Boycotting elections have far reaching consequences Haruna.. So there has to a strategy or follow true... Anything less will spell disaster for the parties involved.. Aka UDP 2001 to this day They regret...

So tell me there is nothing to it but just that boycott!!! I beg to differ...

Demba, I am disappointed in you a bit.

Boycotting elections does not have anything to do with what you will or wont do thereafter. For elections, you decide to either contest or not to contest based on your assessment. It has nothing to do with whether you go jump-roping or swimming thereafter. For political parties who boycot elections, they are always free to do whatever they desire after that decision. They have a party to run you know!!!!!!!!!!!!

Muhammad friggin Abdallah!

If you are a political party who boycotted an election and don't know what to do thereafter, you may want to reconsider your occupation in life.

Haruna.

Well, boycotting elections is the easy part... What is the strategy there after? You boycott the elections and now What? When you can't see eye to eye on almost anything??????? I still think the idea is not a well thoughtout decision... thus the reason everyone is scrambling for their own way...
 
Thanks
Demba

Hamat is entitled to freedom of association for any election. I encourage him to follow his heart. NRP is also entitled to the freedom of choice for engagement. At all times.

If any individual or political party feels they desire to compete in the NA elections, I encourage them to do so. However if they should feel they ought not compete in those elections, I encourage them to boycot.

For my part, I think they should all boycot the elections, and let the APRC contest them alone if they so desire.

"Right now, the man who never fails to amase is the one who is key to betraying 
the cause yet again, Hamat Bah. This is why, he cannot put to bed the suspicion 
people have of him with the Dictator."

Suntou:

Hamat is no Jammeh's play book or or payroll. Hamat is bankrolled by one corrupt 
Nigerian chief for whom he has to run elections or break a contract/agreement. 
So, by hook or by crook Hamat has to "do an election" unless IEC decides to 
cancel. Hamat can shout all he wants on Freedom and say arrogant stuff like "I 
care less what people say." What kind of politician will talk like that? Is this 
guy for real - well I know, he already has his pockets full so he has to act the 
fool.
