The women’s wing of the main opposition United Democratic Party under the leadership of Aji Sukaina Kah on Friday, 29th July 2011 concluded the first leg of their nation-wide tour which began in Barra in the North Bank Region and concluded in the Niani District of the Central River Region.

The entourage visited many villages in Nuimi, Baddibou and Sabach Sanjal and were accorded with warm reception amidst thunderous clapping and Singing.

During the tour, Aji Sukiana Kah, the group’s president and Aji Yamu Secka, the vice president, both seized the opportunity to dismiss president Jammeh's claim that neither election nor coup can remove him from power as a desperate attempt to scare-off women from voting against him massively. They advised the women folk not to pay attention such misguided comments. If Jammeh believes in that claim, why is he out campaigning for votes? Aji Sukai queried.

She also told the crowds to be mindful of Jammeh’s tribal politics as he is hell-bent on pitting Gambian tribes against one another and thereby endangering the peace and tranquillity we have always enjoyed as a nation and people and also the harmony that has always existed among Gambian tribes. She urged the women to use their robust networks to defuse any such treacherous plots in order to save the future of their children and country.

She thanked the UDP leader, Alhagi Ousainu Darboe, for facilitating the tour and UDP UK and USA for the sponsorship. The tour which was brought to a halt due to the Holy month of Ramadan, will resume immediately after the Koriteh Prayers.

Ms. Aji Yamu Secka, the group’s Vice President, describe the jubilant mood of the villagers as a sign of Gambian women being tired of living in a state of fear and APRC’s endless false promises.

A full report on the tour will be made available soon.

Good input there Nyarikangbanna:

You missed one thing Kitabul Arerr ,the date:

"United Democratic Party Manifesto- 2006/07"

No changes in almost 5 years ? can't believe that can you ? OK it's probably a website error put up the wrong out of date information.Easy thing to do I suppose when there are 13 pages,each with that date on the top.

Kitabul Arerr, State House website is AKA APRC. From the last time of checking, there is no distinction. Should you require news about APRC, try State House or Observer. Both are reliable reference points.

I understand that, I was pointing out that credability ,seriousness and care. appear not to been in the forefront of their mind ,and with a new dedicated website,I should have thought that they would at least have made some modifications due to the passing of 5 years when things have undoubtedly changed in the world.

Toubab, the new manifesto will be updated soon as our technical committee is already done with their review. However, we have uploaded an updated policy outline which though not a manifesto articulated the fundamental policy objectives of the United Democratic Party.

Thanks
