Movement for Democracy and
evelopment (MDD) working to promote Democracy, Human rights and Justice had a
ig protest in front of a down town New york Hotel where President Jammeh is
odging immediately after his arrival from The Gambia. The hotel activities were
otal disrupted and quests started to find out about the reason behind the noise
nd confrontation while all the other near by hotels had been peaceful but Ritz
arlton Hotel.
osters and banners were displayed around the hotel reading: (Who ordered the
illing of Ousman Koro Ceesay? It is President Yahya Jammeh). (Who ordered the
illing of our fourteen students? It is President yahya Jammeh). (Who ordered
he killing of Dehda Hydara? It is President Yahya Jammeh). (Where is Daba
areneh and the four officers whom President Jammeh claimed have escaped while
n their way to be transfer from Mile 11 Central prison to Janjanbureh prison?
e want to know.)
T-Shirts reading (Release Chief Ebrima Manneh, Release Kanyiba Kanyni were worn
uring the protest.
There were two=2
0ladies supporters of president Jammeh who attempted to counter
ur protest but were too weak to do so despite president Jammeh's own personal
rotective guards present at the seen. Major Alhagie Martin and Lft. Gilbert
ibba, some protocol officers were all at the seen but Jammeh cowardly refused
o face the protesters but opted to escape into the hotel.
The mother of all protest against President Jammeh has begun in New york. This
s going to continue till the last day of his departure from the USA. We
herefore, call on people of conscience, democratic minded people and believers
f human rights to join us in these protests to let President Jammeh be aware
hat Gambia is not an Island.
During these protests, we will call on President Jammeh to release Journalist
hief Ebrima Manneh, Kanyiba Kanyni and all rest of the detainees.
Those who want to reach President Jammeh can do so through the below hotel
ddress and phone number.

Note, during the protest, the New York police were called to stop us but after
xplaining to them the reason for our protest, and more over the type of
resident we are protesting against, who kill his own people and dislike
merica, we were allow to go ahead.
From the executive Committee:
