Good for them (GMC) . No prevarification. Succinct and to the point. What is the point of writing letters outlining the constitutionality or lack thereof of yahya's barbaric actions? He has a ton of lawyers on payroll should he need legal advice. These guys (group of 6) now 5 need to get a new tack. Writing letters to Yahya is so played out. It is rather comical if the situation is not so dire.

| GMC DISSOCIATES ITSELF FROM G6 LETTER TO THE AUTHORITIES Let me express that GMC is a founder member of The Group of 6 opposition Parties (otherwise known as G6). We shall remain engaged within this voluntary framework, working with our colleagues in the opposition. We have participated at all G6 sessions, and we intend to continue to do so in the future. We have no intention of withdrawing from G6 unless circumstances require a review of the relevance of our continuing membership in the Group. If such a need emerged, we shall not hesitate to act and make our views public. On the issue of the recent letter meant for the authorities on the death penalty circulating online, GMC wishes to make it known crystal clear that as much as we remain part of the G6 and ready to continue to work on common issues, we do not subscribe to the contents of the said letter. It does not carry our signature or endorsement. We have no part to do with it. GMC had expressed its views publicly in the media and during consultations with diplomatic representatives of the international community on both the death penalty and the executions. We do not see the logic of writing to the National Assembly or Yaya Jammeh again on this issue. We view it as the victim engaging or seeking help from his wicked tormentor. The letter does not bear our mark, and G6 does not speak for GMC in this instance. GMC will not engage the regime on the death penalty. Our contention is that the death penalty had legally expired by effluxion of time fifteen years ago, and what happened on the 27th of August 2012 was murder most foul. We shall continue to work with Gambians at home and around the world, the international community and the coalition of the willing in legitimately accelerating the end of the brutal regime in Banjul, and subjecting it to international justice.
