OPERATION MBOR MBOR!The Democratic Union of Gambian Activists – DUGA is conducting a peaceful taking over of the Embassy of The Gambia under the code name of Operation “MBOR MBOR”, as a continuation of our protest at the 68th session of the U.N General Assembly in New York City against the repressive Jammeh regime. This escalated act of resistance against tyranny is to heighten the fighting capacity of Gambians and diminish the element of fear that has paralyzed our national consciousness against repression.For 19 long years, the brutish ignorance of the Jammeh regime prevailed over our lives, all in the absence of ORGANIZATION. The founding of DUGA has broken the cycle of fighting in isolation. Now we are organized and determined to take our beloved gambia back from the clutches of tyranny and build a proud future Gambia. Join us in protest against Jammeh’s barbaric policies against homosexuals, his reactionary intent to sow trabalism and his calculated greed, while hiding behind his hypocritical religious outfits.When: Wednesday October 9, 2013Where: 2233 Wisconsin Avenue NWWashington DCTime: 11:00 am – 2:00 pmJAMMEH MUST GO!WE DEMAND:1.
