*''Again, the recent forum on Freedom where invitations were made to all the leaders, again these two individuals were nowhere to be found. There is a pattern, and people are not stupid to see right through these gimmicks''.* - Musa JENG Father Mose, there you go again displaying your disingenuousness once again. You are aware of the fact that UDP extended a hand of friendship to pdois and invited them for talks and they were rebuffed. So if pdois cannot meet UDP at the table to talk out issues, why the hell will Ousainu share the same panel with halifa on freedom? You must be dreaming. If halifa wants a squabble, let him come to the table and meet ousainu there. He will have plenty of it. Ousainu is not going to negotiate a coalition with anybody in the media. It has to be behind closed doors, and if STGDP doesn't like that; well you can go to hell. As far as we are concern, STGDP is a bunch of incompetents that is not worth engaging. No wonder no one is taking notice of you. And by the way, who are you to dictate terms to the UDP or Ousainu? UDP is a sovereign party and it is not obliged to do things on your terms especially if they are that disingenuous as they currently are.
