What is wrong with UDP memebers? Today , I have been vindicated  for the 
comments I made against some UDP members because of their actions towards their 
perceived rivals . My comment was met with sharp criticism by some so call UPD 
die-hearts. 


However, today what we have witness is total disarray within the party members. 
You do not need to be a rocket scientist to know what be-fold the status of the 
party. The comments, from Falaye, Lamin R. Darboe ,Dibba, Musa , Mballow and the 
latest from Pa Saikou speak volumes of what awaits UDP. 


I stated it earlier that their must be an organized structure within the party 
level and its external wings. Not everybody can jump and claim himself as a 
party warrior  or family member of the party .This gives you the audacity and 
license to speak on behalf of UDP. Frankly, speaking, I for one will not vote 
for such a party because it will be fool-hardy on my side , after fully known 
the activities, approaches and intentions of  such  people. To be more direct, 
those family members and their close associate will surely be the controller of 
the party when they come to the power.It is an open secrete also that their 
actions veritably epitomized by venting  their anger out even to the extent of 
attacking media outlets that critiques the wrongs of the party. If we want to 
change the present status of  our country's democratization process let it be a 
genuine change and changes that will never be a replica of  APRC and the PPP. I 
was really touched by Pa Saikou's speaks. 


Please, read Pa Saikou's interview with Freedomnews below.

Is The UDP On The Path To Total Destruction?
UDP New York Coordinator Pa Saikou Kujabi Disowns UDP USA Chapter—Saying It's 
Not The Party’s Official USA Chapter
Banjul, The Gambia—Gambia’s main opposition United Democratic Party (UDP) is 
seemingly heading towardsthe path of total destruction with its supporters in 
the United States issuing mixed messages, characterized by accusations, and 
counter accusations against folks perceived to be critical of the party’s 
leader. First to break ranks with the party was the New York City based UDP 
strong supporter Falai Baldeh, who demanded that the leader of the party 
Ousainanou Darboe should step aside, and give chance to young dynamic Gambians 
to lead the UDP since he Darboe is not willing to confront the dictator. Well 
Falai’s statement doesn’t go down well with the party’s US External Wing, who 
grilled him  for daring to speak out in the open without formal consultations.

Surprisingly, the UDP Coordinator in New York Pa Saikou Kujabi, said he was 
never consulted by what he calls the so called UDP USA Chapter.  Mr. Kujabi said 
there is only one UDP Chapter in New York, and the entire United States.  He 
cautioned that the views expressed by the group claiming to be representing the 
UDP party in the US,   do not necessarily represent  the views of the New York 
Branch. For more on this story, tuned onto Freedom Radio, where Mr. Kujabi 
openly disowned the UDP USA Chapter saying that they have no affiliation with 
the party’s New York Branch. He strongly condemned the press releases issued in 
the name of the Party.
