He started by saying that he would like to speak in English for whole world to hear!! Then came out the gem. He said, and I quote " JAWARA DE CALABANTEYA ABDOU JOOF, AND ABDOU JOOF DE CALABANTEYA JAWARA; BUT NOW WEGO KNOW WHO IS THE BIGGER CALABANTE".

Wade MUST NOT be allowed to seek another term as President of Senegal. If Yahya is the solution to the Cassamance imbroglio, then the problem will remain unsolved for Senegal when Yahya is no longer President of Gambia. The MFDC took up arms because they made repeated demands for a more equitable distribution of national wealth and development. Successive Senegalese governments have been kicking the can down the road. It is time they listen to the citizens of Senegal. Equitable distribution of national wealth and development is not rocket science. Why sacrifice lives of Senegalese citizens for limited personal gains and ambition??
