The likes of you Bamba Lying and Olly mboge don'y get it. Self denial is
becoming some of you. You will not help your cause by failing to point out
to the party that you support when they make blunders. Any right thinking
person, not myopic idiots like your lot, will know that for the UDP to stand
any chance of being elected to office needs support from all sections of
society. If the UDP wants to have a DIGITAL Gambia or campaign on a digital
platform, ie either you are with us or you are against us, then I'm afraid
call it day. Of the many questions being asked by some in your camp
concerning your current exercise, tell me whose concerns have so far been
addressed. Six months before presidential elections and the UDP has still
failed to give any clear cut program of action or make their manifesto
available to your members. If you ask me for example what I think the APRC's
priorities would be, I can safely tell you that they will continue to invest
in Education, Health, Agriculture and the marketing of our produce. If you
ask me their strategy, I can safely tell you that they will constantly the
voters that they slowly but surely delivering what they've promised. How
about you lot? Ask me about the UDP strategy, and I will tell you that they
continue their negative campaign without telling us specifically what they
will for us in return for giving them the mandate to lead us. For God's sake
wake up you lot! Ask any madman in our streets about PDOIS will do, and they
will most probably tell you that they will invest heavily in fisheries and
agriculture. Get the drift?

Have a nice slumber and bye 4Now, KB Jobe.
