F, the three tenors are brought to preside over a fix.  Thus, we have to be
vigilant against any that is here to do Yaya's bidding.  The fact that
someone spent 30 or 50 years in the civil service is no license to act
criminal and Mr. Njie is going to be told.  They foamed about being
impartial but folks saw through them and if they want to risk being
ridiculed because of Yaya, we will ridicule them for what they are.  They
should be ashamed of themselves and shall be remembered for that.  How can
Mr. Njie allow himself to be used by an idiot in Yaya?  Simple, Greed is the
operative word here.  Shame on these geezers.
