Mr. Jow,
A very good observation. Any such debate of national importance
concerning The Gambia should be organize in The Gambia, to allow all
and sundry to participate rather than a few cliche of individuals.
Why in a third country?

Mr. Mboge
I should start by commending you for your initiative in having a debate
between Halifa and Hamjatta. It is also important to note that this debate
will be more beneficial to Gambians if it had been between the leaders of
the various political parties in the Gambia. Arrangements could be made to
have Dr. Saga Taal, Hamat Bah, Lamin Jawura, and Halifa to debate on the
various party policies so as to help the Gambian electorate determine who is
best to represent them and to address their needs and aspirations.
I should add that following the debate between Halifa and Hamjatta on the L
I didn't see the need for such a forum to be convened for the fact that
Hamjatta has not raised any sincere or constructive criticisms of PDOIS that
should warrant this debate, but it is always important for leaders to be
ready to engage their critics in a meaningful debate to ensure that there
isn't any distortion of facts. Halifa needs to be commended for never
shying to take up a debate on matters of national interest. I would however
hope that representatives and leaders of other political parties will
emulate Halifa and PDOIS in order to ensure an enlightened and democratic
Gambia. I would infact be willing to contribute towards Halifa's ticket to
the UK.
Peace
PaSamba Jow (Coach)
