Presidential tour postponed again    Written by Pa Malick Faye    Monday, 13 June 2005 The president’s annual meet the people’s tour which had been rescheduled to commence today, has been postponed again till next month.
According to official sources, the tour will now take place in early July; and the official date for its commencement to be announced later.

This is the second time this year, when the tour had been postponed. It was first slated for May, but postponed as it coincided with the African U-17 championship, which was hosted and won by The Gambia.

The tour, a constitutional mandate, gives the president the opportunity to see developments in the provinces and hold discussions with the rural folk.

Has this ever happened during Jawara's era? Is this not another clear indication that The Gambia is going through serious security and political issues? How can anyone even think that the U-17 match made Jammeh postpone the second leg? If there was no security related issue Jammeh would have ended the Meet the People Tour at Bakau stadium and then that would have coincided with the u-17 winning match!

Sure he would have.

In a seperate incident Students were warned by Jammeh's lady spokes person to compare themselves with their counter parts in Ivory Coast.Look at what Justice Sam wrote in his latest email after what took place in Nianija.Does FJC's speech not send a signal here? That Yahya losing 2006 means civil war?
