>There is a new twist to the Basse ambush.  It appears that Yahya Jammeh has
>laid the blame squarely on the doorsteps of Baba Jobe's brother cum Deputy
>Commissioner of Basse.  During his Meet the People's Tour, Yahya Jammeh met
>the family of Alie Njie the dead 22nd July and APRC militant killed during
>the ambush of the UDP antourage to offer his condolences.  After offering
>the family 10,000 dalasi, he turned to the family and said categorically
>that Momodou Suma Jobe and another member of the 22 July Movement were
>responsible for Aliue Njie's death.  You can imagine how flabagasted we
>were at this admission.  No wonder both Yahya jammeh and members of the
>APRC have pleaded with Ousainou to cooperate with Government which is
>trying to wiggle out of the case.  Of course, Ousainou has refused to
>cooperate.  Why should he make it easy for Yahya and his thugs to wiggle
>out of a tight and potentially explosive situation.  Similarly, Baba Jobe
>and the Observer (the latter has publicly apologised to Sam Sillah) are on
>their hands and knees for Sam to drop the libel case against Baba Jobe who
>accused Sam Sillah of genocide against the Nigerian people during the
>Biafra civil war.  sam is also saying no.  Baba refused to attend the first
>hearing but he has been strictly warned by Yahya that if he fails to show
>up on the 7 November, he will have him arrested.  So, I guess, the love
>affair or marriage of convenience is over between Baba Jobe and Yahya
>Jammeh.
