Nancy, thanks for your request. The Save The Gambia Democracy Project (SGDP), formerly, Save The Gambia Fund organization is in consultation with the Alternative leadership and we are working on bringing their chosen representative to officially update us on the going ons in their discussions, at the ALD conference in Washington D.C., at the end of July. We have a PR person for the organization who is in charge of communicating for the organization. I am one of four Regional Coordinators in the Midwest region and we have I belive five regions (South, West, East, and North East, and Midwest - each with four elected representatives). The structure for the organization came into being this past February, in Atlanta. I had to respond to Conteh because his was misinformation as usual. ALD is just three weeks away (weekend of July 29) and I urge folks to attend if they could because a lot is going to be discussed there. It looks like you are writing from the UK and I assure you that the PR officer for the organization will brief the readership on the L and Post after the event. So please stay tuned. The SGDP is an organization by and for Gambians and friends of Gambia to effect meaningful change in the Gambia. I urge Gambians to join this organization that will work to bring the Alternative leadership to share one platform to rid ourselves of the pest that is Yaya Jammeh and the AFPRC. This is our only hope folks and together we can and will achieve uncommon results. Also, please read the forwarded article by Foroyaa and I believe another one by the Observer where the proposed coalition is discussed. I hope this helps partially answer your question. However, if I did not, please hit me back with any follow-up questions you may have.
