Ebou, I agree with you that as of now, we have a more pressing issue at hand, but when you make statements like: "G-L has a lot to talk about than a mere $3M, that Jammeh himself used to fulfil his illegal transactions of counterfeiting US Dollar bills" you make it impossible for some of us to ignore you. $3M is 30 Million Dalasi! Used peoperly, that could translate into tangible development for the Gambian people. So, do not down-play the significance of $3M in a country where the average person makes only $360 a year. I find your statement arrogant and totally repulsive! Just because you were handling millions of (looted?) dollars for Yaya Jammeh for a year or so on a daily basis doesn't mean that many Gambians are so lucky. Also, Peter Sanyang seems to be getting too emotional about it, but he's onto something here. Just because we want Yaya Jammeh out doesn't mean everybody is invited to the party. Yes, there are/were good and decent men in the GNA. We've heard about the Sam Sarrs, the Cokers, the Kantehs, etc. And we've heard about the Ebou Jallows. Any truly patriotic Gambian will go with the former group. Peter's point about how you've defended yourself against the Yaya Jammeh govt is very valid. It's mind boggling to explain how a former army Lt. with a monthly salary of $250/$300 (if that much)could spend tens of thousands of dollars to defend himself in a lawsuit on the international stage. Where the hell did the money come from Ebou? If you're so clean, why don't you answer this simple question. If you want any type of respect from Gambians, you need to come clean completely: say exactly what happened, and why you did what you did (the behind-the-scenes wheeling and dealing, the money laundering, etc.) At the very least, people are bound to respect your integrity. But, when you respond to comments the way you did to Peter Sanyang, you leave us wondering what's going on. Simply put, you owe Gambians an apology. Why? Because for quite a while, you were the mouthpiece of a brutal and repressive govt that did nothing but harrass, arrest, and torture Gambians, not to talk about looting public coffers. What is going on now started while Ebou Jallow was AFPRC spokesman! So, don't pretend this is all new. In any case, you can engage Gambians now and at the very least attempt to put your case on the table. Otherwise, you can continue to pretend to be holy when everybody knows better. Like Peter suggestedd to you, some day, you'll answer for your role in this gang. So, why not start now when you have a great opportunity to reach so many Gambians?
