My sincere condolence to the Njie family. Francis was
my senior in SAHS. I admired him greatly and indeed he
was a huge insipiration to all of us (science
students) at SAHS. I can recalled when the GCE
results came out how the late Principal Sam Njie had
to stop all the classes in order to announce Francis's
phenomenal results. My wife also spent many summers
at BB's house in fajara when Francis was living there.
May his soul rest in perfect peace(Amen). Degaulle
you will be surely missed by all.
Saloum!
