Mr Jallow,
Thats still better than Yaya Jammeh's GCE O Levels from GHS. The fourth
estate has a job to do and they are doing it well. As for the use of sulky
language, why not you advise president Jammeh that his dry humour does not
go down well with the people its directed at. I suppose you are a good
muslim, what do say to somebody who insults you and mock at your religion?
