Demba, I didn't say there is nothing to it but just to boycot. I did not also suggest what anyone should do after they boycot anything. That is beyond my purview in as much as election boycots go. If you determine an election not to be worth contesting, you're best advised to boycot such election. What you do after you boycot is entirely up to you Demba. But simply because you do not know or haven't figured out what to do after you boycot something is immaterial to your decision to boycot or not to boycot. Demba I got a question for you: And it is not a trick question; If your friend asks you to accompany him/her while he robs a bank so you can be his lookout for the cops, and for that you'd get paid 1/2 of the heist. Are you gonna boycot your friend or are you gonna try to figure out where you're gonna get half of the heist's worth elsewhere before you boycot? You only have a week to make up your mind you know. We ain't got all year. And we will not postpone our plans for the heist. What're you gonna do Demba? And please don't tell me you're gonna tell us in a week's time. Boycotting us has far-reaching consequences - up to a million dollars' worth of consequences. And if you decide to boycot us what are your strategies for follow-through??? Haruna. See what I say about you being funny when you wanna be? Demba, I'll have PDOIS make you a campaign strategist if you answer this question to my satisfaction. And don't tell me you don't wanna be anybody's campaign strategist. That's not the point. -----Original Message----- From: Demba Baldeh <[log in to unmask]> To: GAMBIA-L <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Mon, Mar 12, 2012 10:33 am Subject: Re: [G_L] GAMBIA: OPPOSITION PARTIES CALL FOR POSTPONEMENT IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE IN GENUINE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY ELECTIONS Boycotting elections have far reaching consequences Haruna..

Boycotting elections does not have anything to do with what you will or wont do thereafter. For elections, you decide to either contest or not to contest based on your assessment. It has nothing to do with whether you go jump-roping or swimming thereafter. For political parties who boycot elections, they are always free to do whatever they desire after that decision. They have a party to run you know!!!!!!!!!!!! Muhammad friggin Abdallah! If you are a political party who boycotted an election and don't know what to do thereafter, you may want to reconsider your occupation in life. Haruna. -----Original Message----- From: Demba Baldeh <[log in to unmask]> To: GAMBIA-L <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Sun, Mar 11, 2012 12:19 pm Subject: Re: [G_L] GAMBIA: OPPOSITION PARTIES CALL FOR POSTPONEMENT IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE IN GENUINE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY ELECTIONS Well, boycotting elections is the easy part... What is the strategy there after? You boycott the elections and now What? When you can't see eye to eye on almost anything??????? I still think the idea is not a well thoughtout decision... thus the reason everyone is scrambling for their own way...

NRP is also entitled to the freedom of choice for engagement. At all times. If any individual or political party feels they desire to compete in the NA elections, I encourage them to do so. However if they should feel they ought not compete in those elections, I encourage them to boycot. For my part, I think they should all boycot the elections, and let the APRC contest them alone if they so desire.

This is why, he cannot put to bed the suspicion people have of him with the Dictator." Suntou Suntou: Hamat is no Jammeh's play book or or payroll. Hamat is bankrolled by one corrupt Nigerian chief for whom he has to run elections or break a contract/agreement. So, by hook or by crook Hamat has to "do an election" unless IEC decides to cancel. Hamat can shout all he wants on Freedom and say arrogant stuff like "I care less what people say." What kind of politician will talk like that? Is this guy for real - well I know, he already has his pockets full so he has to act the fool. -Laye ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ -- "Be the change you want to see in the World" ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interfaceat: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-lTo contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to:[log in to unmask]¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interfaceat: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-lTo contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to:[log in to unmask]¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interfaceat: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-lTo contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to:[log in to unmask]¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
