OJ Clarifies
  By Abdoulie G. Gibba
  Omar Amadou Jallow (alias O J), has given a vivid picture of why he was absent during the nomination of Halifa Sallah as the presidential candidate for the National Alliance for Democracy and Development (NADD).
  Jallow’s statement came on the heels of speculation that he has abandoned NADD. He said he was stricken by illness and was hospitalized. Jallow pointed out that he still supports Halifa Sallah as the candidate of NADD. OJ made these statements on Friday 1st September at his residence in Pipeline during an interview with this reporter. OJ indicated that NADD is a unifying factor and has the solution to the ills created by the APRC during its twelve years of misrule. He pointed out that in the Memorandum of Understanding establishing NADD which he is a signatory, it is stipulated that NADD would put in place constitutional and legal instruments as well as democratic institutions and practices covering all areas of state administration and management so as to put an end to self perpetuating rule which is the characteristic of the APRC rule. OJ said NADD is committed to create an economic environment that will ensure the development of the productive base of the economy and
 maximize economic growth, employment and general welfare of the youth and women.
  This OJ said, is necessary to put an end to the suffering of the Gambian people. He asserted that the interview Halifa granted to the journalists after the nomination showed the supremacy of the NADD candidate over the two candidates. OJ pointed out that the interview showed that Halifa Sallah possesses all the qualities of the type of leader the Gambia needs under these circumstances.
  He finally called on all Gambians at home and abroad regardless of tribe, religion, political affiliation or place of origin to give their total support to Halifa Sallah the NADD presidential candidate.
