Gambia-L:

Another e-mail from one of my sources in Banjul.

Saul Khan: I am glad that you guys are encouraging my sister Fatou Jaw
Manneh to start writing; just keep the pressure on her until she does
something.

>Ebrima,
>My intelligence sources are providing me with information which require
>further analysis. The raw information has to be processed and verified
>before counter measures are taken. The opposition is aware and the
>situation is being well monitored. The UDP intelligence network is far
>superior to that of this regime as it has been demonstrated time and time
>again. The Basse incident is a good case in point. The UDP got the
>information that Baba Jobe and his brother were planning to ambush their
>entourage which was reproted by Femi Peters to the Banjul Police well
>before the incident took place. Now
>this piece concerns the alliance between Cheyassin Secka and Simon Talibo
>Sanneh both of whom, as you know, were involved in both the planning and
>execution of the ill-fated 1981 coup d'etat against the Jawara regime.
>Several meetings have been held between Cheyassin, Simon Talibo Sanneh and
>one "Commander Nasile" in Burkina Faso. And to facilitate Talibo Sanneh's
>movements within the region, including Guinea-Bissau and Burkina-Faso,
>Cheyassin has given one of the two vans he took on credit from CFAO (which
>I reported earlier)to Simon Talibo Sanneh. He is seen driving Cheyassin
>around at times. Their relationship has become closer since their days at
>Mile 2 doing life. And now that both of them are "free men" and still with
>the undiminished desire of Cheyassin to be President of The Republic of The
>Gambia, something appears to be in the making but, as I said, things are
>not yet clear. But the alliance between Cheyassin, Simon Talibo Sanneh and
>the "Commader Nasile" is of concern not only to the Opposition and the
>diplomats, but also to the Civil Servants. This is all I wish to say on
>this development for now, except that both Cheyasssin and Simon Talibo
>Sanneh are very well aware of the fact that there is a complete break down
>of law and order in the Gambia. Cheyassin would like to further his aims by
>contributing to the already existing lawlessness and chaos and that is one
>of the reasons why he is pursuing Ousainou's case in court. If he succeeds
>in placing Ousainou in remand, the stage would have been set. Mark my word.
