Kebba, the NADD three better not let their guard down. This is the reason
why Africa, per capita, has more dictators in the world today. Jammeh lied
to his teeth and falsely accused NADD for creating problems between Gambia
and Senegal, then turns around and lull the senile Wade to sleep, brought
the criminal in Paul to detain them, and now Obasanjo to the rescue, so,
Jammeh can have an exit, scot free. That should be unacceptable and I hope
that NADD braces itself for a future assault by Yaya. These lies should be
part of the 2006 campaign to expose the criminal that is Jammeh. Gambia
must be free from Yaya and he cannot stop NADD from achieving that.
