"Within the coming weeks, I will announce the formation of an organization dedicated to removing Yahya Jammeh. After Jammeh is removed, this organization will morph into a political party, but until then we will do whatever is necessary to remove Yahya Jammeh and either run him out of the country, or we will capture him and hand him over to the Sierra Leone or The Hague Courts.

... I don鈥檛 know if I will ever lead it or be a part of its leadership, but today, there is no Gambian both at home and abroad who is better prepared than me to run the government of our country. But, whether the Gambian people will give me the opportunity to do is another matter. But, there is nothing I would love to do more than to truly help transform our country into an oasis of development and prosperity in the midst of failed regimes and wasted African governments. From the educational and experience point of view, no Head of State in an Africa country can match me in terms of education, experience and readiness combined. In fact, I can say, all around the world, no president is better prepared than I am. I am not conceited. I am being truthful"

Mathew K Jallow's talk with The Gambia Echo both excites and illuminates.

I highly recommend the entire interview for all watchers of our political space.
