“JAMMEH’S STATEMENT INFLUENCED THE RESULTS” Sheikh Lewis of the International Society for Human Right is of the opinion that President Jammeh’s statement that he will not develop constituencies that vote for the opposition, has influenced the outcome of the elections.
Mr. Lewis made this statement during a debriefing session organised by the Independent Electoral Commission at the Kairaba Beach Hotel on Saturday. Presenting his institution’s preliminary report on it’s observation of the election, Lewis said this statement by the president was made on election day. “He is a president for all of us. We don’t have a president for development and a president for non development. He should bring development for all of us,” he remarked.
He said Jammeh has a household name and his comments helped the APRC candidates to defeat their opponents. He noted that the low voter turn out is a clear indication of that fact that the APRC candidates could not convince their supporters to come out and vote for them. He said it is Jammeh who won the elections and not the candidates.
He commended the police for carrying out their election duties in a professional manner. He noted that the National Assembly elections were conducted in an orderly manner. According to him, the elections were free and fair.

IF YOU LIVE IN A GLASS HOUSE DONT THROW STONES Mr. Lewis. It is attimes pathetic if the likes of Sheik Lewis are given such an important mantle (Human Rights), Sheik a notorious 419er(Nigerian Criminal Code for Fraud) has no morality left to even educate Jammeh.
Sheikh had been brought before the courts many times for dubing unsuspecting Gambian youths wanting to travel to Europe by promisng them visas. Is this man a role model? The Pot calling Kettle black. Please give us a break and allow the credible to give us words of wisdom. |
