There you guys go again, What is with our cousins in the UK for just making things up. I have never heard Halifa Sallah talkinga bout to be considered for being the coalition . leader, and no other leader is fighting for the leadership. All everyone is asking is: please let us know how you would want to lead us and where are you going to take us. Now, if you are unable to tell the entire country how you would like to lead us, please do not blame us for being cautious and skeptical. There is a dog whistle among the people that maybe the UDP entity does not really ahve the capacity to roll out such a document, and that the executive is full of lazy people hiding behind the facade of stubornness.  Now for me, I know of some smart guys on this side of the Atlantic that have what it takes to craft such a document, whether the folks back home are willing to back it up is another matter. Frankly, this is very easy, just tell us how you would like to frame a coalition of opposition parties that can deliver in November, and how you would restore or bring democracy, rule of law and economic development to the Gambia......

 

Thank you

If PDOIS can do any better why is that, they are not in the position of the UDP? If we are the Gorilla at the door, can you explain what premise that on?
The truth remains, which is, If less a popular person will go to heaven and back just to somehow use the base of the majority to become the third President, do you want UDP to scold him and force him to commit to the reality of UDP being the obvious choice to led an opposition Coalition?
You tell us how to make PDOIS realise that, politics is about votes. The one can can pull them is the natural party to be allow the mantle to lead. Whether we are the Scorpion, Gorilla, Elephant is beside the issue.
Why should Halifa even consider himself to lead the opposition Coalition knowing full well that, his presume intellectual capabilities have never achieve him or translated into votes in the Presidential domain or even the national assembly contest.
WHo then is the Dumpling in the path to salvation?
The Guinean minor party leaders never waste anybodies time with their interest in leading. They know it is outrageous and against all conventional wisdom. But do we expect a polarise community like ours here to acknowledge this facts without dancing around the camp fire? Nop.
Therefore, we have made all contacts with every single party. We made our position clear to them, and we will continue to do that. However, if we are seen as the Elephant in the way, we will politely rubbish that, as baseless wanton excuse, because if any has the right to the jungle delicacy, the Elephant shouldn't be the last.
We boldly say, let PDOIS stop time wasting, creating unnecessary road block and complex unworkable line of communication.

It is obvious and to arduous chagrin of the UDPlings, if PDOIS were in UDP's position as the opposition party with a larger voter base, We would've been where we wanted at this point in time. Again, UDP bombed the leadership test in 2006 and now. They have proven to be the thousand pound gorilla at the door - no one can get though and they are not getting through to a united front. Unfortunate, and I hope they come through and prove me wrong, I sincerely hope so.

Thank you,
