Hallo? The Opposition … Hallo? This Is Our Message

The UDP has done it; they have resumed political activity with their recent
rally at New Jeswang last Saturday. During the rally, Darboe spoke about the
gunning down of young Ousman Ceesay, challenging the authorities to
investigate the matter which, he claimed, involved soldiers he described as
Jammeh’s.
On Jammeh’s score in the presidential poll of 18th October, Darboe posited
that the President was only able to pull 52%, adding that if Roberts didn’t
mess up with the registration, the President would have been in the
opposition by now.
Interesting! Jammeh, leader of the Opposition! Can someone imagine for one
moment such a democratic posture? Anyway, back to reality.
And the reality on the ground is that Jammeh is the president-elect and he
is preparing his people for the next parliamentary election and wants his
party to capture more seats. So, the opposition is warned; it must be up to
the challenge.
BY THE WAY, NO OPPOSITION PARTY HAS SO FAR REACTED TO THE CALL FOR A UNITED
OPPOSITION FROM “CONCERNED GAMBIANS IN THE DIASPORA”(MY EMPHASIS) Hamat Bah
is proposing solutions to Gambia’s ECOWAS bid and we hope Government would
take heed and address the issues raised by the NRP leader
