Hallo Ebrima and G-Lers,

Greetings to you and your sources.
Ebrima, Last night a friend of mine, Bubacarr Sankanu ( I think you know
him) call me from the Democratic Republic of the Congo where he is on a
three-month consultancy work on Media and Public Relations Management. He
told me to exteng greeting to all fellow Gambians on the G-L , at home in
Gambia and abroad.

He said as he sttled for action in DRC ,he was confronted by many Congolese
who asked about "Mobutu's Gold deposited near the Banjul International
Airport". He said he could not give any immediate answer "without contacting
fellow Gambians who might have heard of this strange development in 1997/8".
It was reported that German channel 2 TV ZDF reported that Mobut's Gold was
found in The Gambia but Yahya Jammeh said it was Zambia not Gambia. But many
Congolese in Kinshasa believe it is "Gambia".

Can you, your sources or any one provide information on this?
Thanky you and greetings from Bubacarr Sankanu.

Yours sincerely,

M.Muhammed T.Susso
Hamburg
Germany

>>Ebrima,
>>Please inform Mansour Ceesay that the success of our struggle will come on
>>the shoulders of our women folk.  The Camara "man" is not a man but a
>>strong, determined and committed Camara "woman" in the mold of our sisters
>>on the L. I say BRAVO to the Jabou Johs, Soffie Ceesays, Ndey Jobatehs and
>>Sigga Jagnes. I apologise to all those other sisters whose names have not
>>been mentioned, not for lack of appreciation but out of ignorance. I know
>>from information reaching me that the Dagmas & the rest of the Christensen
>>clan, Mineratou (sorry for the spelling), Ms Allison (from the Big
>>Apple)and a host of others who, although they don't regularly appear on
>>the
>>L, are doing a tremendous job out there; demonstrating with their toddlers
>>in zero degree weather under the rain. Dagma, how is the youngest
>>demonstrator doing?  Tell him/her that Uncle George is doing a fantastic
>>job here by opening up the airwaves for every Gambian to exercise his/her
>>democratic right of free expression.  Sainey Camara is doing her bit here
>>through her social commentaries, and Gambian women in the Diaspora are
>>doing theirs in London, NY, District of Columbia, Oslo, Copenhagen,
>>Helsinki. YOUR EFFORTS ARE RECOGNISED BUT VERY MUCH APPRECIATED IN BANJUL.
>>THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH.
>>NDEY JOBATEH, THE STRUGGLE WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE BUTCHER IS KICKED OUT
>>OF
>>OFFICE.Not out of the country, just out of Office.  HE NEEDS TO GIVE
>>ACCOUNT.  Ebrima, thank you for the service you continue to provide us,
>>The
>>Gambia, her people and her well wishers, including your British friend
>>from
>>Southren England.  Tell him that his last message has already been printed
>>and being circulated as I write this piece.
