>>>disrupt the peace on our side should be eliminated. Our self defence was

>>>came from a personality for whom the majority in the student leadership
>>>had
>>>tremendous respect for, but also because we had a meeting with her slated

>>>lady;
>>>and a mother, she could have been sympathetic to our course with regards
>>>the
>>>rape case of the thirteen year old school girl.
>>>We have no doubt that the VP's own children were made to feel very
>>>uncomfortable by her infamous statement. However, if she feels this is
>>>the
>>>right time to resign and make amends for her wrongs to Gambians in
>>>general
>>>and Gambian students in particular, she should feel free to do so.
>>>Whatever
>>>it takes, it would be  better for her to be at peace with Gambians, than
>>>be
>>>part of a political leadership, which has demonized itself so badly
>>>through
>>>banditry, barbarity, brutality, criminality, incompetence and bad
>>>governance, that its very existence is becoming more and more untenable
>>>day
>>>in day out. But leaving the Jammeh goverment is an option which she will
>>>have to make on her own; just as forgiving her for the wrongs she did to
>>>us
>>>in the execution of her responsibilities is a matter for the souvereign
