Professor Lamin Keita is a Gambian who teaches in the United States. He said the 2026 presidential elections in Gambia are very important. Opposition parties have a big chance to change their plans.

Prof Keita thinks the opposition groups need to stop playing politics for their benefit. This has made people not trust them in the past. Instead, they should focus on really connecting with voters and working together against the problems Gambia faces.

"We, as Gambians, have a duty to each other," Keita said. The government has not done a good job on many issues. These include making a new constitution, having fair elections, fighting corruption, fixing the economy, and improving healthcare. "Gambia must come first. Our opposition needs to think hard about these things."

Keita believes the opposition has to start by communicating clearly. People are tired of politicians changing their minds and making promises they don't keep. The opposition needs to have a strong platform based on real values, not just what will help them win.

According to Keita, working together is also key for the opposition. If they are divided, the ruling NPP party can easily beat them. But if opposition parties join forces, they can push for important reforms. These reforms could change elections, healthcare, and the constitution.
