Folks,

Ms Mariama Njie has earned herself a symbolic, but important,  place in the
struggle against Jammeh's brigandage of the Gambia. She has, albeit,
unwittingly sang the song that all those who they are opposed to the regime
ruling our country. I really shed tears for the Gambia when listening to
Mariama. At one point, I even thought Mariama was being carried away by
emotions of Jammeh's wickedness towards the Gambian people. To me, she
represents a huge majority of Gambians who refuse to recognize Jammeh's
ineptitude to rule the country. With the exception of her regression  to
Jawara's time, I think she spoke for all Gambians who are sitting on the
fence. I hope she will now reconsider her position, for the LOVE of our
beloved land, and join the struggle against the incompetence and wastage of
the Jammeh junta.

I did not hear Jabou and Joe, but judging from the reactions of those on
this forums who did, I have no doubt that Joe and Jabou  and many like them
have been singing my "hymn sheet". I was lucky to hear Lt. Minteh talking
about Yahya's education and also "Rakka" Omar Joof's attempt to clear the
air between Senegalese's and Gambians, but honestly speaking, Alhaji's
closing remarks should live in all us forever. Alhaji Tapha Faye has done a
great job and that should not go unmentioned.

God bless The Gambia

Prince

NB.
Internet Radio, was this not discussed on Gambia-L way back in the late
90's?
