List Members.
News reached me this morning that a meeting held yesterday at The Banjul city
Councils Mayors chamber organized and chaired by the Mayor of Banjul ,the group
agreed to call off the hunger strike. The main reason given for this move is
that due to the worsening load shedding by Nawec and the  fear that most of the
meat kept will become uneatable after some days. One of the most outspoken
persons was Pa Jagne of Prime Insurance who reminded the group that the meat
could still be preserved by using the method of <katinde> and this motion was
also supported by Bai Ndongo Faal of Gamsta insurance.It was also  understood
that Beran Jeng, Malick Jeng and Dr Alh Jeng endorsed the motion.
