TOO MANY COOKS IN THE GAMBIA’S KITCHEN

Professor Mballow, Social and Political analyst

27th December, 2025.

In The Gambia’s opposition, a familiar challenge brews: too many leaders, too little unity. Every politician wants to be president – a recipe for disaster in 2026.

Why This Hurts The Gambia:

Divided Support: Splintered opposition = easier NPP win.

Wasted Resources: Energy spent on internal fights, not solving issues.

Voter Fatigue: Gambians wary of “same faces” drama.

The Fix:

One Strong Candidate: Unite behind a leader with broad appeal.

Shared Vision: Prioritize The Gambia’s future, not personal ambition.

Coalition of Equals: Collaborate, don’t compete.

The Gambia needs a leader, not a leadership contest.

Urging all the opposition to put the Gambia above their egos.
