Lamin:

This Kanilai buccaneer has so many unusual achievements I cannot begin to
list them. Youjust ahve to be jealous of the dude. Of late, he has bagged a
few more:

1- The first President to be called Yahya
2- The only president whose name is mentioned in the Quran; so he
says (Astaqfirul Lah Subhanahu Wa Ta'Allah - May the Almighty forgive our
sins)
3- Chief wizard of the kingdom of withces and wizards
4- etc..etc..

So you see, we can't help but be jealous of the buckaroo.
Don't worry Baba we'll strip him off all these titles down to
nothingness...soon!

-BambaLaye
