BAMPA!
First of all, have you read your postings and see if
they made any sense, or how childish you write? This
is a public forum, and it is "OPEN TO THE PUBLIC".
GAMBIANSONLINE.COM will be advertised whether you like
it or not. I think the best is for you to give props
to those who made it available and not try to downplay
your fellow brother. "lee mor-tah nyu deylew ganaaw".
BE MORE MATURE, POSITIVE AND GOOD-WILLED.
KEEP SEEKING!
