Edi, we are not going to cuddle this criminal, Joe Joof.  Joof and Jammeh
are both criminals and we are going to deal with both of them.  Forget about
TRC in Gambia.  We have to deal with these thugs in order to show any would
be criminals, what's in store for them.  In Europe and else where, they send
them away for life, however, in Africa we come up with TRC and all sorts of
excuses to avoid dealing with the root cause of the problem.  Folks, there
is no way around it, Joof, Jammeh, et al are going to be caged, that is, if
the ordinary Gambian will not rip them to shreads before hand.  history is
on our side.
