Thanks Mr. Jassey, please tell me where the counting was stopped for about
an hour? Was this over the radio or at a counting center? How did you know
the condition of Gibril Robert on counting day?
Yes, counting could be stopped for more than an hour if ballot boxes were
not turn in. Remember you cannot begin counting until all the  ballot boxes
from a constituency are received and fully inspected by counting agents and
election officials.This really takes time because all the 200 seals used in
Fulladu west must be verified. But still i want to know where counting was
stop for an hour if you are telling the truth.
I do agree with you that the opposition needs to unite to win Jammeh but i
am very optimistic that UDP can make it alone.
Finally i  want to let you know that i am not an APRC sympathize. All i am
trying to say is that voting and counting were not rigged during the last
presidential election. Of course the campaign was definately not fair!
Mr. Jassey, it is important to tell the truth even if i don't like Jammeh.
I am LAMIN MANNEH not Marenah
Cheers
Lamin PF Manneh
