Beran,
Those who know Waa aka Mbarodi since his Commissioner days at Kerewan would
talk of his love for the adrenaline. Too bad gladiators died before his
time!

Subject: Re: Darboe can still save the day
Malanding,
I'm not a subscribing member of the UDP and I share your sentiments.
However,I'm disturb by the way Waa is handling the issue.
Usually,party crisis of this magnitude is handle at the committee level,if
that fails to provide resolution,the discontented party/parties
usually resigns from the party.
I read in the local papers,I believe it was the Independent,that Waa was
invited to the U.S,by a Gambian group,to explore the possibility
of forming a political party.I am wondering,going by Waa's behavior,if his
intension is bring down the UDP and use some of the fallouts to jump start
his new party.
Just a thought.
