Is it because we're working on the wrong problem or no problem?

Is it because a call to rally behind one candidate is humanly unnatural?

Is single candidate in fact the issue?

I hailed from a village of less than 500 people and we still contest for
alikalo-ship! Why wouldn't a nation with estimated 1.8million people!

Should we claim the republic or deposing the president? The former could
lead to the later but not necessarily - however the former create a level
playing field based on rules/orders of "we the people".

Claiming the republic also did not require anyone abandon your party or
candidature for any elections; it's a work that dictates creating a nation
that you, me and all else are treated same in accordance with sets of rules
by the people usually through their rightful representatives.

Claiming the republic also do not have to wait for a new president - that
work starts right away and most likely continue with whoever comes to
office along our way

Above all it is this republic we equitably share - that's we will be
different in everything else and that includes political parties.,
religion, moral/cultures, etc.

Over the years we convinced ourselves that someone dropping his desire to
be a president is a common good for common interest. Can you begin to
imagine if that someone is you or me. Why would it be your/my interest to
drop off for someone else. Unnatural!!!!!!

All we need is simple and clear - A Republic managed Democratically (equal
participation of all of us). Don't let anyone tell you X or Y has put in
all his life, it's irrelevant in a republic and it creates a colt-like
blind following. Our informed people will be able to make choices out of
every set of Gambians. What we need to do is to make that play ground as
level as humanly possible.

Tell us what you think is responsible for failing to unite.
