Comrades:
Alan's message clearly defines his ignorance and the misconception that we
will not respond to his satire. We have climbed the mountain and are
almost at the top to turn back.
Our responsibility is for a united front against the dictatorship. We have
showcased our intellectual talent, but we sincerely lack financial and
united front for a yahyaless Gambia. What will we achieve if we cannot
collectively summon the opposition for strategic analysis to The Gambian
situation? Are we just talking and unwilling to add our two cents to
defeat the dictator and dirimo of kaninlai? Do we want five more years of
evil yahya? Are we sincere in our assault? Are we just talking?
Enough is enough. Let's put our money for a successful investment in a
democratic Gambia. "Empty barrels make the most sound." Let us act now
before it is too late.
Naphiyo,
Comrade ML Jassey-Conteh

As Gambians and concerned friends of Gambia contemplates next years
Presidential Elections in the Gambia, Opposition Political Parties,
Activists, Movements, Human Rights g
Groups, and Civilians yearning for change, had been tinkering of ways that
these various groupings can influence Gambian sociopoliticoeconomic policies.
Since there exist no formal structured and accountable information and
mechanism on such groupings forming coalitions/alliances, the time is ripe
and right for such an undertaking. Granted that, most of the existing Gambian
groupings, especially, those abroad, are disorganized, helpless or anything
in between. This arises out of a lack thereof, of denied, frustrated or,
absent civic mindedness or selfishness.
In order to change this uncanny equation of apathy and disenfranchisement, it
is natural, therefore, that coalitions and alliances be form and formed again
in the never-ending struggle of interest group politics. Granted, that, the
mere revelation that certain unpopular individual/association is/are
involved, might cause an alliance to fail.
Since we all understand what and who our problem[s] is/are, the solution is
not the continual ranting and raving about Yahya Jammeh and not an iota of
well-structured support rendered to the front-line comrades [opposition
political parties, civic and human rights groups, victims of the
military/police machinery], but that of a massive and inclusive outreach of
all concerned Gambians and friends of Gambia, to morally and financially
bankroll the next Presidential Elections, the ultimate option to get rid of
the menace to Gambia and Gambians.
A good suggestion was made to follow the same pattern as "The Massacre Action
Plan" initiated on the G-L, whereby, a central coordinating committee with
contact points around the nook and cranny of Gambians [individuals,
organizations or otherwise] around the globe, would level the
equation/plain-field financially, between Yahya Jammeh/AFPRC/APRC [THIEF-MAN]
compared to UDP, PDOIS and NRP combined.
Perhaps, Alpha Robinson, Soffie, Katim, Karamba, Saul Khan, Ous, Latjor,
Jamila, Ebrima Ceesay, Hamjatta, Jabou, Mr. Private Investigator
[Makievelli-GS], KB, Dr. Saine, Dagmar, Sigga and committee members of
various "Genuine" Anti-Yahya/Pro Gambian Democracy Movements/Organizations,
can linkup and start something rolling.
It's now, or, never. Let's not sit idly by and watch Yahya Jammeh, Babba
Jobe, et al. wreak havoc on our nation, women and children.
