We wish you all the best suntou and take a bunch of pictures of those  
potholes and more. I thought that Sukuta road was resurfaced recently? I think  
Yahya should get with MAKharafe and sons or whoever did that work to mitigate  
ASAP. Roads generally should have a life-span of 30 years, or in Gambia 15 years  
because the contractors cut corners on subgrade material or bitumen emulsions 
or  concrete strength and re-bars. I understand that if the folk at works and 
 infrastructure don't have a clue what they are buying or inspect the work of 
 contractors, such development is untenable and unsustainable. Maybe we 
should  solicit bids for roads of hay and mud instead of asphalt and concrete. This 
is  really shameful. And please don't blame it on the rains. Ghana and 
senegal  experience more extremes of temperature and precipitation than Gambia.
 
Oh, don't forget to give Yahya my message. If you're not able to see his  
motorcade, just give it to baboucarr Jatta for onward transmission.

i am  suffering from heavy cold due to the dusty roads and heat.when i 
arrived in  banjul two weeks ago ,my fear was malaria but then the mosquitos are not 
as  bad as they are in raining reasoning.
i visited banjul six times but  i couldn't see yahya's motor cade once.i show 
ousanou darboe opposite islamic  bank and the police head quaters on the 5th 
on nov with modou manneh.the  people are now more and more talking without 
fearing too much from the nia  men.i hear of the arrest of one mr conta from 
sweden last week .i visited  radio gambia to see one staff .
the roads are like being in a planet  of not were.from west field to sukuta 
is all deep holes and cuts every  where.
men things are some how bad.but the gambina spirit of ''leave  it to god '' 
is still  alive.
