>Thanks once again for your 29th message to Gambians everywhere. Seedy Ahmed
>and the rest of us will make sure that it receives wide circulation in the
>days ahead of D-Day. It appears that all of a sudden Gambians have awakened
>to the maladministration of the Jammeh regime. On the surface this might
>appear not to be the case, but The Gambia and Gambians have been going
>through a thorough and a profound soul-searching process, weighing ALL that
>has transpired since the July 22 1994 coup d'etat and what came after the
>1996 "elections" which transformed Yahya into a civilian president.
>Gambians being the ever forgiving people they are, were prepared to give
>the young and inexperienced president a chance to prove himself.But what
>did the moron do with this once-in-a-life time opportunity? He blew it up.
>He was convinced that by terrorising the population, he could get away with
>everything. I remember Blaise Jagne calling Yahya on the phone and
>insulting "mandinkas and fulas" and recommending to Yahya that they should
>be further intimidated because Gambians are only worried about saving their
>jobs; this was on the phone when Blaise Jagne was at the Foreign Affairs.
>Those surrounding him are very well aware of the nonentity and the
>ill-educated "boss" he is and so they carried him by the hand and in the
>process where profiteering from the situation at the expense of The Gambia
>and her peoples. Well, they have under-estimated the tolerance level of the
>Gambian people and have miscalculated the support they were expecting from
>the voters.  Being the slow-learners they are, it only dawned on them after
>their campaign tour of URD that they were finished. That's the reason why
>Fatoumatta Jahumpa Ceesay spent the entire night posting messages on the
>Gambia-L. You cannot blame her; she is a desperate woman who needs help
>psychologically, emotionally and physically. She knows that the game is up.
>Gambians are ready to march to State House on Thursday to install their new
>President: President Ousainou N. Darboe.  The military came out clean
>today. We hope that the police will do like wise.  The burning down of the
>Local Government Department should be investigated thoroughly and
>professionally, devoid of politics. The Opposition will do nothing to
>jeopardise their insurmountable lead in the polls. Coach, take it from me,
>YAHYA JAMMEH IS FINISHED.
