Mambuna,
I am still finding it difficult to understand  why you think Ceesay should
have treat this as a personal matter with Taal's children.Just try once again
and re-read these peoples previous postings on the matter and you will see
how and why they failed to direct there reactions to the actual author of the
said story.Remember Ceesay made it abundantly clear that his source got the
story from the Observer  and all he did was post it to the L  for all.IN FACT
Ceesay has in an earlier posting showed his respect  and admiration for Mr
TAAL's academic and diplomatic achivements as a seasoned diplomat---and more
so his appreciation of  Mr Taal's invitation to lunch eventhough he wasn't
able to go(ivory coast)

CEESAY was only doing his work as a journalist, the question whether he would
report such stories if the case involves one of his immediate family members
?My answer is yes he sure will knowing very well the person he his.
Ceesay is not the type you  and the Taal family are trying to accuse him
of.The Taal family has every right to defend their father  but in doing so
let them be mindful."MY father can teach your father."or thinking of a
possible lawsuit against Ceesay in this case will not help either.Why not
Alieu B Sowe and the Observer?

My brother lets continue on the struggle ,this is part and parcel of the
numerous problems  created by the Jammeh regime so lets work and get rid of
him by any means .
