Jabou,
 Thanks a lot for putting the chunk of our dilemma in layman's term, and
I hope the oppositions are taking note. Because while the opposition
parties are frantically trying to offer compromise solutions(such free and
fair elections), Jammeh and his cohorts have decided on a fait accompli.
Their message is very clear. They have no plans to leave office period.
Perhaps it's time the oppossition change their alarm clock's setting from
SNOOZE to ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Reality check certainly warrants a revisit. We
must remain vigilant but this 'Jammeh Mess' necessitates swift and drastic
measures. Let's be honest!

His every move so far, coupled with the amazingly arrogant statements by some
members of his government is ample evidence of this. His is not an
administration that measures their achievements by how well they are able to
assess the needs, problems and challenges facing our nation, and the efforts
and expertise they use to solve these problems and challenges. Rather, it is
an administration whose every waking hour, every ounce of energy, every move,
 is spent on formulating strategies on how they can stay in office, and how
they can murder, maim and eliminate anyone who does not lend a blind eye and
unmindful support to their schemes.

Therefore, they address only their plans, unmindful of the wishes of those
they should represent, as if the offices they snatched are an  inheriatnce
they will hold for life. They never once consider that government belongs to
the people, and it is they who choose representatives, and it is they who
will ultimately decide who infact represents them. Those who are heedless of
this fact will ultimately learn the bare facts the very hard way, and this
situation is no exception.
