What is going on within the UDP is the same color of Waa surfacing. This is
who Waa is and what he is all about. The UDP has been at the verge of
collapsing since it boycotted the NAM elections. I would hate to say I knew
so, but have some of us not pointed it out here some time ago?
If I can guess right, I am predicting that Waa will try to form his own
party which will become a disaster and Darboe will give up on politics. What
he might do, I cannot guess.
On the fact that the UDP is cash stranded, should be known. There was never
any funds, and there has never been any funds for any opposition in the
Gambia. This should have been corrected over 30 years ago to make sure
opposition parties get some funds from the government. If not, it is always
going to be very difficult to even have a viable opposition.
A viable opposition, I think the UDP has failed to be since it merged with
defunct parties of the first Republic. This is certainly arguable. The UDP
problem is not only financial, it has a lot to do with the way with the
party was built on. Any party built on personnel and not principles is bound
to fail. Any party built on malaise is bound not to succeed for sooner or
later, its weaknesses will be found. And this is why Waa can NEVER form or
even be part of any successful party. He has always been siding with "my
enemies' foes are my friends'."
