>>>>>
>>>>>Hello Ebrima:
>>>>>
>>>>>You guys on the L, are giving a hell of a time to the
>>>>>APRC regime, these days. And you have to keep it up!!
>>>>>
>>>>>Anyway, three big stories for you today. (1) There is
>>>>>currently a serious behind-the-scene diplomatic
>>>>>tension between the Gambia and Nigeria over
>>>>>allegations that the Gambia and three other unnamed
>>>>>countries in the Subregion, are actually fuelling the
>>>>>ethnic/religious tensions in Nigeria. The State House
>>>>>Imam is in the frame.
>>>>>
>>>>>Ebrima, the tension is such that the Gambia High
>>>>>Commissioner to Abuja was summoned to the Nigeria's
>>>>>Foriegn Office and told pointedly, Abuja's concerns
>>>>>over the issue.
>>>>>
>>>>>Nigerian intelligence said that the late Sani Abacha's
>>>>>cronies, including Yaya Jammeh, are still bent on
>>>>>destablising Nigeria, so that they can continue to lay
>>>>>their hands on that country's oil wealth.
>>>>>
>>>>>So, no wonder for the last two Heads of States Summits
>>>>>held in Abuja, Nigeria, Yaya Jammeh delibrately
>>>>>refused to attend, fearing, of course, that Obasanjo
>>>>>will raise the issue.
>>>>>
>>>>>Also, don't forget Jammeh was the first president to
>>>>>endorse the late Sani Abacha's demand that Nigerian
>>>>>dissidents, opposed to his (Sani) rule outside
>>>>>Nigeria, should be arrested whenever they visited any
>>>>>of the countries in West Africa.
>>>>>
>>>>>So, given the fact President Obsanjo was one of those
>>>>>people who were critical of Abacha at the time, Jammeh
>>>>>is therefore having a problem in facing him.
>>>>>
>>>>>(2) The President (Jammeh) has cancelled his planned
>>>>>trip to Senegal and Mauritania today Friday, following
>>>>>reports in Senegal that President Wade was not ready
>>>>>to receive him but instead a very Junior Minister was
>>>>>assigned to meet him (Jammeh) to discuss that
>>>>>country's border crisis with Mauritania.
>>>>>
>>>>>Yaya Jammeh, knowing the type he is, a laughable
>>>>>maron, wants to mediate in this crisis, but Abdoulaye
>>>>>Wade is treating him like a toddler.
>>>>>
>>>>>(3) For your information, it is not only Tamsir Jallow
>>>>>and Sulayman Massaneh Ceesay who are unhappy in the
>>>>>Jammeh camp, but even Edward Singhateh and a few
>>>>>others are also unhappy.
>>>>>
>>>>>I will send all their names later. Edward's problem
>>>>>with Yaya Jammeh is that he ( Edward) is very much
>>>>>opposed to the idea of the revival of the July 22
>>>>>movement and turning them into an APRC's youth action
>>>>>group.
>>>>>
>>>>>He, Edward, believes that this will do no good to the
>>>>>Gambia's alreadly bad image. He is also opposed to the
>>>>>apparent hijacking of the regime by Baba Jobe and a
>>>>>few
>>>>>businessmen in the country.
>>>>>
>>>>>Now, Yaya Jammeh, because of the type of man he is,
>>>>>saw this act by Edward as a betrayal and for four
>>>>>months now, Edward Singhateh has not been receiving
>>>>>his usual or full salary.
>>>>>
>>>>>Instead, two-third of his salary is directly being
>>>>>paid to Yaya Jammeh to settle a loan that Edward was
>>>>>said to have taken from him during the transition
>>>>>period.
>>>>>
>>>>>The story is that there was a kick-back given to
>>>>>Edward following the recognition of Taiwan by Gambia
>>>>>as a State. All Council members in then AFPRC were
>>>>>supposed to be given some kick backs, in addition to
>>>>>the US$35 million dollars given to them.
>>>>>
>>>>>But the whole sum Edward got from Taiwan was never
>>>>>revealed to Yaya Jammeh and, upon realising this
>>>>>subsequently, he, Jammeh, urged Singhateh to pay the
>>>>>balance to him personally (Jammeh) in the form of a
>>>>>loan.
>>>>>
>>>>>And Edward started to pay Jammeh, but when Edward
>>>>>could not qualify for the vice president post because
>>>>>of his age at the time, Yaya Jammeh symphathised him
>>>>>and told him to "forget the repayment of the loan
>>>>>thing".
>>>>>
>>>>>Now, Edward has since been asked once again by Jammeh
>>>>>to pay him back, and Edward is paying him because Yaya
>>>>>Jammeh sees him (Edu) as a betrayer. So something is
>>>>>brewing between these two men, and this is why you
>>>>>guys on Gambia-L should continue the pressures.
>>>>>
>>>>>By the way, I was very angry with you the last time,
>>>>>in your argument with Edi Sidibeh, because you nearly
>>>>>revealed your sources.
>>>>>
>>>>>Don't mind these jesters! They are only trying to
>>>>>deviate the real issue. Anyway, I have now forgiven
>>>>>you because you have upgraded (laugh).
>>>>>
>>>>>Thanks!
