UDP leader, Ousainou Darboe, has said, "Jammeh and his entire cabinet should
resign to pave the way for fresh elections to be conducted as soon as
possible."
Addressing a press conference yesterday, at the UDP bureau, Mr Darboe said,
"`Due to massive corruption and violation of fundamental human rights... the
APRC government should resign in the national interest."
He outlined that Gambians are now "fully aware" that the AFPRC/APRC which is
still struggling for full acceptance by the international community, cannot
addressed its development aspirations. He added that factors responsible for
this, range from policy failure, administrative ineptitude and ccorruption in
high places.
Darboe criticised government for the closure of Citizen FM radio and New
Citizen. He condemned SoS Yankuba Touray statement that the regime 'will
never be defeated through the ballot box', thus violating the election decree.
"People may question the credibility of the IEC whether they are not
hand-in-glove with the regime if Yankuba Touray can predict the outcome of the
next general elections."
