Mr. Ceesay: I remain steadfast for a free Gambia and would adhere to principles supported by majority Gambians. I am not here to engage you in endless tirades. You can call me whatever you dream of. Our only crusade is to bring sanity to our country. You are even welcomed to inundate us with suggestions. It is sad that while we fight the dictator is denying us our rights. Intellectual ignorance is no excuse for stupidity.

You certainly do not speak for me as I have my own mind. Your words sound just like those of a drowning man. A drowning man will grab anything to save himself from drowning. Don't tell me that credibility, trustworthiness, honesty, morality, etc. has nothing to do with the selection process. If you truly mean your statements above, why not just reinstate former president Jawara and save yourself more trouble? For some one who is parading here as a wannabe leader for a united opposition, your thinking skills have a lot to be desired. > This is not an attack on you, but a condemnation > on your nearsightedness. Now, who is suffering from nearsightedness? Certainly, it's you who can't seem to see beyond his nose and has nothing to offer but short-term solutions for long-term goals. I don't approve your short-term strategy but that shouldn't mean I disaprove of a united opposition. What I cannot tolerate is the imposition of your ideals on all and sundry as if you are the sole beholder of truth. What you should do is let people provide their own reasoning as to why they want a united opposition to try and convince the rest. You nearsighted opinion might be influenced for the better.
