Jabou,
Edie meant me, for insulting Jammeh, by calling him " Tony Daabaa " " Simba
" & " Armuu min ". These words are called insults to Yaya Jammeh in the
Gambia,
and people are being harassed and tortured for uttering these words. In this
free world, I will continue to say " Armuu min " to anything that resembles
a " Simba ".
I stand firm by all what I have said on Radio Tam Tam. Why is Edie
interested to know about people`s PROGRESS ? My sympathy is with this
gentleman.
May Allah ( SWT ) help him.

Elhadj.
