Open letter to the opposition parties and Diaspora groups: The need for a national conference to pave way for post-jammeh era while Gambia is under its current state of emergency

By Seedy Ceesay

After 19 years of Jammeh’s rule, Gambians and non-Gambians alike have seen the total destruction of the social and economic fabric of our beloved country, needless to mention the daily abuses of the rights and the freedoms of the people of The Gambia.

In the wake of Dr. SeidatJobe’s interview on Freedom Radio when he spoke of the array of choices of the transitional leadership in the post-Jammeh era, it’s important that one takes stock and puts aside our differences,whether political or non-political, and open themselves up for an honest and sincere debate. As our people at home are going through trauma on a consistent basis, including loss of lives and their properties, it is incumbent upon every single Gambian to come to terms with what’s happening in our country.
