  There again with the usual jealousy!
   
  Who says the good doctor should not take what he pleases of our meagre resources and splash the loot on the vanities of his fancies.

  BambaLaye, I am not at all surprised that Gambia would drop down any 
progressive ranking in the world. We nener hear loud accusations of 
politicians living flamboyant lifestyles these days, or of transparency, 
accountability and probity. Our good doctor has becoime the very 
personification of absurd flamboyance - what with the oily cheeks and 
flowing robes with the bulging pockets, the ever shining bald head and white 
"copoti", the sword, the book, and the beads, the eccentric claims to 
mysterious healing powers, citations as to his name being mentioned in the 
Quran, that he is the first president ever with that name, etc. Even 
Orwell's Napoleon would bend his head for our own good flamboyant dicta. And 
my sense is that things are not about to get better as long as our Master of 
Ceremonies presides over the confused affairs of our groaning nation.

Thanks for sharing.

Baba
