Omar, thanks for this update. It is no surprise that Yaya will order the
remand of Waa and Gambians better wake up. I urge the rest of the
Alternative leadership and all Gambians to say no to this heavy handedness
by the Yaya and the APRC. Folks, this is an injustice to all Gambians
regardless of party afiliation and we should put a stop to it. I hope the
Alternative would not sit and watch Waa abused by these criminals. It is
time to fill the streets and jails and I urge the grassroots of NDAM and all
Gambians for justice to camp at mile two and force Waa's release. This
government needs to be given an ultimatum. We either get liberty or are
willing to die for it. Yesterday was Ousainou, today is Waa, who is next,
Halifa, Sidia, Hamat, OJ, etc.? Folks, this is not time for appeal, or
lobby, or being faint at heart - it is time to demand dignity and justice
and Gambians are tired of being abused by Yaya. It is about time we fill
the streets. Folks, this arrest of Waa is by design and it is about time we
use Operation No Compromize on Yaya himself.
