Lets just hope things work the way we want. Jammeh and his Criminal enterprise are terrible; as far as I’m concerned his Administration is a total failure. Ranging from:

Health, Education, Agriculture, Defence, and the Economy.

People can hardly get the proper medical attention and medication in our health centres. Even the RVH, which is supposed to be the number one Hospital in the country, is on constant occasions running out of drugs. And unfortunately they changed its name now calling it a teaching hospital.

The conditions there are a tragedy; Poor conditions, too many mosquitoes. Just imagine, in your sick bed u have to be struggling with hand-full of these.

The standard of education has deteriorated over the years. Students hardly do well in exams; both Grade 9 and grade 12. Especially in important areas like Mathematics and English Language. These need urgent attention, instead all Jammeh does is give huge sums from his “ill gotten wealth” to these Schools for them to make parties. Is this sensible?

Farmers are also going through hard times, as a result of the general incompetence of the agricultural sector.

Let’s visit defence; On how many occasions do people in the boarder provinces experience raids by gangs from neighbouring Senegal, The robberies at Brikama and the Albert market, which is situated at the nostrils of what we call our state house, the marine and state guards` headquarters which are the basis of our very security as far as the capital is concerned.

Nothing is being done to arrest these.

The economy is also another tragedy, with prices of commodities sky-rocketing on a constant daily basis. Where do we head to if these are allowed to continue.

Should we continue to leave our state affairs to be ran in such a reckless and carefree manner, by these beasts and criminals? Surely no!



HOW DO WE GET RID OF SUCH?

This is a question that we think we are close to finding an answer to, when we are not. NADD, of what it comprise of, cannot unseat Jammeh in a “Simple Majority Ballot System”. That’s the fact. I for one cannot imagine, how people would entrust their votes in a presidential election, to a party like NADD, with members of the Former PPP Regime. If Jammeh is to be get rid of because he’s corrupt, how about PPP elements? Their style of politics is no secret to any. You think Gambians are fools! They are not! The PPP and all that have any to do with them should be dumped out of the way in Gambian politics. What good do any of them deserve? They led nowhere. For 30 good years; Bad roads, Corruption, Election rigging and intimidation, Tribalism in politics, No Sign of bright future for Gambia at all. Everything was Stagnant. Are you saying that these people deserve to be in Government again? Even if they are not going to do the same, they still don’t deserve to be there.

 Let them give chance to others, stay out of active politics and pledge their supports for “This opposition force” Gambians longed for.

With people like Halifa and others, NADD would have stood a better chance of sweeping Jammeh away if; These “PPP THIEVES AND CROOKS” were not part of it. Otherwise “NADD – Accept my sympathy” “The Ass-hole” is going to sweep the Polls, Come 2006.

Any NADD Presidential Candidate Will Succeed in Flushing Jammeh out of
Power -Says UDP Leader's Daughter
BY PA NDERRY M'BAI & BUBACARR CEESAY

October 11, 2005
"Because there is growing demand for change and i respect all of them for
putting up the fight all these years as members of different opposition
parties. I think whoever is selected by NADD as their presidential
candidate will succeed in getting Jammeh out of power." Those were the
words of Mariama Darboe Janneh, daughter of leader of the opposition
United Democratic Party, who is residing in Texas here in the United
States.

Mrs. Darboe Janneh speaking in an exclusive interview with the ALLGAMBIAN
online Newspaper, said NADD is in good shape and it is just a matter of
time for Jammeh to be flushed out of office. She told The ALLGAMBIAN that
come 2006, NADD'S flag bearer will take charge of the affairs of The
Gambian state, as she predicted the down fall of President Jammeh.

Mrs. Darboe Janneh who bagged a Master's degree in Public Health said she
will support any NADD Presidential flag bearer to unseat Jammeh from
power.

Answering to the questions as to whether his father lawyer Darboe could be
a good Presidential candidate for The Gambia, the Hiv/Aids specialist who
sounded optimistic was quick to respond in the affirmative "Yes, yes. He
takes good care of us his family and I'm sure The Gambia would be lucky to
have such a selfless and loving person to be the head of the country. I'm
sure he will treat all Gambians equally like he does to his family. I
supported him since 1996 and I will continue to support him. I will
support anything that will get Yahya Jammeh out of state house and I
support NADD."

Reacting to Jammeh's recent rantings, in which he Jammeh reportedly
threatened to take the life of lawyer Darboe following his acquittal on a
murder charge, Mrs. Darboe Janneh told The ALLGAMBIAN that such threats
coming from Jammeh "are indeed serious and cannot be taken lightly."Of
course, I'm concerned about the said threats against my father. I know my
father is in politics for the right reasons. These threats are not going
to discourage me, because I know he is fighting for the right thing." she
maintains.
