WHY 2006 GENERAL ELECTIONS AFTER ALL? NCP,IEC,VOTERS IN THE DIASPORA.

OPTV has no room in its book that can even entertain thinking of going to
the polls with a mad man.Now that our so-called general elections are fast
approaching we have started seeing more madness, shamelessness, and
lies.Infact OPTV blames the politicans who are thinking of seeing Yahya as
someone who should be challenged through the ballot box! OPTV will give
evidence to justify the latter.Please read... Yahya Jammeh will never leave
the Gambia through elections period.Every member of Yahya's immediate
circle especially his so-called state guard are ready to massacre any
opposition member who poses a threat to Yahya.We all know that Yahya has
given clear cut orders that;even if UDP was to win he would stay in the
state house and massacre them if they want to come and take over. Musa
Jammeh has been singing that song from 1996 to now!!!!!!!

These are hard facts and Gambians will learn their lesson under Yahya.What
opposition members should do is to lobby,get the Washington times,Newyork
Times, Washington Post,The London daily,Paris Figaro etc etc and then
prepare a way out for Yahya to be exposed.There is also the 60 degress TV
program, it will do exactly as was done on Equatorial Guinea's
dictator!!!!!!!! There are chances all over the world now to get rid off
people like Yahya.This cannot be done when Gambians are stabbing on each
others backs and then everyone is running on his or her own lane!!!!!!!! We
have to cry together or go to court together against one bandit called
Yahya Jammeh.
The media has already started pressurising Yahya and OPTV will go all out
in exposing Yahya as an arms dealer,a tribalist,a blood diamond dealer
instead of a party leader.
Yahya is no democrat so why waste one's time talking politics with a
terrorist and a senseless killer? Terrorists like Yahya can only understand
cages and chains.Trying to wash Yahya is exactly like trying to tell people
that Carlos Complex,Foday Sanko,Charles Taylor and Ted Bundy are kind
people?
How can someone make us believe that!!! sleeping in a public toilet is
better than doing so in a room at a five start hotel? Ofcourse that is
rubbish and madness!

THE IEC -OPTV calls this body IRRATIONAL EXPLOITATIVE CRONIES,they are
certainly irrational.Ask yourselves why GJ Roberts in 1996 and then why him
in 2006 again? This six to the power two equals to dooms day for Gambia.As
simple as that.
Tilewa Johnson's case speaks volumes.The Bishop is a man of God,because
despite Yahya's madness and rude behaviuor towards him,the good Reverend
went and prayed at the stadium when mad Yahya was going through his stolen
victory.Tilewa Johnson loves his land and we honour  him for that. That is
why Yahya removed him from the IEC and then brought his old teacher back.
How can a contender appoint the one who decides if the elections are free
and fair? In the first place an employee is not independent because he or
she owes allegiance to the employer in one way or the other! Tilewa  told
Yahya the truth that hurts and then prayed for peace.Actaully we all know
that! Yahya is animist. Immediately after the Imam and the Bishop prayed he
went ahead and asked for the traditional Jola animist and witch doctor to
place that stinking so-called mansa red hat on his mad head.Right there at
the Independence stadium.Camon Gambians,OPTV is not fabricating this story
the ! video is there and most of us have it in our libraries at home.Yahya
is tribalist.
He will reap those fruits very soon.
Remember his lengthy speech when he was reading his ironical sermon
announcing the term limit, that was to deternine how long the then APFPRC
was to stay in power.Here we all saw Yahya fall down in the open.You know
why? It was deliberate because  he did so based on what  a Jola marabout he
believes in told him.According to Yahya's own close relatives,falling down
(when trying to get a way to rule) means that person has been destined to
be in that position.Ask anyone who knows the traditions of our folks in
Foni.I am exposed to Jola friends who know this fact and those Jolas do not
like Yahya at all!!!!!! He exploits every tribe for personal gain,starting
from his own.Yahya's mandness should  not! be used to sow any seeds of
discord between other tribes and jolas.Shynle Nyassi is more Jola than
Yahya and we all know what role Nyassi has played in helping restoring a so
call democracy under Yahya.
When people accuse Yahya of being tribalist means he uses it for personal
gain and he is a chronic, fake, liar!!!!!!!!!!
The IEC is yet to tell Gambians in the diaspora anything concrete when it
comes to voting abroad and never will they say so.They are Irrational,they
exploit voters and are nothing more than cronies.Look at these shameless
people saying that they will recommend and then leave the gvt decide? Look
at the chieftiancy issue,look at the demarcation,look at the way Yahya is
politicising the so-called OPERATION NO COMPROMISE,the wretched movie.
Well.well,well...I was laughing when I read what the APRC said to NCP!
Yahya should know that Shiriff also knows the game,we will see.Anyway NCP
could not have escaped this because they were very selfish in the beginning
so let them drink the hot tar now.APRC rejecting another party? Wonders
never sieze!
I could not stop laughing because this really proves that Yahya is
mad.Sometimes people can be opportinists but Yahya's is infantile and
really really laughable.Where is the word shame in Yahya's blood?!!!
There are two reasons why he is trying to show his latest shamelessness!!!
He knows that the constitution has been amended and there will be no second
round in the forth coming so-called presidential elections,right?!!! Ok
there and then Yahya has been advised by his cronies that the more
parties,the more splitting of camps,the better for him.Wait and see the IEC
will encourage probably more than ten political parties in small Gambia now
onwards.In a country where we have nothing more than 600,000 registered
voters!!!Yahya will sponsor smaller parties and then encorage them to help
split the voter turn out so that he could emerge as the highest during the
first round. Then!!! he will say yes I have won and thats it!!! No second
round.
Where does a constitution like that exist in the world?
Yahya knows that if there is a second round then other parties would join
thus win him!!!
Even in a first quarter round!!!!!!!!! Yahya cannot win any free and fair
elections in The Gambia that are based on decency.Fatou Jahumpa  Ceesay
herself knows that!He has lost credibilty and the moral ground.He is known
as ta hief,a liar and an idiot.Some people have this funny believe that one
should not insult a mansa!!! What do we have? Mansa or president? Tell me
if anyone can count how many times Ken Star and team used the word liar on
Clinton during the Clinton/Lewinsky case? Tell me?!!!!!!!
Camon give us a break with this stupid mansaya feelings before a sad idiot
like Yahya Jammeh??? This is serious.
The other card Yahya is trying to play is so open that I was laughing again!
Considering Badibou's family geography,one knows who the following surnames
are.
The Kintehs,the Kantehs,the Dibbas,the Jammehs,the Contehs and Marongs.Here
we have seen Yahya's latest buddy as Kinteh.Is this a hidden cloud of past
clivages that exist between some of our folks in Badibou or someone
dissociated from the reality?
Well we saw Foday Lang Sarr's attempt to promote such as far as the family
geography in Jarra is concerned.Sarr was disgraced and he lost his
face.Even the Secretary general Alieu Ngum mentioned his name in his
testimony so how can Sarr tell us anymore that he had no personal relations
with  Baba Jobe? You see we told you this! The actors and actresses of
Yahya's wretched movies do not understand the scripts!!!!!!!!!!!!
They are just there as dummies.He pays one to say this and then pays the
other to deny it later on.Yahya himself does not understand the script
because it was written by opportunists around him.These opportunists
prepare the so-called scripts in a way that will allow them stay as
advisers for ever.The confusion they cause is deliberate It is a never
ending paradigm.It is just like when a dishonest attorney wants to maintain
a case where he or she knows that the client is rich and can be used to
make money.

Here we have Kinteh telling us that APRC will not entertain a alliance
with any party? Blessings in disguise folks!!!
They also said that! their linkage with NCP was unofficial.Well Gambians go
on the US state dept's country report in The Gambia, for 2002 which was
submitted on march 2003 and see how shameless Yahya is.He used the alliance
with Dibba's NCP to win the minds of the out side gvts thus sold himself as
a real democrat.This he used to get on AGOA and then gain recognition all
over the world as a true democrat and now he says it was unofficial? Did
Kinteh know that?
Well let Kinteh be mindful because the US embassy is reading these articles
and gathering another country report.
Jammeh rushed,changed the boulevard that he named after Ghadaffi and then
ran to show Washington that he was abandoning Tripoli!!!!!!!!! Wow! Is
Yahya following the trend on world politics now? Yahya and his cronies are
really sick,the equities on international relations are not based on
emotions or shaped by mad minds.One has to be smart but not noisy and
sick!!!

Country report The Gambia 2002.........
Quote(page 7 para 4)..."In January National Assembly elections were held
and the major opposition coalition decided to boycott the elections.The
opposition coalition accused the Indepedent Electoral Commission (IEC) of
allowing fraudulent voter registrations and mismanaging both the
presidential and national elections. The boycott was criticised widely as
unjustified and as an inappropriate response to the alleged fraud and left
many of its own candidates unfunded  and unsupported at the time of the
election.In January the APRC  won the majority for the national Assembly,in
part because the UDP/PPP opposition opposition coalition boycotted the
legislative election.
The Democratic Organisation for Independence and Socialism(PDOIS) won two
seats and the National Reconciliation Party (NRP) won one seat.The
President appointed four members of his own party and one former opposition
Presidential Candidate to the 48-member assembly..."

Gambians we live in a world where information is flowing and it depends on
how committed and united we are to get Yahya out within seconds.
Look at the above,which was gathered as data by the US on the Gambia in
2002.The USA is not a banana Republic so our opposition members should
download this document go through it and then present a version that
debunks every aspect within it.
These documents are passed to the congress and the congress rules through
codes,caps and volumes.Law looks for convincing facts and details not
rhetoric.So if the opposition presents hard facts basing it on the country
report they will certainly win the minds of our development partners and
tell them that Yahya is no democrat.
The way forward is not only boycotting but should also be followed with
professional analyses.It is certain that Lawyer Darboe and co have the
expertise to do that.

Kinteh should therefore know that he has started digging Yahya's grave.I
hope he will not also be changed because OPTV mentioned Pa Ahmady Jallow
the police spokesperson and showed how inept the police's strattegies were
and then a day or two after Pa Ahmady was gone.Changing faces does not
matter Yahya! What matters is putting in place dynamic and redistributive
policies.

OPTV is currently going through the country report as mentioned here and
then will produce documented facts that will debunk the parts that are
inaccurate and then forward its version to the competent US authorities.We
have the contacts and will make good use of them.This is a war and Yahya
has to be exposed.
Now the opposition members should forget about thier chronic ideological
stands and then put our nation's interest as immediate priority.Let them
get up go round the world,expose Yahya and look through every document
where he lied thus debunk those lies with facts.What other evidence do they
need now.The central bank,YDE,The New Millenium,Mile Two,Jeshwang
Prisons,The Green Boys,The Junlgers,The NIA diamond saga,The arms from
Bulagria,Charles Taylor's friendship,Sani Abacha,Lawyer Sillah's case,his
parrots and giraffes,his croccodiles,his money bags,Sindola etc etc are
enough facts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What else folks?!!!
