Karamba,

Yes, it appears  indeed, that the people have spoken, and  despite our varied
opinions as to who can best serve the people, and who has their best interest
at heart, we have to respect their wishes because that is what democracy is
all about.
We wish Gambia well, and call upon the APRC government to serve all the
people equally and within the laws of our land and our constitution because
this is what the people expect when they charge them with the mandate to
govern.
