Hi Yanks,
 
“Memoranda: I am disappointed you sign off with "Nemesis Yanks". It takes  
away from the gravitasse of your argument. I understand your disposition  
vis-a-vis Tunkara, but I think that signature inures animus. And I declare you  do 
not intend such. I encourage you to keep it simple and focused. Another more  
benign 
signature as to Tunkara is advised”. Haruna

[Brother far from  inuring animosity, my signature is just a choice of phrase 
to conclude my write  ups it has no bearing of vendetta. It was once 
expressed that I use it to people  that I perceived as enemies, but this is not the 
case. It is just one of my  phrases: Brethren Yanks or Nemesis Yanks. The choice 
depends on my familiarity  with the person.] Yanks.
 
Brethren Yanks sounds better to me.
 
“I keep getting sidetracked with your numerous quotes of disparate  persons 
and epoch. While this attaches significance to the quotes, it risks  relegating 
your commentary to groping for acknowledgement and I find some of the  
quotations ineffectual. Hemingway, Einstein, Kant, and Nixon lecterns for  different 
epochs. The idea for such quotations in law is the establishment of  
precedence in law and deterrence of crime. In your case, you have established  that 
Nderry's crimes are complete and you consider measured punishment”.  Haruna

[Brother far from groping for acknowledgement my use of quotes are  to make a 
persuasive point. That is to tell the reader that this point I’m  stating has 
been shared with so and so of this epoch. Besides as Socrates  rightly puts 
it: “employ your time in improving yourself by other men's  writings, so that 
you shall gain easily what others have laboured hard for”.  
In common law, quotation of legislation or legal precedents are used to tell  
the judge conducting a trial that this is not words of mine but those of a 
judge  who had been at your position or above your position or that of the 
legislation.  I’m sorry you find my quotes ineffectual but that would not avert me 
from my  long tradition of quoting honourable men of great accolade to support 
my point  in debates, writings or speeches.] Yanks.
 
I did not know you were engaged in debate. Further, the value of  Ellen is to 
discourage litigation or fight among community members. It is a  place where 
we can share ideas and alternatives to punitive and  injurious courses of 
action by community members. There is enormous value  however in quoting 
"honourable men of great accolade to support your point in  debate". I share ideas in 
value-quotation.
 
“As regards Nderry's crimes, I have shared with you that I hold no brief  for 
the man, neither do I believe him benign. However, I encourage you to  
consider this:
Nderry's custody of a list of his informants, or his  publication of a list 
of informants, accurate or not, and malicious or not, does  not in itself 
warrant Yahya's wrongful arrest, detention, imprisonment, or  murder of any person 
or persons in such list. In other words, I rather hold  Yahya to a higher 
standard of due-diligence than I do Nderry. This is even if I  believe Yahya to be 
aversed by Nderry's informants. I encourage you therefore to  de-link 
Nderry's crimes of slander and libel and gaucherie, from Yahya's  pre-dispositions 
and 
or actions. Do not attach more significance to Nderry  than he is due. It is 
a heavy burden for the invalid to have to consider  authority of another 
person's ware. He must first be of sound mind and body”.  Haruna

[Brother the damage of Nderry’s negligence here has been done and  innocent 
people have been victimised. Whether Jammeh did the detention,  imprisonment or 
murder is not and issue of dispute; but would it have happen if  Nderry had 
taken the precautionary measures? This is a question of causation; it  would 
not have happen but for his action or inaction it happened. He was in  custody 
of people’s personal information how that ended up in Jammeh’s hands is  still 
a mystery to me. At the end of the day people suffered while Pa Nderry  
benefited by gaining his refugee status in the US. What a coincidence!]  Yanks.

 
Exactly. Nderry therefore could be accused of Negligence or not  exercising 
ample due-diligence to protect the privacy of his correspondents.  However, he 
cannot be charged with any of the crimes of detention, imprisonment,  or 
murder, or accessories thereto. It is reasonable to suspect Nderry's  intentions or 
motives for yielding Asylum out of the matter, but consider that  the Asylum 
protected Nderry from deportation, arrest, detention, and murder, and  is 
valuable for the safety of his person but not the commission of crimes  against 
other because there was no evidence to support such intent or action on  
Nderry's part prior.


“As to Free On-Line Tabloid, this outfit does serve a value. Not to  me of 
course but to the Life of credence. Remember that The Daily Observer,  itself a 
Tabloid, operates in a lawless atmosphere replete with gossip, slander,  and 
innuendo. It is in this quest that it sought to violate the rights to  privacy 
of a peer tabloid, the Free On-Line, by surreptitiously publishing the  
latter's list of correspondents without necessary due-diligence in vetting for  
value and accuracy. And, the desire or intent to do harm therefore to any in the  
list, is the domain of The Daily Tabloid. I wonder if you're with me. In 
effect,  The Free On-Line Tabloid did not exhibit intent, nor did it act on 
perceived  intent by supplying the list to the The Daily Tabloid. Might we therefore  
conclude, that whatever our impression of Nderry, the crimes of arrest,  
detention, and murder, or accessory thereto, have not been completed by Nderry.  
Now this does not speak to the colour or character of the persons on Nderry's  
database”. Haruna

[In fact Bro, freedom newspaper first published the  list before observer 
copied it a day or two later.] Yanks.
 
Yanks, I did not know this to be the case. I thought Nderry's site was  
hacked and via a proxy server, the database was published as if Nderry had  
published it. In other words his email protocol were spoofed. If you are correct  in 
that Nderry actually published the info himself, then it will have  been an 
aggregious crime punishable by death, or de-minimis, must be  prosecuted.
 
[But this is not just the crime Nderry has committed, Nderry has been using  
a 'by-line' of Buba Jammeh from state house. In fact there was a soldier from  
Brikama by that name at the state house, who ended up serving one year in 
Mile  two central prison.] Yanks.
 
Again I was not aware of this. If true, Nderry has displayed odious  
ignorance and negligence or at the extreme malicious injury on any Buba Jammeh  
anywhere in Gambia. He could have exercised due-diligence in using names not  
familiar to Gambia even if any of his informants were named Buba Jammeh, which I  
doubt very seriously. And that is why I hold Yahya to a higher standard of  
due-diligence not to arrest, detain, or mistreat any person named Buba Jammeh  
simply because the invalid Nderry, out of ignorance and uncouth malice, may  have 
represented them "informants".
 
[But shortly after Sgt Buba Jammeh’s arrest Nderry stopped using that by  
line on Freedom. What does that tell, certainly from the authorities in Banjul's  
point of view they had caught the right person?]. Yanks.
 
Yanks, indeed Nderry has demonstrated excruciatingly poor judgements and  
hightened and malignant unprofessionalism witness my alleging him decrepit  
invalid. However, it could mean severe shortcoming in acumen  and professionalism 
and not necessarily intentional administration of  harm, bodily injury, and or 
detention on Buba. And these are the reasons why I  suggest you reconsider the 
mode and scope punishment for these crimes of  the inferior mind.
 
[Another point is that how come more than the hundred people, who suffered  
either directly or indirectly from the freedom newspaper fracas; there was no  
relative, not even a distance cousin, of Pa Nderry involved. I guess Brother 
we  can call that another coincidence.] Yanks.
 
I understand your suspicion. However, considering the other crimes of  
Nderry, this could be merely coincidental and still the workings of a dis-eased  
mind. In other words by default thereof and not design.
 
“The only other crime you accuse Nderry of is his affect on the dissolution  
of NADD. I think anything other than disappointment in Nderry will be 
stretching  it a bit as regards NADD. No one is to blame for the dissolution of NADD 
but the  parties to the conversation that was NADD. Further, no one is to be  
commended for any achievements of NADD but the parties to the NADD  
conversation. Besides, Nderry, believing he has as much of an interest in NADD  as You, 
Tunkara, or myself, reserves a right to affect the quality and character  of 
any NADD, with or without our demonstration of our own interests and their  
scope. I encourage you to indemnify Nderry of any liability or credit for NADD  
and its ware. The NADD participants are persons of major age and of sound body 
 and mind”. Haruna

[Brother Pa Nderry cannot be indemnified of NADD  dissolution, he was running 
a public medium where he carelessly allowed every  Tom and Jerry to express 
their personal vendetta against the coalition members;  this generates 
animosity in any coalition. It is true that NADD members did  contribute to the 
dissolution of NADD but freedom did not help.] Yanks.
 
Indeed Yanks. No matter how disappointed you are in this regard, and for  the 
fact that Free On-Line Tabloid did not help the fortunes of NADD, Nderry or  
his Tabloid still did not commit any crime vis-a-vis NADD. If  anything, 
Nderry may have done us all a favour by arresting NADD for it  demonstrated the 
acumen and sobriety of the NADD partners if their deliberations  could be so 
guided by Nderry and Free On-Line Tabloid. We may wish to thank  Nderry therefore 
for the dissolution of a sick NADD.
 
[There is a room for contemplation that Pa Nderry did not want NADD to  work, 
simply if they had won the election he would not have succeeded in his  
Asylum claim in the United States.] Yanks.
 
This is too speculative and unreasonable. I do not agree with you here,  
regardless of our perceptions of Nderry's motives to be. I do not see how the  
ware of a prospective NADD can affect any asylum proceedings of  anyone.
 
“I do believe Nderry has committed the crimes of libel and slander against  
some persons, including yourself and Abdoukarim among many others. The question 
 then becomes; How you the aversed hold Nderry liable for crimes on your 
persons.  But I do not believe he has committed any crime against NADD (an 
intractable  victim), the persons in his list of "informants" who fell prey to 
other's  illegal actions, or for the mere proprietorship of a Free On-Line Tabloid. 
The  outfit risks committing fraudulent agency and benign decrepitude, but 
those are  the same crimes The Daily Tabloid commits. Now then in the realm of  
comparative crimes, I submit that the two tabloid are generically antidotes  
of each other”. Haruna

[Brother I’m glad you acknowledged that truth that  Pa Nderry is a criminal. 
The crimes he committed against me; Karim, Sadibu  Jadama, Sheriff Bojang, Mr 
Low, Fatoumata Jahumpa, PK Jarju, Yorro Jallow,  Muhamed Jawara, Yankuba 
Jambamg, the list goes on. Brother these crimes are  still pending; if only I was 
in America I would have been in court with Pa  Nderry. How do you think people 
view us now? It is a scar that we carry with us  every day. It worried Sheriff 
Bojang so much that he had to call Nderry to beg  him. People don’t know the 
fear Pa Nderry has instilled in the minds of  ordinary Gambians. People call 
me like I had an accident, every one was worried  about me like “Njalahirr” 
has knocked at my door, but that is the Cruelty of Pa  Nderry!] Yanks.
 
I understand your chagrin and indeed Nderry did commit crimes against some  
of these persons. And if its any consolation, I advise that you do not have to  
be in America to file suit for redress against Nderry for the crimes are  
international in nature and Nderry's residence is immaterial in this regard.  
Perhaps this is a better, wiser course of action than expenditures in another  
Tabloid aimed at bringing Free On-line Tabloid down. Should you desire to pursue 
 the legal avenue, I will be totally in support of you the victims of 
Nderry's  unprofessionalism and negligence. If you consider it more, litigation could 
 convince Nderry to either change his ways, apologise to those he has harmed  
(whether he intended to or not), or even cease and desist with the Tabloid. 
Let  me know if you, Karim, and other victims wish to pursue this wiser course 
of  action rather than what I believe to be the foolhardy and vainglorious 
pursuit  of evil to counter evil.
 
[We can agree to disagree; but Pa Nderry in my books is a criminal just  like 
his accomplish Yahya Jammeh! And I will never agree to the alternative!]  
Brethren Yanks.
 
I advise tempered and proprietary justice.
