Conteh, this is the reason why Gambia is where it is today, precisely 
because we scat around issues.  Conteh, you just read that Ousainou and 
Hamat left NADD, do you have an opinion on that?  Do you see any 
contridiction in Ousainou leaving NADD and Yaya Jallow "staying" with NADD?  
Did you support NADD because of Ousainou or did you believe in NADD?  Please 
do not reduce this greedy behavior of Ousainou and Hamat to a burden on 
myself or NADD.  I think you know and see the culprit here, but for reasons 
best known to you, you want to look the other way.

"What will you do if Sidia, Halifa, Sam Sarr and other objective Gambians 
join UDP/NRP coalition?
I predict this will eventually happen."

Conteh, if I had known you to tilt the bottle, I had tell you to quit what 
ever brand you're on, for it is messing you up.  To your list above, please 
add OJ and Waa.  Conteh, these folks you listed are the definition of being 
principled and they have demonstrated it through out the years.  When the 
rest of the PPP fled or joined Yaya, OJ was standing up and speaking his 
mind, abuse and all.  How many times did Waa go in and out of prison and 
abused?  Conteh, your above quote really sums your position regarding this 
issue and I have seen some of you that used to jump about NADD to for what 
ever reason, align with Ousainou.  I wonder what is the common denominator 
here.  To you and some that are silent that were supposed to support NADD, 
your allegiance it seems to me is to Ousainou.  Not to be a revisionist 
here, but you recalled in 2001 when Sheriff Dibba left the UDP/PPP Coalition 
because of power grab, and you pack up with Sheriff and joined the APRC - 
your "Olive Branch Sermon"?  Is this not deja vous all over again?  Just 
like your allegiance was to Sheriff, it seems to me that you are doing the 
same here with Dorboe.  Think Gambia my brother, that is what is going to 
liberate us, not individual or sub interests.
" Do you want to be perceived as an individual who is unwilling to 
compromise."

Conteh, for God sake speak the truth as you see it.  Since when am I the 
issue is this scam?  I am not those that will call for one Gambia in public 
and be a supremacist behind closed doors.  We have gone this rout many times 
before and each time, time vindicates me.  Please, folks see through what 
you are attempting to do here, just so you know.  The truth shall always set 
us free.
