Gambians
started lining up in polling stations as early 7 o'clock. Voters lined
up patiently while waiting to cast their votes. United Democratic
Leader Ousainou Darboe was escorted by jubilant party supporters to
vote at the Sabina polling station in Fajara. Speaking to
reporters Darboe shortly casting his vote sounded optimistic of
sweeping polls if the elections went free and fair. Accompanied by a
cheering crowd Darboe maintains that it was time for a regime change in
the Gambia and was confident of defeating his opponent President
Jammeh. NADD'S Halifa Sallah voted in Serre-Kunda where he escorted by
party supporters. Like Darboe, Sallah was also equally confident of
winning the elections. Sallah's supporters openly pledged their support
for the politician while waiting for Sallah to cash his vote. For
Yahya Jammeh, he voted in Banjul, where he insists that no coups or
elections can remove him from power. The Gambian leader has openly told
Gambians that whether they voted for him or not he was here to rule the
tiny West African country for another decades. Shortly after casting
his vote, Jammeh quickly left and later settled at the state house
where he is waiting to hear the announcement of the results. In one of
his political rallies, prior to the voting Jammeh issued a warning
to Gambians. He says he has been very patience with Gambians for the past 12 years,
but vows to deal with his opponents when he comes back to power.
Jammeh told his supporters that he will not tolerate no nonsense from
anybody while he insisting that he will have zero tolerance for his
opponents.

At Talinding Kujang a scuffle broke out in one of the
polling stations when opposition polling agents tried to stop the APRC's so
called voters whose names never appeared on the IEC main register and
counterfoil paper. The APRC voters forced their way into the voting
ground where the IEC officials allowed them to vote. They beat their
chest and vowed to vote come what may. In the end the IEC officer on the ground
allowed them to vote even though they were undocumented. |
