Ousman, I like to join you in thanking Saul for hitting the nail precisely on the head. In addition,if the truth means being anti Jammeh so be it just as the song goes "who that cap fits let them wear it". Jammeh himself wanted the truth,he also wanted accountability and transparency. He infact called on Gambians to come out in force against him if he does something wrong,but we all know what happened when the students did. I hold him accountable for what he called for,especially when he proves to be on the contrary. G-L is an open platform that I believe encourages the participation of all despite the individuals political affiliation or belief. I'm sure Musa Jeng must have realized that Mr. Kebba Dampha has been calling for debate on their 100 days program after Jammeh,but ihave not seen much happening on that because our preference is to remove Jammeh through the ballot box under a free and fair environment,though I Share Mr. Dampha's concern that Jammeh does not have the integrity to relinquish power even when defeated under a free and fair election,but as most on the list,another coup is not our preferred path to go on.

Saul, Thanks so much. I do not have to crack my brain any more. U have said it all. I hope it is clear to all that the Gambia-L is not popular because it delivers what one person wants. It is not dictated and not suppressed. I believe that if any of the media outlets back home have the same sovereignty, they would have been more circulated than the articles on the L-. Secondly, no one should be mislead that the papers from the L-, are well circulated because of anything else, but the truth and freedom in this room. If the people cant listen to the truth from their transistors or read it from their local papers, they are bound to get form somewhere else, and this time it happens to be the L. So brothers and sisters, let us all keep the fight. there are a lot of roads to the corner.
