Joe Sambou,
You are exactly right, and i have also been wondering the same thing. If we
can notice and ask these questions, what about the opposition parties? I know
Tombong mentioned that the UDP has complained and the IEC was investigating,
which is kind of like asking the wolf to guard the sheep if you ask me. At
any rate, we need to hear it from the horse's mouth as you have pointed out.
We definitely deserve that much, as do the people who lent their support to
the opposition parties during this election.
It is important to note what transpired because hopefully, as someone has
told me,lessons leant from 2001 elections can help in the Partiamentary
elections in
February and future elections if people are paying attention, that is.
