I really have no interest in dwelling on the subject of Ebou with you.  I
deal with Ebou one on one and do not need you to get to him, as I am
currently demonstrating since that issue.

I only replied to respond to your rhethorical question and the answer is a
very simple one if folks can only seperate support of the baby Scorpions
from the scam and theft by Yaya.  I was a baby Scorpion and so, I do not
think you can love them more that that.  They need the encouragement and
financial support, but not by Yaya using them to justify his theft of our
coffers.  If Yaya inherited that money from a rich uncle or patented a
product that sells like hot cakes, this would not habve been an issue.  The
beanhead is a thief and anything he doles out to anybody is on the backs of
the poor tax payers of Gambia.  You talked about my ego, well try Yaya.  The
baby Scorpions are winning because of their talent not because of Yaya's
promisses and folks need to wise up to that reality.  If there was a strong
corelation between high stakes and winning, then the US, Saudi, Iraq, etc.,
would have won the world cup a long time ago, for they can and would have
topped most stakes.

However, there would be Gambians that see nothing wrong with Yaya's con,
like some Gambians have supported his actions, even when he murdered the
students.  Does that mean that all Gambians have unethical issues, I don't
think so.  However, it seems to me that you are not interest in your main
point anymore with the response you directed at me.

As to your financial support of NADD, we thank you for your continued
support and I will take this opportunity to remind our people that it is 7
days to the by-elections, are we representing?  NADD needs our financial
support, now.  Now, how did I make that transition?  Anyway.

Chi Jaama

Joe
