Demba,
Thank you very much for your response. We appreciate any word of
encouragement we can get from Gambians both inside and outside The Gambia.
As promised, the proposals to run the interim government will be
forthcoming. I hope you appreciate why we cannot publicize plans set in
place to remove Yaya. But when that day comes, all well meaning Gambians
interested in ridding our country of tyranny, will have a part to play
…ranging from staying indoors to avoid looting, to rounding up Yaya and his
cohorts.
We had planned to allow a little time to receive comments on some of our
remarks before posting other proposals for running an interim government.
Once that period expires, you will see other postings.
Be rest assured of our resolve and dedication to this cause. I understand
how you feel back home and how hopeless it is to wait for Yaya to be
removed through elections. I recognize the fact that you are on the ground,
experiencing first-hand, the suffering of our people. Keep hope alive and
continue the struggle. We will also do our little part.
WE MUST GET RID OF YAYA BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.
