>Ebrima,
>Raymond Sock is about to resign his post of SG. It will not come as a
>surprise to those who know him given the unprofessional manner in which his
>boss is running the AG's Chambers. An already repressive judiciary is being
>re-inforced by Cheyassin Secka causing Raymond to re-think his position in
>this government. Family and peer pressure is mounting to which he will
>succum to soon. His wife, an African-American cannot sit by and see her
>husband being used as an instrument of oppression. The Civil Servants are
>wising up to this monstrous regime.
>Meanwhile, "Coms" Wadda has been dismissed from the service.  She is
>leaving the Government with pride and her reputation enhanced for the
>principled stance she took against a corrupt bunch of hoodlums who are hell
>bent on empting the government coffers. Isatou, your colleagues are proud
>of you. I, for one, will join you, if ever I am confronted by these
>nonentities. Until such time, I will continue the strugggle from within by
>providing the world with inside information to expose the evil mature of
>the Jammeh regime.
>Cheyassin called up a meeting of his "green" lawyers yesterday still
>looking for ways to place Ousainou Darboe under remand. He is still
>determined to put the UDP leadership behind bars. I am not a lawyer but
>this approach seems to me to be be unconstitutional; but again "these
>people" have been operating outside the constitution since day one. So
>nothing is new. However, a dogged pursuit of the UDP leadership will only
>bring further violence and bloodshed. The UDP, and I hope the rest of the
>opposition, will not back down. EBRIMA, THERE IS NO BACKING DOWN AS FAR AS
>THE UDP IS CONCERNED. I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT.
>On other developments, Commissioner Kanteh, NBD who was fired last on
>Sunday has fled the country. He is suspected to be in Senegal. He was going
>to be accused as an accomplice in an "attempted coup". He would have been
>killed before reaching Banjul from Kerewan. They will still cook up yet
>another attempted coup to repeat the November,'94 massacre.
>Borry Touray, the Magistrate who referred Ousainou's case to the Supreme
>Court in Banjul has been fired together with four (4) staff of Basse Area
>Council. The latter were considered to be UDP sympathisers; that is the
>only crime they have committed, Ebrima.
>Check today's Observer for Baba Jobe's interview. He has gone back to being
>Assistant Secretary, Office of the President. They can run, Ebrima, but
>they cannot hide including Baba Jobe Asst.Secreatry-cum-terrorist. Within
>the next few days or weeks, you will witness the demystification of Baba
>Jobe. He may be a terrorist but people power is more formidable than his
>tactics. The UDP has shown him in Basse that united as a people we can
>defeat terrorism, especially terrorism whose sole objective is for the
>personal enrichment of Yahya, Baba Jobe and a few criminals. THE GAMBIAN
>POPULATION IS FED UP AND WE ARE READY FOR ANY EVENTUALITY. THE PEOPLE WILL
>PRESERVE THEIR DIGNITY AT ALL COST. So long and have a good day.
