Fair and free elections is the answer to our problem and not military intervention.After the experience with the Jammeh group,i don't trust any soldier that claims to be of a difference.We should therefore concentrate our efforts and resources towards creating and environment of ensuring free and fair elections. I share the same concern,expressed already by some, that Jammeh will not go when defeated at the ballot box.If that turns out to be the case what next !!!!!!!!!!!. After the 1994 take over,Koro Sallah of Moja came to Gambia after being in exile since the 1981 coup attempt.To my surprise,Koro had audience with Jammeh for some few hours and left.He took a flight back to Scandinavia and release to the press that Gambia regional war or tribal war. I'm always wondering why he said that.Can someone help if possible.

I am equally frustrated with this regime and I understand your frustration. However, Ebou Colley and Jatta are not saying anything new. All the military thugs that ran our continent to the sea said the same thing. Remember, Jammeh also said the same thing. Instead of the gun, why don't they mobilize their colleagues and exercise their constitutional right to ensure a free and fair elections and also vote him out of office. This way, the cycle of blood letting is broken and innocent lives will not be lost. I am not worried about future retirement of Yahya and his rodents. No place is far and no shelter is secure, for we will prosecute them to the fullest. They know that. We should not let our emotions guide us, but our intellect. Our brothers and sisters in Senegal did it, we can do it too, with clear thinking and persistence. Lets forge ahead.
