Joe:

With the theatrics going on; mistrust this, mistrust that; "yes I am a
member of NADD, but yes I am with Ousianou (who resigned from NADD)";
Ousainou is out of NADD but UDP is still part of NADD; Kemeseng is still
with NADD. "I want to have my cake and eat it....blah blah"

How can Hamat and NRP belong to two coalitions?

They are becoming experts in confusing the electorates, that's certain.
The only reason for the large turn out in last weekend's "show-my-face" in
Brikama was for curiosity and a need to know what is really going on the
ordinary folks part.

If Ousainou refused to listen to genuine folks and decide to confuse the
people with his theatrics, he might as well accept the handouts from Yaya
through Lie Conteh (if you truly believe Lie has broken out with
Yaya...)together with those old wheelers still looking for a spot on the
country's history.

>>For years, Gambians longed for a strong and united opposition that would
>>challenge President Yahya Jammeh.  Last year, five opposition parties
>> came
>>together to create the National Alliance for Democracy and Development.
>>But
>>with presidential elections scheduled for October this year, one of the
>> key
>>members of the alliance has resigned. Osainou Darboe, whose United
>>Democratic Party holds the majority, says he was resigning due to lack of
>>trust among its members.
>>Hamat Bah is leader of the National Reconciliation Party and a member of
>>the
>>opposition alliance.  English to Africa reporter James Butty asked him if
>>there is a problem of distrust among members of the alliance.  “Well,
>>that’s
>>Mr. Darboe’s perception. That’s his belief. I can believe certainly to an
>>extent what Ousainou Darboe is saying. May be he has every reason to
>>believe
>>that some members don’t trust him in the coalition.”
>>Bah says the National Alliance for Democracy and Development has been
>>having
>>power struggle problems.  “Yes, as it happens in every coalition, there
>>have
>>been some problems in selecting a coalition leader. But we have not
>>completely exhausted completely the process through which we set
>> ourselves
>>in the memorandum of understanding.”
>>Bah denies that part of the coalition’s problems is a result of ethnic
>>differences. He blames such thinking on detractors of the coalition who
>> he
>>says will say anything to tarnish the coalition’s image. He says the
>>coalition has not dashed the hopes of the Gambian people.  “We have not
>>disappointed the people of Gambia. In fact we have rekindled  the hope of
>>Gambians. And we have no doubt that come October 2006, there will be one
>>credible opposition candidate against Yahya Jammeh, and Jammeh will
>>definitely be defeated.”
