Daffeh,
Is it useful debating with you since you provide no
reasons but just insults? First of all, indeed UDP as a party should
consider the wishes of the people instead of few big headed party
supporters,like you said. Secondly what overtures and national interest
that is above coalition. The parties are now acting as group of 5 or 6 and
such remarks from you without any substance are bound to bring disrepute.
After all, the only thing Sidia said was that Ousainou would have been
chosen as the flag bearer, in his opinion, since he would have contested
against Hamat and Gomez, and he was only answering concerns raised by the
attendees and since you have not refute that, what is your problem? So let
us agree to disagree and help fund the legal tussles that group faces,
rather than be the dividing
factor.
