Mr. Juwara made this pronouncement earlier today when he spoke to Malick Alaba Jones in an exclusive interview on Gambia Radio and Television Services. Juwara also praised the election process in The Gambia by saying tremendous improvements have been made. Juwara lambasted claims by the opposition that the elections were unfair. He said if anybody is to be blamed it is the opposition because they could not be united for a common goal. He acknowledged that they did not receive any reports for any irregularity on Election Day. On the whole, he hailed the process as being totally improved compared to previous years. The "Lion" as he is known in Gambian political cycles also said President Jammeh was the President for all Gambians and not just for the APRC. He posited that the country has to move on and the elections need to be behind us. What Lamin Waa-Juwara did today is what any patriotic Gambian who calls himself a genuine politician who loves The Gambia should do. There is no one politician who has been more critical of this Government than Lamin Waa Juwara and for him to come out and put his politics behind him and speak the truth, speaks volumes of him and indeed demonstrates his patriotism to his country unlike his opposite number who is still crying over spilled milk. Juwara and NADD may differ from the APRC as far as ideology is concerned and that is normal, today they showed the whole world that Gambia comes first and egos come last. Our Political commentator said NADD took the high road and this he said could be very beneficial to them in the upcoming National Assembly Elections. He went on to say that it is not a common practice in Africa for political parties to come forward and concede noting that most always want to blame their defeat on voting irregularities and what not. He said NADD demonstrated political maturity because they said they were going to study the process and come back to the people and it appears he said, "WAA Juwara" has done that today and has done justice to this country." Apparently Waa Juwara's opposite number in the other party is still holding on to his previous stance that the process was not fair and even went to the extent of accusing an honourable man in IEC Chairman, Alhagi Mustapha Carayol of wrong doing. A legal practitioner of his repute should have known there is a clause in the law of the land called, Slander and spreading false and malicious information and he may have to dance to this tune if Mr. Carayol so chooses to seek redress in the Judicial process.Waa Juwara has not made calls for the latter to resign, but most Gambian political observers acknowledged that it is time for him to resign from politics and go back to what he does best, LAWYER-ING. ----------------------------gambiapost.NET------------------------------ ------LATEST NEWS FROM THE GAMBIA, NOW AT:>>------- http://www.gambiapost.net/newspaper いいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいい To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] いいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいい
