Frankly speaking, I am very angry. Am not really sure who to direct
my anger at. Calling Gambia over the past couple of months has been
very depressing. Land phones, cell phones and stupid "Jamano" phone,
all remain silent most of the time. You have to be extremely lucky to
get someone on the other end in Gambia. To add salt to injury, my
phone card loses all its available credit regardless of whether i
speak to someone in Gambia or not.

The other day, after a relentless efforts, i finally got my brother
on his cell phone. By this time, i was so angry that i started a
quarrel with him and literally holding him responsible for being too
difficult to reach by phone. By the time i realise that my brother
does not work at Gamcel, my credit was already used up. It was a
shame that i was blaming my brother for something he is clearly not
responsible of. A week later, i was explaining this to my friend in
florida, he made me laught my ass off when he told me he was verbally
abusive to his wife for the same reason. Both me and him ultimately
admitted that we over-reacted. And that we were blaming the wrong
people.

My point is where the hell are the Gamtel people and why the hell are
they still receiving their salaries. All of you would rot in jail if
i was running the government. Hating President Jammeh does not give
you the right to cut of communication between me and my family- ass
holes. But you know what, President Jammeh is the biggest fool. He
keeps telling people Gambia will become a Silicon Valley. But i call
it "Silo to kong-kunda" Mandinka language meaning 'a foot path to
Baboon land' Land with no telephones or dialtones. Who will invest
their wealth in a country with no dial tone. Jammeh these dreams
cannot gurantee you the presidency for the next 30 years. Ask
President Jawara about his Singaporian Dream. Time will tell. You
better use your magic to solve this telephone problem.

Finally, readers do u realise that the phone card companies have
unilaterally cut minutes usually allowed to call Gambia. For some
strange reasons, all the phone cards such as Boss, Crazy, have
slashed their minutes by half. This applies to Gambia alone. Ooh Poor
Gambia.
