Nyang, tell Halifa to provide the contrary and let's see what will follow. I am not wasting my time on you. I rather do that on your Ayatollah.

PDOIS's lies peddling and wishful idealism will no longer be allowed to fly across the face of commonsense. Scapegoating Alhagi Ousainou is not a viable option either. So tell Sidia to get a life.

By the way, thanks for clarifying the purpose of G6 to our very own gullible Ex. Lt. Kejau Touray.

My challenge to him is to provide here or to the online media that they worked very hard to misslead, the proposal UDP sent to the partys or their negotiating positions in official literature. If he fails to do this then you can guess it yourself, that it is in variance to the lies he is peddling here.
> On a more important note, i will provide you with the details you requested for about membership to PDOIS, however i wish to point our here that the effort of the oppositon G-5 is not geared towards alliance or coalition building for porpuses of contesting an election rather it is for a unity of interest in ensuring electoral reform for a level playing field for all parties. Electoarl reform to remove the age barrier to the post of the presidency, re-introduction of the second round of viting in the presidential election and other related issues. The age limit especially the second round of voting are very essential components of the reform package the G-5 is seeking and it is my fervent belief that this is acheivable if we pursue this agenda with vigor and determination as a united group.

First of all, indeed UDP as a party should consider the wishes of the people instead of few big headed party supporters,like you said. Secondly what overtures and national interest that is above coalition. The parties are now acting as group of 5 or 6 and such remarks from you without any substance are bound to bring disrepute. After all, the only thing Sidia said was that Ousainou would have been chosen as the flag bearer, in his opinion, since he would have contested against Hamat and Gomez, and he was only answering concerns raised by the attendees and since you have not refute that, what is your problem? So let us agree to disagree and help fund the legal tussles that group faces, rather than be the dividing factor.
