Heool Saul, Thank you for your message which I read on the GAMBIA-L. I was very interesting and holds a lot of sences. However, the opinion for the possible president to me does not hold facts and trust on the side of Mr. Sheriff Mustapha Dibba former National Convention Party leader. To me , becoming a an opposition leader or a president needs a lot of qualities one of which is to brave as I described it. Sheriff was a recgonised opposition leader through out the world since he resigned from the Jawara's government in mid sixties or early seventies. When the APRC came to power in july, they bad all the polical parties including his and treathen to fined any one ban for a fee of D1.000.000.00 or a life sentence if I got it right and he being a coward shut his mouth , and this is not what is expected of him. Look at oppositions like Nelson Mandela, Mr. Gandi, and lot of others who despite many treats do not syop their campainge. To me apart from Jawara, Shriff had contributed a lot the Jammeh's success as a president. I feel he should refused the ban like what Nelson Mandela did and we all see the outcome. I do not need to talk about Sedia Jatta , but I knew that he had all qualities to be crown as a president from all coners even though his party's concepts are not widely accepted by many Gambians. I would have sited a lot more examples but I do not have much time and I hope you will accept my contribution (as I called it) very usefull and self explainatory. LONG LIFE GAMBIA-L AND GAMBIA PEOPLES Wish you all a nice RAMADAN. your brother Babucar Jaata (Boye Neneh - Kombo Gunjur) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
