Lawyer Darboe would be embarking on a multinational tour later this month to
meet and solicit the support of Gambians and friends of Gambia in the United
States and Western Europe. Mr Darboe would be accompanied by at least one
other member of the UDP executive and is tentatively scheduled to arrive in
the US on the 22 of May.The main purpose of the trip is for Mr Darboe to
provide a detailed briefing to Gambians especially to the vast numbers who
may not be ardently following events back home about the state of affairs and
what he and his party would do as a government. A direct objective is to
persuade Gambians to recognize that the stakes for our country have never
been higher with the shape, constitution and the very essence of our society
all riding on fateful decisions that must made later this year. He would
emphasize that a successful reversal of the literal enslavement of our people
that Yahya and his gang of murderers have almost consummated would require
our collective involvement. Another very important component in this tour
would be the opportunity Mr Darboe and his delegation would have to listen to
specific ideas from a broad cross section of our people. That is why all
appearances would be structured to allow for a presentation by Mr Darboe and
his party followed by a question and answer session. A series of fund raising
sessions are planned, the first of which would be held on Friday evening
between 6.00pm -11.00pm (May 25) in Silver Spring MD. It would be held at the
Unitarian Presbyterian Church on NewHampshire Ave. The big Church auditorium
would be a comfortable venue for the added crowd in town for the ALD. Please
make arrangements to come and help out. We would be holding similar fund
raising events in NewYork, Atlanta and Seattle .I would post dates for those
events as soon as the modalities are worked out.
Thanks
Karamba
