Editorial: Have Gambians Betrayed Waa Juwara???
The opposition NDAM has been buried to the dustbin of history. The Party which claimed that it was out to redeem The Gambia from political decadence, maladministration, injustices and oppression had betrayed all its principles it stood for. The death of NDAM has been announced with Waa Juwara joining the Ruling APRC. The party’s past struggle against the Jammeh leadership has been rendered counterproductive following this unilateral decision from Juwara to part with his colleagues. We say sorry to NDAM’S External Wing. Juwara has done it again!!! A buried truth shall rise again!! The Freedom Newspaper has been vindicated.

JUWARA AND HALAKE,BIRDS OF THE SAME FEATHERS OR WOLFS OF THE SAME TAILS FLOCKS TOGETHER.
Its up finally,the lion has indeed eaten the grass.Mbarodi has thrown the towel and together with Halake has eaten his own feaces.In his shameless defection speech across the sofaniama Bolong in Katamina,he shamelessly denounced his own criticisms attributing his stunt insults to yahya Jammeh and the people of the Gambia to being the “peopaganda Secretary of the Opposition”.Laughable indeed!! indeed laughable;this is Juwara speaking,one cannot fathom.Juwara has let down the whole nation and his family,I don’t know why Pa Manneh should have risked being arrested for being an errand boy of this non person,this devil ish individual and this wolf in sheep’s clothing.What else can Juwara gain anew after being commissioner of all five provincial divisions of the country,different government portfolios etc.Simply nothing.

Why Yahya Jammeh Defeated the PPP and How He Beats the Opposition -The Watchman. Tuesday, May 13, 2008 (621 reads)
Why Yahya Jammeh Defeated the PPP and How He Beats the Opposition -The Watchman.
There has been a lot of chatter lately, by Gambian voices on the internet, about the food hardships being encountered by Gambia's wretched populace and how its grossly inept mass murderer Yahya Jammeh, gives not a whit about who starves or who gets to scavenge or who feasts. The obvious waste of talented commentary is enunciated by the fact that the global food crisis is the topic du jour for most news outlets. This phenomenon is not unique to our beloved country. Why give it saturated coverage at the expense of more strategic concerns? While others, some journalists, politcal figures and intellectuals to be exact, have been fretting about the price of commodities and opining on all forms of available media, the butcher of Banjul has gone about willfully consolidating his influence base and gearing up for any final assault on his monopoly on the reins of power. This avalanche while not impossible will likely not materialize. Yahya Jammeh's opposition is in disarray and most tragically, too timid to match its opponent in intensity.

Gambian Journalists meet government to make peace state house daily paper calls them Western Stooges-VP Njie Saidy ridiculed!
By Hammadi Maasinah
In our country we have a senseless failure of an Ethiopian-terrorist using the state-owned media to promote his agenda. All this is being done under the watch of President Jammeh who is searching for every possible means to blame his failures on others!
Gambian journalists who have been victims of a deadly state-sponsored security machine decided to at least stay “versatile” therefore opened the doors of dialogue.
