Isn't it a sign that something is wrong somewhere? And please don't give me the crap that this happens all over the world. We are doomed as a nation and unless we take the bull by the horns, soon we're going to have acid rain!
ReplyDeleteJames Michel should be remembered as the Begging President.
ReplyDeleteMichel the Begger.
Sureley, he is playing wise in an attempt to try and force the opposition to play his dirty game.
The issue is not to play his one sided and dirty game unless he changes how the game is played.
where can we go to look up some information on these two murder please?
ReplyDeleteThe tactic by the opposition to boycott the Assembly is paying off,Pp threat to sweep all seats unilaterally and again constitutional norms ,typies that PP is worry and in a desperate state.Pp wants to get the oppostion back to the Assembly by all means including threats in order to legitimize its autocrate regime.The oppostion must stick to the course they have taken "BOYCOTT" until Pp abide by constitutional norms and rule of law.

Today is a day of reflection for duplicitous Mancham.
ReplyDeleteI just could not belive my ears when I heard James Michel said in his speech at Freedom square yesterday that he welcomes everybody to help and make Seychelles a better place for all Seychellois. This is good to hear as I have been hearing him say this over and over again since he won the election. What amazes me is in the same breath he express how Parti Les Pep will conquer all the seats in the forthcoming assembly elections. What does that say about Peparti le Pep, either he wants us to work together or not and start changing things or he wants to run the country under a one party. Make up your mind President Michel.
ReplyDeleteWell what Michel said proves that he knows that he is not work for Seychellois but his foreign friends.Michel seems not to understand that he is President of Seychelles and his jobs and duties is to work for his people and country.However,we must not pay much attention to what Michel is saying,for Michel is saying what he is saying simply beucase he is feeling the pressure on him and each time Pp has pressure its comes up with all kinds of promises with the hope they would calm us down.Pp autocratic system can not change and it is not a regime who disrepect all norms and rule of law for the decades who would bring about reforms.

Michel as autocrate do not want us to work together nor to unite because it will be the end of his regime,he depends of division,fraud,intimidation,repression to survive so do not take a word coming from the mouth of an autocrate for granted.
ReplyDeleteWe must continue with our effort to oust Pp out of power ,this is the best and only solution for our people and country to regain its sovereigna and the dignity of our people back.

James Michel only wants to be seen to be appealing for unity. It works well for overseas purposes. He is still a parochial and partisan politician not a statesman.
ReplyDeleteA criminal who used a Ak47 to divide us has no credibility at all to call for unity.Michel wants legitimacy .He wants legitimacy in order to have International recognition thus in return his autocrate regime can receive financial helps form abroad.But all those crying out for reforms ,unity,are proofs that Michel is under imense pressure and he is afraid that things degenerate into protest that would force him and his cronies out of power in the style of Mubarak,Ben Ali.I have never snce Michel and Pp so concern about refrom ,unity as after the aftermatch of this election and since the oppostion decided to boycott the Assembly.There must be fears among its members ,probably they all have a feel that things would not be the same as in the last three decades ;seychellois are waking up and their days are count.

The only way Michel could win St Louis is if he makes Nathalie the PL candidate AND lets all young men at St Louis have their wicked ways with her during the whole campaign.
ReplyDeleteNathalie had a very long face at the inaugural ceremony. Perhaps she did not vote for hubby.
Michel is cheating on her.She should get leave this coward in order to ptotect her repulation and that of her family.She deserve a better man than a Zombie.After all shehas qualification she does not have to depend on the criminal actives of an old crook.
ReplyDeleteJeanne Dàrc
Guys, I agree, Michel knows we are very angry and is trying to taunt us with the threat that they are going to take all districts. He is very upset with the boycott and snubbing of the election announcement and swearing in ceremony. I just hope that the opposition organises itself and continues to defy them both openly and subtly to show them that we mean business. Wavel as the leader of the majority opposition party needs to maintain this stance as well as engage other political parties including Boulle and others so as to work from a platform of strength to give Michel and Lepep a real challenge. We have the momentum, so let's keep it up. We need to make sure that the new election laws reflects all our concerns as this will be the first step to making sure that elections are free and fair, before we participate in any future elections.
ReplyDeleteA limit on how much can be spent per district in any election and 5 years in jail for breaking the limit. Too many free burgers or free beers will land you in jail.
ReplyDeleteI sincerely believe that we should be all celebrating June 5, 1977. Rene overthrew Mancham on that day, just imagine if Rene did not save us from Manacham where we will all be staying today. He admitted on national TV that he would have given more land away to foreigners if he was president. Rene was smart and saw right through him, Rene is the smartest president Seychellois had.
ReplyDeleteThe task ahead is for all of us to unite to get rid of Michel. At the rate he is giving away our land and citizenship God only can help. We need peaceful protest, civil disobedience, we do not want another coup.
Typical character of an autocrate,if you do not agree with him then he threaten you.The Opposition must stay united and make sure that Pp not only amend the law , the Opposition must also present a list of amendments they expect to take place.We cannot let an autocrate decide alone what change should be done or not,history has shown that if you let an autocrate has all power of decision he is going to screw you as always.
ReplyDeleteHere is some of the amendment i would expect to see among other:
-Independent electoral Commission-"My Personal proposal would be that the chef of the Commission must not be finger pick by the President but first, all members on the Commission should have a system whereby they concduct an internal vote in order that they can themselves choose who they think is best to represent the Commission.Then the best two person would be presented to the President in order that he could choose between the two.It will discourage favouritism by the president.And the chef electoral commission post should also be limited .
-Local Observers
-Law on campaign financing
-list of voters make public at district level just after the local count is done in order that local Observers,parties,and individuals may check their names and so on.
-Media access
etc ..etc and etc..

ReplyDeleteIt's confirmed & all over the International news that Michel has invited Khalifa to take part in the Seychelles Economic Forum being held on Monday June 6 in Seychelles & being organised in cooperation with the International Monetary Fund.
ReplyDeleteBeze, Arabs making important decision in our country & economy!
Albert Rene's coup d'état was motivated by pure political ambitions, not by any noble intentions. If selling the country to rich Arabs was wrong in 1977, why does he find it right today ?
ReplyDeleteI want to give Michel the benefit of the doubt on his call for "unity". I want to hear him announce concrete measures of how he proposes to this. OK, it takes two to tango, but let him make concrete proposals and let the opposition reject them and give reasons (if any)why, apart from wanting to be at state house no matter what.I want to see James michel move from party leader on the campaign trail to statesman and Head of State. Is too much to ask and hope for?
ReplyDeleteWhile the last blogger gives Michel the benefit of the doubt, I want Michel to also call upon the pope to come and remove whatever evil is hitting us. Never in our history - except when Rene was killing oppositions one by one - have we seen so many deaths in this country. Something is really really wrong. Where is Ti Morgan? does he think the police is doing a good job of prevention? All this is sad and scary.

There is absolutely no point calling on Denis Wiehe. Our dear bishop is part of the problem.
ReplyDeleteThe murder rate for 2011 will be very interesting.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pity that we find out too late that Khalifa is attending the Seychelles Economic Forum., if indeed it is true. I for one would have gladly form part of a protest be it a large one or a small one (more like the latter:))wherever it was being held, to make a point......
ReplyDeleteProtest against Khalia? You wold have been alone my friend. Very alone.I'm still waiting to see how much longer Seychellois are going to sit back and take the crap that is being thrown at them. The opposition is in hybernation (not that I blame them entirely) so it'll be up to the people to fight for their right.
ReplyDeleteYou can either lead or follow. If you're doing neither, you should get the hell out of the way. Ramkalawan, SNP and all our distinguished opposition "leaders" should take note. If they are unwilling or unable to oppose, they should publicly say so and let people decide what they need to do.The current situation of sulking is not healthy.

ReplyDelete“On June 5 we broke the chains of enslavement and paved the way for equal chances for all and today we have achieved all we set out to do and more and all this we owe to that historic event back in 1977,” he said.
Baboon Speaker Herminie is calling bye-elections in August if SNP continues to boycott National Assembly.
ReplyDeleteSBC had a pop at Zimbabwe's electoral register -- a lot of people over 100 years old. Pot calls the kettle black comes to mind.
ReplyDeleteFaure says that no "public money" was used to buy the election. Whose money was used then ? He did not say.
ReplyDeleteBye-elections in August in 7 in Anse Etoile, Bel Ombre, Bel Air, St Louis. Mont Fleuri, Beau Vallon and Les Mamelles.
ReplyDeleteSNP will still have 4 proportional seats and still the official opposition. How does Baboon Speaker Herminie plan to get rid of that ?
Then general elections by May 2012. PL will have to wait until then to have all 34 seats, if there is a boycott.
Oh what a mess !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!!
Bryan Julie to replace David Pierre, if SNP returns to National Assembly.
ReplyDeleteLet me help SNP a little on this bye election BS " Dr. "Herminie doctor is threatening with.
ReplyDeleteBye elections take place for elected posts once an MNA resigns in writing to the Speaker- from his seat.
No other exception.
All you have to do is write to Herminie and tell him you are actively Boycotting Assembly, and that does not mean you resign from your seat.
Tell him you still retain your seat and you are best serving the people by a Boycott.
Failing that just tell him to take his One Party State seat and stick it in a TATA BUS where it is needed most.
Now reply to the person that says Gill fill the vaccum.
The Boycott is the vaccum PL Collaborator. The Boyocott is filling the void to expose the One Party State that Seychelles is.
Michel is an Autocrat- Dictator. He is Minister of Defense, State House, Planning, Land Use, Habitat, Tourism.
Left out is Culture, agriculture, admin. Finance, Two of those controlled by Faure, the Communist from KUBA.
This takes Seychelles back into the One Party State, since you PL Collaborators could not accept and respect democratic freedoms and norms in the country to conduct elections fairly.
You stole the elections. Not by just vote buying, but by blocking MSR, blocking Dhanjee, then stealing ID card, making lists for fridges, roofing sheets, trips to Mauritius, and paying for ID cards.
All opposition parties that have Seychelles interest at heart, must hold the BOYCOTT line.If you do, there will be no 5 years for Michel, and he knows it. It will be more like 5 months.
Nick Prea has done a secret meeting with Herminie. He should resign as an politician for crossing the Boycott line. Go plant aubergines, Prea, you are wasting our time if you cannot hold the Boycott Line like a man.
Reminds me of Daniel Belle in DP in the old days, always scheming making deals with SPPF behind everyone's back, looking out for his own career at the expense of the Party .
But in the front lines, all humble, and soft and friends with everyone, until he knifes you in the back to promote himself.

ReplyDeletelol lol
Someone somewhere will crack in the opposition as they do not have what it takes to be a real opposition. Its all about their personnel benefits at threat at the expense of greater and wider prosperity for all.
ReplyDeleteWhat James Michel need to swallow in; is that Seychelles is clearly divided into two parts and as we know very well considering all the people who could have voted rightly, and also if we were to consider overseas Seychellois , they (SPP) would actually represent not more than 45% of Seselwa citizens.
ReplyDeleteHe can only continue to beg and beg to run a country and dream X2 GDP by 2020.
At the last election the opposition polled 45%, despite all the bribes dished out by PL. That remains the case until the opposition takes part in another election, whether it is represented in the national assembly or not.
ReplyDeleteIf the national assembly elections are boycotted, PL will poll more than 55%, as people will be too scared not to go and vote.
That will not change the fact that at the last elections it contested the opposition polled 45% and can therefore legitimately claim to represent 45% of the population.
Correction to my post above.
ReplyDeleteIf there is only 1 candidate, there is no election. Everyone on the electoral register is deemed to have voted for that candidate.
PL will poll 100% of votes on the register, including dead people !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!!
Guys! Guys! Come down from your clouds! James Michel has won the election. I voted for the opposition and I'm gutted that we lost but let's be realistic. Are you guys saying that James michel would not have had any support if he had not bought votes?? Are you saying that he bought each and everyone of the 31,000 or so votes that he got?? Get real guys. The sooner you do, the sooner we shall start reorganising ourselves to face the battles ahead.
ReplyDeleteGill, an MNA stops being a member if they are absent during a session of the Assembly, for a continuous period in excess of NINETY DAYS
ReplyDeleteduring which time the Assembly has been summoned to meet and continues to meet.
For the boycott to be effective, SNP will need to attend a session before the 90 days are up, and then resume the boycott. And so on ... until Michel dissolves the assembly.
Or why not have bye-elections in August ? There will not be any election, unless opportunistic candidates stand.
SNP can still nominate the 4 proportional members (that is based on 2007 general election) to continue the boycott.
What if PL decide not to field candidates, but get so-called independent candidates who will be elected without an election as the opposition ? With 7 of them they can have their own Leader of Opposition.
It is possible 5000 votes have been influenced by money. Danny Faure said no state resources were used to win this election. He was lying. For months, Michel and Faure have been giving away things left, right and centre. They even managed to give away land on a reclaimed island just in time for the election.
ReplyDeleteBoth SNP and PL have got a core vote that does not change. That core vote is less than 50%. It is the floating voters, perhaps 5000-10000 that determine the election.
ReplyDeleteIt is hard to see why floating voters would vote for PL, especially if they could not have a wash before going to the polls. Unless they do not really care.
I see the possibility of vote-buying or "influencing" of voters but I cannot buy the assertion that 5,000 people were bought. We have a lot of morons in our country but 5,000 is far too many. Wavel and SNP needs to take some blame in the way they ran their campaign. If people thought they were credible, they would have taken Michel's money then still voted for Wavel or at least spoil their votes. It comforts us to believe that Michel bought voters. It diverts attention away from our own failings as an opposition party.
ReplyDeleteWhat it shows is that if people take PL money etc they will vote for PL. SNP needs to bear this in mind.
ReplyDelete200 voters per district x 25 = 5000. Does not sound too far-fetched.
ReplyDeleteSorry guys, this buying business still does not wash. Ooops! No water this evening.....Had a quick splash in a plastic pail.200 people per district is a lot of people to buy. you mean each and everyone of these people got paid and lost their intelligence -or the little that they had in the process? I refuse to believe these fairy tales.
ReplyDeleteReply to "Mr. 90 Days":
ReplyDeleteI have never heard so much BS and lame exuses coming from political party leadership!
You say a boycott, to remain effective, the SNP must go back to the National Assembly before 90 days.
What kind of pussy cat response is that?
A BOYCOTT is a BOYCOTT and no one is to CROSS THAT LINE, until a call for a New Constitution and New Electoral Laws, are in placed and PL tells us they will stop gerrymeandering districts, and PL will tell us all how they will stop buying votes, and stop putting Fabrikes on the Voters List.
Everything else is a waste of time.
Going to National Assembly, in a covert, secret meeting with Dr. Herminie by Nicolas Prea is a total joke.
Either you are courageous enough to force the medicine down PL's throat, or you are pussy cat oppositon.
In which case, you should do us a favor and shut your party down, if you do not have what it takes to deal with SPPF.
I know what I am talking about, because I have watched SNP flake off for Six years now, since the last elections in 2006.
Straighten your backs," Mr. 90 Days man from SNP". Seychelles needs a solid thinking opposition with back bone. We do not need a jelly fish opposition!
Michel is terrified to death over this Boycott idea, because it can bring down his government. You are worried about "90 days"?
What kind of a Bozo clown would say such a weak thing?

Guys, the election was lost to PL due to 2 things:
ReplyDelete1) A very good and well funded campaign by PL
2) A crappy non-existing campaign by SNP
A friend of mine, a sworn SNP for years even said that SNP had hardly campaigned and didn't even hold a proper rally. So what to expect?
Yes, voters have been bought in the sense of free re caps, free t-shirts, free beer and similar, but not even I believe that 10000 voters were bribed to vote PL.
The opposition have done a crappy job, as usual, and it is convenient to blame bribes rather than their own failure.
DG
I agree with Christopher that Michel is very worried about the impact of what the boycott could mean for his reputation and image. Remember that Michel's ego unlike Rene thrives on the his delusional thinking that he is a tolerant and magnanimous president. This perception cannot be maintained if the opposition is boycotting the elections outcome and his whole way of doing business. Difficult for him to pretend that all is going well, which is why he is desperately but successfully courting Mancham. What is for certain this is not making him win any points here because he has underestimated how despised Mancham has become both within his camp and the opposition.
ReplyDeleteYes I do think that it is possible to buy 200 votes in each district, whether it be a fridge, a car, a piece of land etc. and I do think that there are enough gullible and unscrupulous voters out there who could not care about taking these bribes, as we have seen.
I do not think that we should be licking our wounds for too long, for we must remain very comforted by the fact that we are still a very strong force at 45% and Lepep must know that we cannot be beaten. The moral responsibility however is with the SNP (being the majority party) to form a coherent platform with other competent forces to take on the system. The power and impact of this platform, well as they say the sky is the limit. When this happens I will identify myself and come out and give my full support......
You all miss the point, THE VOTERS REGISTER is the key, and LE PEP control it. How may non-bonafide voters are on it, enough to swing an election?
ReplyDeleteWould not quite say missed the point as this has been an ongoing isse by the participating candidates throughout the election process which the Commissioner of Elections refused to address, leading us to believe even more strongly that fraud was taking place via the Electoral Register. This will certainly need to be one of the first issues to be tackled.
ReplyDeleteGill, this is what you wrote yesterday.
ReplyDelete"Bye elections take place for elected posts once an MNA resigns in writing to the Speaker- from his seat.
No other exception."
I pointed out to you that an MNA is deemed to have resigned after 90 days absence unless the speaker gives permission. It is in the constitution which you were supposed to have written. Your writing on this blog is not doing you a favour -- it shows you are bloody ignorant. The other day you were talking about going to an international court for your human rights !
God help us with a leader like Gill. No courage to come out from behind his blog and no brains.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.malango-actualite.fr/article/aux_seychelles_wavel_ramkalawan_jette_l_eponge-7650.htm
ReplyDeleteThat was a local journalist out to create trouble. The idea of St Ange taking over is laughable. Karl St Ange betrayed the hopes of our nation when he propped up Albert Rene. Alain St Ange became a turncoat and propped up Michel. It is quite clear where their real loyalties lie. Never again.
So where does all this leave us? I retain the following main idea: Boycott at all cost. It's clear that come 31 august, if SNP does not return to the assembly,their resignation would be assumed and bi-elections held. Can we live with this? As it looks like SNP would have boycotted the forthcoming national assembly election anyway,it does not change anything.Let Michel have the assembly all to himself, let him propose and vote his own lawas, them them discuss among themselves how great they are. If the world then sees this as a beacon of stability and democracry, then the world would have gone nuts.
ReplyDeleteAnd when people are fed up with the circus, they'll come out in the streets to exercise their freedom of expression.
ReplyDeleteA boycott looks better if you have 11 seats in the National Assembly. Attend every 3 months to stop bye-elections, until general elections. It is a tactic to make the boycott more effective, and keep it alive. Keep the suspense going a bit. This is a risk-free strategy for SNP, apart from MNAs losing R1000 per sitting.
ReplyDeleteBoycotting the general elections carries a lot of risks. PL will have 100% of the national assembly, without a single vote being cast. Life may go on, as if nothing has happened. It does not look like there will be an extra parliamentary campaign to put pressure on PL. We will be relying on Michel's hurt ego, like a previous blogger says. Michel will not be able to claim he is the president of a democratic country and that he tolerates opposition. He will come under international pressure (UK, USA, France) from countries that accept that Seychelles is taking too long to convert from one-party state to a democratic country. If he does not mind this, it is difficult to see what we will get from a boycott.
For a boycott to be effective, it must be accompanied by extra-parliamentary campaign by an extra-parliamentary opposition.
If SNP is planning to retire into the political wilderness, bye-elections after August or whenever are irrelevant.
This was a clear cut election win for SPPF/PL. Simply the policies laid out by the oppisition could not match that of the government... so cut out the crap and lets move forward together.
ReplyDeleteLike i have said murder,criminels in Seychelles are brought by PP and teach by PP peoples some youths i know on Praslin.Michel dont care for seselwa because his mind is about begging for more million and make seelwa to continue leave on debt,IMF have just give Seychelles another 5 million.Can some one tell me,how long can we leave on debt and continue to beg?Seychelles have also a big problem the problem women are working more than men on the island,yes or no?just check the statistic.
ReplyDeletePL will have a clear win when it stops cheating and sets SBC free of its maligned influence.
ReplyDeleteTo Cut The Crap...Yes, let's cut the crap...Simply put Michel won the elections by fraudulent means. He knows it, Danny Faure knows it and we all know it. That is why they are feeling extremely uncomfortable with the boycott. So let the boycott continue!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe 5 June rally on Freedom Square resembled a wildlife programme on SBC -- a sort of "wildlife in Seychelles" programme. The dynosaurs arrived late afternoon and they hissed, grunted, bellowed and then went home.
ReplyDeleteReally, they should call the place Jurassic Park on 5 June.
I am not sure if there is anything worth debating. As long as the playing field is not level there will never be free and fair elections in Seychelles.
ReplyDeleteWhatever be the motives of Ramkalawan/SNP for participaing in the elections of 2007 and 2011 (it was clear since 2006 that the opposition is unlikely to win an election), they should now stick to their guns and boycott the Nat Assembly and all future elections. PL/Michel is in any case running the country as defacto dictatorship, let this status be formalised.
Bernard Sullivan the SNP activist has been arrested for soi disant inciting violence on facebook. This says it all.
It cannot be any more simple than that. Close shop and do some other business, the 44% who voted opposition will survive, let us see how 55% does. They will have to take to the streets themselves.
Vox
SNP should not attend the National Assembly at all cost. They should continue with the boycott until SPPF calls in a by-election which is by my understaning only occurs when an MNA officially resign or passed away. The boycott is very effective so far & SPPF/PL is very worried. Let them field their paid independent candidates in the by elections so that they can hold all the seats. Michel has said in public that he will win all seats in the next MNA elections away. We are already in the parti inik & let it be till it reaches breaking point. I was very surprised to learned that Prea said that they will return to the assembly if Bernard George motion appears on the order paper. Very strange indeed! They have already made the decision right after the presidential elections to boycott but now decided that they might go back. Are these guys really serious? Now we will see the true colours of the opposition, if they are serious in creating changes in seychelles or if they are only there for cashing in & self-preservation!
ReplyDeleteGuy boycott men boycott!!
ReplyDeleteThe motion is calling for an ELECTORAL REFORM COMMISSION (see nation today) and a cross-party electoral reform commission is probably the best forum to discuss and agree electoral reforms. It makes sense for SNP to attend to debate the motion.
ReplyDeleteIf PL rejects the motion, the boycott continues until acceptable electoral reforms are implemented. If a credible commission is set up and the timescale for its work is acceptable, it makes sense to suspend the boycott while the commission does its work.
Participation in the National Assembly elections will depend on what electoral reforms are implemented and how effective they are in practice.
Without a commission, SNP will be reacting to whatever reforms PL decides to implement.
SNP cannot boycott indefinitely because of what happened in the presidential elections. The boycott is intended to achieve electoral and broadcasting reforms. The boycott must be accompanied by clear demands for specific reforms. If these demands are met, there is no need for a boycott.
I was expecting Herminie to be in celebratory mood on SBC about the boycott. Didn't he say during the campaign he wanted to eliminate opposition ? It did not appear like he was in celebratory mood on SBC, with the prospect of winning all votes on the register and 100% MNAs.
ReplyDeleteThe assembly chamber is very big. Even with a full house, there are spare seats between PL and SNP. Without SNP, the chamber looks half empty. It looks eerie. No wonder the speaker and PL MNAs were looking down in the mouth yesterday in the assembly. The half-empty chamber must be doing their nuts in.
SNP is going to the National Assembly on Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteApparently, Bernard Sullivan has been remanded in custody for "menas kont prezidan larepiblik" on Facebook. The police is investigating. How long do they need to read Facebook ? James Michel is now behaving like Robert Mugabe, although I suspect traitor Morgan is doing the dirty work. They clearly want to censor Facebook and internet forums.
ReplyDeleteIf you say that James Michel is a stain that must be removed, you will be locked up ? James Michel cannot tolerate criticisms.
ReplyDeleteUsing remand in custody as a punishment is an abuse of human rights.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't James Michel think he is a stain ? He is full of pretensions.

Brasssel Adeline made an ass of the judiciary today. We saw a former Parti Lepep activist and MNA (no doubt still supporting Parti Lepep) who has been made a tinpot magistrate, sitting in judgement over an SNP activist and remands him in custody for no good reason. The independent judiciary does not exist. No wonder the En Nouvo Sesel regime is nervous at the slightest indication of popular anger.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry guys, let's get a life and move on. There may not be any hope with parti lepep but does anyone see anything better with SNP? It's the inconsistencies and mixed messages - NOT VOTER BUYING that will keep SNP in opposition forever until they get their act together. Electoral reform or not, they won't get my vote ever again. Nor will lepep. Let me get on with my life.
ReplyDeleteIt is jungle justice when you appear before a magistrate with an axe to grind against you and jails you for no good reason. It makes you a political prisoner. This comes on the back of a bought election. This will make a lot of people very very angry. Justice is falling well short of standards expected in a decent country.
ReplyDeleteThis election may well be Michel's second coup d'etat, complete with the killing of political opponents and imprisonment without trial.
I have not read any reference to shooting on Bernard Sullivan's Facebook. His profile is public and I have seen the reference to stains.
ReplyDeleteIt is not a crime to say Michel should be shot, especially for his high treason crime which he admits. This is expressing an opinion. I am not aware that there is a specific law which says that it is a crime to say Michel should be shot.
Once upon a time Philippe Boulle fought against the "right to remand" by the Court. What happened? He was silently scorned by many people because in their minds he was trying to protect criminals. He was very alone in this crusade, being the human rights advocate that he is he still carried on even recently in the court case of "right for all seychellois to vote irrespective of residence" he still advocated forcefully for remand prisoners to have a right to vote too. Little did some of you realise that sa "ki kapab ariv lo li i kapab ariv lo ou", the whole essence of Philippe's arguments. Hopefully Bernard's case will wake some of you up!!!
ReplyDeleteOh yes!! And remember when Boulle said at the last elections, that what Seychelles needs first and foremost right now, before anyone of us could go forward with any big projects and plans, is total reform of the judiciary, police, etc. as these are the very pillars of a democratic society for without these reforms we CANNOT move forward, didn't we laugh at him. Instead what did SNP do they went on a last minute campaign to call a vote for Boulle and Volcere a vote for Michel. Some of you may have seen him as having a big ego, but the man had a fucking vision, more than a few of your heads put together, so now go and get a life for yourselves and accept the shit that Lepep is pouring down on you.
ReplyDeleteThe day before yesterday, they denied MSR registration for "beliefs" because they were dangerous to PL existence.
ReplyDeleteYesterday, they denied Viral Dhanjee registration because he was contesting a Presidential Election, and he was not "Seychellois" enough according to PL to be in the opposition. This would take votes from PL.
Today they arrest Bernard Sullivan for a Virtaul statement on Facebook . This is ridiculous and a show of total lack of respect for the Right to Freedom of Speech and Freedom on Expression.
In order to incite, the words, must be immediate in time to an action. It cannot be virtual or remote from.
Orders were clearly given by Michel, and the case shows two things: 1. PL will trample on all Seychellois rights, 2. Michel is an Autocratic dictator, that stole an election, hence does not have the credentials of a democractically elected leader.
With that, he cannot tolerate even a facebook comment.
Pathetic!
What is more pathetic is the SNP going back to the National Assembly, to give credibility to the SPPF PL SHAM ELECTIONS.
Seychelles is starting to spin, out of perspective, we have lost our way as a people and with that, we are sacrifcing FREEDOM on the mantle of monthly stipends for MNA's in the Opposition.
I said SNP would not hold the BOYCOTT Line.They have just sent out confusing signals to buy time.
Now, they should close down. They serve no valid purpose as an opposition. They only give credibility to Communists to keep on butchering our rights.
Bernard needs to find another Party.

Arresting and detaining someone for writing on Facebook is something that Hosni Mubarak would have done or Robert Mugabe would do. Michel is in good company.
ReplyDeleteYou are using this case to continue your fight against SNP.
ReplyDeleteThe way i have seen things going those past few years and lately, i do not pin much hope on SNP getting anything with participating in Nat Assembly. Michel had already said in its first Cabinet Meeting that he has ordered the Att General to write bills which would allow for an Electoral Commission, change the Broadcasting Laws. Even if the Nat Assembly were to debate on those matters, it would still go back to Att General to draft the laws. SNP demands are likely to be accepted but are they going to change things materially? An electoral commisssion is likely to be made of Gappy, Morin, that lady (4got her name) or some other no so independent individuals. SNP exccuse (put forward by B Georges) is that PL bought 5000 votes on the date prior to elections. How is any of the SNP demands going to address that? I doubt if a Commision will stop that.
ReplyDeleteMy opinion is that SNP demands are not properly articulated and does not address all the issues peventing a level playing field. They do not address the issue of partial police force and partial judiciary. The latter is the cornerstone of the PL regime. Reference made to the Dhnajee cases.
For a boycott to be effective, we need to boycott all instituions of the state!
Vox
I don't agree with the blogger that says that SNP should return to the National Assembly to discuss the setting up of the Electoral Commission if the motion is accepted. The motion will probably be accepted because it was Michel who announced it just after the elections. What will happen however is that Lepep will not be giving the opposition an easy ride on this issue and if the opposition does not agree with what Lepep comes up with, to restart the boycott would have lost the effect. We have the momentum, we should stick to it. We don't need them. I agree with Vox's last two comments. Let them have their cake and eat it too. Our 45% will remain. We will need however to keep our supporters fully aware of what we are doing and why we are doing each step of the way so that any negative publicity by Lepep is countered.
ReplyDeleteI also partly share Christopher's comments, let's not be sending out mix signals, we still have the upper hand guys, hold on to it...
This is what Tendai Biti says on boycotts:
ReplyDeleteFrom Guardian (UK)
But Biti, who is in effect the number two of the prime minister, Morgan Tsvangirai, insisted the MDC would not boycott an election if it is called this year.
"I think boycott politics doesn't work," he said. "We will participate without a doubt but it will not be ideal. After all, the majority of Zimbabweans want real change. We can't frustrate the majority of people.
The kangaroo court of Seychelles has delivered yet another Kangaroo verdict.It is an apparent fact that their verdict was political motivated and racist -oriented.What the judge did is another unambiguous proof that there is no impartial judiciary system in this country.Obviously that implies that there is no justice at all.
ReplyDeleteBy arresting Sulivan Pp is again demonstrating that it does not have any respect of human rughts,freedom of assembly etc.
jeanne D'arc
Oh please!!!! We're boycotting, then we're not. Michel has already announced review of electoral laws. When he's planning for this to happen is not clear. Now SNP wants a review commission or whatever crap - I suppose to discuss the very same things that Michel is proposing to do? What they hoping to achieve? The commission will draft the law for the AG's office? I'm sorry guys, I'm not intelligent enough to understand this. Please enlighten me.

I beg to disagree Zimbabwe and Seychelles are two totally different scenarios however I will concede that a boycott to be effective it has to be properly defined and with a clear vision of its objectives and I doubt as to whether the SNP has the capacity to define these clearly. I am not attempting to deride the leadership of SNP but Wavel's leadership vision is not inspiring, neither does the like of Nicolas Prea, Gervais Henrie, Roger Mancienne, Jean-Francois Ferrari as nice, devoted and sincere activists as they may be. So we may be back to square one eventually, and in time with the mixed signals that will be sent out, I wonder whether the frustrated majority who want real change will be forgiving. Time will tell...
ReplyDeleteDo not confuse an Electoral REFORM Commission which will look at all reforms for a level playing field and an Electoral Commission which will replace Gappy with 6 or whatever people.
ReplyDeleteSome people want a boycott because it is exciting and they want to see some action.
ReplyDeleteA boycott has advantages and disadvantages. Commentators can afford to look at one side only. The leadership must weigh up the advantages and disadvantages.
Let us not dismiss out of hand the experience of other opposition parties with boycotts.
Many people want to do different things, sometimes contradictory. We need to have faith in the leadership. If they decide to go to the National Assembly on Tuesday for however long, they should know that they are speaking for all of us. PL should know that we stand solidly behind our leaders.
Reply to SNP Apologist-
ReplyDeleteThere you go again, everytime we hold you to your word, that comes from your God given mouth, when you are breaking it,you blame me and people like me,for putting the light in your dark little room to expose your teeth of deception.
Let's take this step by step.
Question 1. : Who called for a BOYCOTT of Presidential Elections, because they were rigged (Voters List) and a SHAM because not all parties were allowed to participate? ( On SBC)
Answer 1.: MSR and Christopher Gill.
Question 2. : Who ignored the call?
Answer2. : SNP and Ramkalawan.( on voting day you were filmed saying everything is just fine)
Question 3. : Who called for a united opposition?
Answer 3. : Christopher Gill ( For 3 years since you broke the Alliance).
Question 4. : Who divided the opposition and lost an election, even after sending letters out to tell voters not to vote for Mr. Boulle and Mr. Volcere?
Answer 4. : SNP and Ramkalawan(No one else would stoop so low, like a dog).
In spite of all this mess,
Question 5. : Who called for a BOYCOTT of Presidential Elections results and vowed not to go back to the National Assembly, on SBC, "until electoral reforms were in place, and even had the nerve to get Boulle and Volcere on boards, after calling a vote for these men, a vote for Michel?"
Answer 5 : SNP and Ramkalawan!
Now after all that mess you created,
Question 6. : Who breaks a BOYCOTT and decides they will go back to the National Assembly, now, while Bernard Sullivan sits in a jail because they will lose a little salary pack?
Answer 7. : SNP and Ramkalawan.
Now SNP Apologist, what exactly, do you want me to say when you consider the collective, amount of TRUTH placed before you?
Remember, the PL already came for me twice. You stayed silent.
Remember, the PL came for Dhanjee, you stayed silent.
Now, they come for Bernard Sullivan, you make a little noise, but you still stay on your path to break your word to the People of Seychelles, to save us from tyranny?
When they come for the rest of the opposition, under their autocratic rule, which they will, will you stay silent, and debate in Herminie's chambers, the merits of motions as usual, then go home without doing anything in real terms to improve our chaos?
The most PATHETIC bunch of hypocrites, I have ever known. I am proud to say, I BOYCOTTED the whole elections from day one and supported those who try to null and void the results.I salute the opposition candidates who were brave enough adngentleman enough, not to spit in the center of your eye balls when you said a vote for Boulle or Volcere, is a vote for Michel.
Right now, it is looking like a vote for RAMKALAWAN was the real vote for Michel.
If you cannot hold the BOYCOTT resign. If your hypocrite party cannot hold the BOYCOTT, close down or find a leader that will handle a beast like a beast, and a baby like a baby.
You do not handle a beast like a newborn.

ReplyDeleteRAM has always carried a mixed bag of accolade ,we will see what is his strategy he who has a history of being inconsitent in his actions.
ReplyDeletejeanne D'Arc
Under Pp we have justice of the jungle ,only change of government and the establishment of real democracy will help us fix our problem and have effective institutions.
ReplyDeleteJeanne Dârc
Gill, you called for a boycott because your party was not registered and you were not standing as a candidate. You said at the time that if your party were registered you would stand.
ReplyDeleteI will stop here for you to reflect on the above paragraph and the real and only reason why you called for a boycott.
After reading the words of the SNP apologist above and I have no doubt that it comes from the leadership, I have this to say - I never thought the day would come soon when in the words of en lexpresyon kreol, "mon pou manz mon kaka" and say that I agree with most of Christopher's comments below. And this is not a Christopher apologist faking this comment I can assure you. If the SNP does go to the National Assembly on Tuesday I will not forgive them and they will be just that, cowards.
ReplyDeleteI mean Christopher's comments above!!
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with Chris's creed of seselwa rasin & seselwa fabrike, nor do I endorse what I perceive to be against Ramkalawan no matter what. But I TOTALLY agree with him on this one. This boycott one day and not boycotting the following day puts into question the opposition's credibility, in particular its leader's. And until the SNP leadership comes out and clearly explains to us what the hell all this is about, many of us will remain confused, disappointed and araze.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteHas SNP consulted with the other parties/candidates before making this move, if its true or maybe they don't think they need to!!
ReplyDeleteTo the idiot that wrote "Gill, you called for a boycott because your party was not registered and you were not standing as a candidate. You said at the time that if your party were registered you would stand."
ReplyDeleteAs the political affairs officer for MSR i have to let you know that Gill said to boycott when we were denied registration because we were denied access to the voters list, right to educate people through clean political views and the right to say unity to all opposition parties as a fully bonafide one!!
What is wrong in there?? Well you need to do one thing and one thing only read all the comments of christopher gill predating the registration of MSR and prior to the elections, it hurts dealing with people that are often right does it not especially when you failed the people of seychelles for ego and pride and still is failling!!
Boycott goes on with or without SNP Boulle was there and so was Volcere Guys boycott on and we are doing same seychellois needs liberty real democracy and unity of all opposition parties.
SNP candidates have crossed the floor already and sold hope to PL we are restoring truth and accountability under one voice that is we want justice and a level playing field Bernard needs freedom just as Royston Meriton has his when he took the money and ran off.
Wish I had given Boulle my vote I would feel happier today.
ReplyDeleteBoycott it is in whatever way I can.
I am not looking for action, I am looking for hope, to believe, to trust and sadly SNP has disappointed me.
From a Free Spirit!!
Se ma fot se ma fot se ma tre grann fot. SNP returns to the assembly loses my vote now and forever. The people will be proved right for not voting for Ramka. Today we would be swimming in kaka arab. This is a joke of an opposition.
ReplyDeleteA facebook book "Free Bernard Sullivan" can always be started, that is providing he didn't threaten to kill The President. Democracy or not, you cannot make such threats and expect to get away with it.
ReplyDeleteSNP drank delo kaka!
ReplyDeleteNow it is affecting them with E. Coli to the brain cells.
They are going for the salary settlement back in the Assembly.
God Save Us.
@Brigitte - Agree with you totally there. Still trying to determine what Bernard is alledged to have said.
ReplyDeleteThere is a comment on FB where Meriside Dialoo alledges he threatened to shoot the president or words to that effect. To the best of my information from reading his open wall on FB I have not come across such statement.
I also agree that democracy or not it is wrong to make such statements against any individual whether it is on FB or elsewhere irrespective whether it be against the president or another person.
Opponent jailed for Facebook comment
ReplyDeletePresident James Michel is using the court to punish people who opposed him.
Bernard Sullivan, a supporter of the SNP, has been confined to a police jail for nine days on a court order based on a flimsy and unjustifiable accusation.
The police prosecution requested before the Victoria Magistrate’s Court that Sullivan be remanded in custody because of a comment he posted on Facebook on March 28, 2011. The police said the comment was a threat on the life of the President but could not justify why they had not taken any action on it until June 6.
Sullivan’s comment referred to the role of James Michel in the coup d’etat of 1977 and included an opinion that he should be brought to justice for it, but did not make any direct threat.
The police request stated that Sullivan’s incarceration was necessary for them to conduct investigations and to prevent him from interfering with evidence.
Sullivan’s lawyer, Bernard Georges, argued that the request was unjustified because the Facebook page had been copied and was available on the internet outside of Sullivan’s control. There was no other evidence that Sullivan could interfere with, he said, and the police had had over five weeks to take any action.
Georges asked the Court to note that the custody order would be only a means to punish Sullivan pre-emptively, because no charge would be brought or, if brought, would never justify conviction.
Magistrate Brassel Adeline, a former official of Mr. Michel’s ruling ‘Parti Lepep’, ordered remand of nine days in police custody.
http://www.snpseychelles.sc/
The police is still trying to find out what Bernard Sullivan has done wrong. He spends the time in jail while they do.
ReplyDeleteIf magistrates behave like Brassel Adeline does, it is no wonder that criminals are roaming the country freely and crime waves after crime waves hit the country. There were 3 murders on the eve of 5 June celebrations, just like in 1977.
ReplyDeleteJean Paul Isaac, I am the idiot who wrote the comment and I am pleased to see that you agree with me that Gill decided to boycott the election after MSR was denied registration. Until then, we are led to believe that he was all set to stand as a candidate.
ReplyDeleteI just want Gill to remember this whenever he makes an argument why the elections should have been boycotted. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. But it is foresight that we need right now, to work out where the boycott will lead us.
WHEN PP DON'T GIVE THE PLAYING FIELD.WHAT YOU DO HAS A OPPOSSITION LEADER?
ReplyDeleteYOU RALLY YOUR SUPPORTERS ON THE STREET.
RAM AND HIS SUPPOTERS DID NOT SHOW ANY SIGNE OF THAT FOR THEM TO FIGHT FOR THEIR RIGHT.AFRAID SESELWA!TO TAKE ANOTHER BETTING AND FIGHT FOR FREEDOM.
IF I CAN RECRUIT 100 MEN LIKE BERNARD SUILLIVAN TO FIGHT FOR FREEDOM WILL BE A PLEASURE.
Where it will lead you or your pockets??? Seselwa ase kouyon!!
ReplyDeleteThe problem for a nervous James Michel is this. 25,000 voted for the opposition. Few of those are known. The rest are like voiceless, faceless, silent assassins who hate his guts. Despite an army of PL election monitors at road checkpoints offering money, they silently marched to the polling stations to vote for the opposition.
ReplyDeleteBOYCOTT MEAN TO PUT PREASURE ON THOSE DICTATORS AND CORRUPT POLIICIANS WE HAVE IN SEYCHELLES.
ReplyDeleteBOYCOTT,BOYCOTT.
Don't get me wrong. I am all for a boycott to shake up James Michel. I like the excitement as much as the next man. But I also want to know where it will lead us to in a year's time. Boycotts can come in different shapes and sizes -- total boycott, selective boycott etc. Which one will give us the results that we want ?
ReplyDeleteSNP going back to the National Assembly next week.....hmmmmm. False move & sadly, that will be the demise of SNP mark my word. SNP by now should know that opposition supporters are not like SPPF/PL supporters. If they don't like or agree with what the party is doing they will move on & find another party that will support their cause. A party that stands their ground & mean business. Most oposition supporters asked for boycott unitl completely reforms occured in the election laws, judiciary, media, constitution etc..& they ready to go back to the one party system again if needs be. The time is now. But SNP is doing the contrary. This is a betrayal to the highest degree. DP can attest to that! That will be the end of SNP for sure!
ReplyDelete"Jean Paul Isaac, I am the idiot who wrote the comment." Anonymous
ReplyDeleteWhat's the point of that?
To Anonymous before Brigitte...
ReplyDeleteIntelligent comment and thank you for that because I share it too. I voted for SNP over the other candidates not because of Wavel although he is a nice enough guy, but because I wanted to give the opposition a chance to win the first time round and I believe that this may have been the feeling of many of those who support SNP but they must not take us for the likes of Lepep supporters. We may never cross the floor to vote for Lepep but if they let us down this time they are in for a big shock. The fact that we chose to stay opposition out of principles and scruples, does not mean we are to be taken for granted.
Brigitte, it was sarcasm for Jean Paul Isaac. We don't see him much these days.
ReplyDeleteJust pointing out the anonymous business, unless he knows you already and you're all the anonymous' on this site, How can you say it was me but sign as anonymous?
ReplyDeleteYou get me?
To total or partial boycott blogger
ReplyDeleteTotal boycott I would say. I gave my vote to SNP with the belief that they could run a government. I expect them to be able to put together a platform (in consultation with the other boycott partners if necessary) to put forward the best ways to boycott the system.
Otherwise they should not have called for the boycott, accepted the outcome and carried on with business like usual.
If I cannot expect that much from them then I will come to the conclusion that they would not have been able to run a government.
I'm searching in vain here for the quote - which the Nation should have quoted - that got Bernard Sullivan arrested??
ReplyDeleteReply to "Idiot"-
ReplyDeleteThe foresight you are begging for has been provided by me for Six years, every week, of each month, accurately and with great precision.
Where have you been?
The the BOYCOTT must remain in place and all parties, must remain in place supporting the BOYCOTT.
No political party or individual must cross the BOYCOTT line until all reforms are in place as per the RAMKALAWAN DECLARATION POST MORTEM on the PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS.
This includes SNP. If they cross the Boyocott line and go back to the National Assembly, we will reasonably conclude, that they are a sell out party, and all opposition voters must abandon the SNP once and for all.
There is already a load of evidence that shows SNP is a sell out party!
I will follow this Boycott. MSR will.
New Party bieng registered SFP has indicated to me they will follow the BOYCOTT unless they change their position and field candidates if circumstance warrant.
So if you are looking for foresight and you do not have it, you must be blind, or an "idiot", as you refer to yourself.
SFP does not accept "idiots" as party members.
SFP will consider your request to support SFP as an "idiot". But you must follow certain procedures.Ex: endorsement of a legal guardian.

Finally got to check Mr Sullivan's FB wall and there is no quote from the 28th of March.
ReplyDeleteFood for taught!!
ReplyDeleteWhy did MSR want access to the voters list and was denied so??
Well answer simply prove that from the list there were loads of people inserted on which are fraudulent, don't tell me you who claim to have read the MSR creed so much have failed to spot this part.
Another thing is why was gill objecting to some people getting citizenship in the papers with sufficient investigations??
Well because gill was making the playing field level for no loops which SNP and the rest hang there boxers right into.
Reality is reality after all and we all know that Christopher Gill and MSR was going and still are the dynamite of seychelles and this is why seychelles freedom party picked him to lead rather than any of the three amigo's who took a boycott when they had already tasted poison.

A friendly joke: Four wise guys were invited to a known as “Ti Michel’s House”, upon their arrival there they were offered a glass of whiskey which the host poured himself. Suddenly there was a lot of noise and the Fourth Gentleman was tossed out of the house with an explanation.
ReplyDeleteSo without a care in the world the three remaining Gentleman went ahead to have their drink, the biggest a preacher like said “Am the one in these three with most power so I should have a full glass don’t you think?? So agreeing with him “Ti Michel” gave him his full doze.
The minute he got his glass he gulped it up and down the hatch; just minutes of this he drop down like a sack of potatoes. The curious two incognitos styled remaining looked at him on the floor and stared at each other and said “could it be”!! So into the throat with both glasses they went. Same minute they turned at each other only to say yes it is “poison”!!
Both idiot also came right onto the floor inside “Ti Michel’s” house.
While all this was going on the fourth gentleman that was tossed out, had made it to the nearest police station whereby he issued a complaint that he had seen “Ti Michel” pour a substance like powder into the glasses and when he queried about he was tossed out. The officers took a direct interest and rushed off in their “bokbok” right up to “Ti Michel’s” home, only to find the three men lying on his carpet. Quickly reacting they called the ambulance which fast and furiously made it on time to pump the poison off these three guys chest.
A few days after their release from the central hospital, they reported to the police station. The officer in charge explained to them that they have ti Michel under custody until they can get there statements to put with the forth gentleman’s one to prosecute him. As funny as it may sound all three looked at each other and said “No need officer, because the next time we will go to his house we will only drink wine!!
