Mr Johnson,
there is so much Lang Conteh is involved in and taking care of for the moron
that it is sometimes difficult to keep track of. His latest is that togethe
with Baaba Jobe they have rented the top of Saint Mary,s Food aand Wine
Supermarket along Kairaba Avenue and they are opening a first Class
Shopping Mall according to them. Already a young lady whom I do not wish to
mention now has been sent to Dubai and she was responsible for odering most
of the goods for the Mall. His latest on the Il Mondo is that he has
dcompletely demolished the beach bar (Il Mondo) and there is a big
construction team there all set to reconstruct another "first class" beach
bar. It s just too much......
