O.B., Baks and others:
I believe some day the truth will come out. I know
none of us will ever support any one including
Lamin-our brother, if he commits such a cruel act.
But a true soldier never ran nor do he/she cry like a
"goat." Mr Colley has to be a worm if he wants to be
one, or be a snail and come out of his shell. But he
can't be a man. I just want to know what Lamin Bajo
did to him. If he offended him I am sure he will be
glad to apologize. Until then we remain alerted and
ready for him, Mr Ebou Colley.
