Gambians Say No to GM Food</A>
On the heels of Zimbabwe's recent stands to not accept tens of thousands of 
tones of donated genetically modified foods from the US, the Bush 
Administration has recently given out food assistance worth over a million dollars to the 
Republic of the Gambia. The donation, however, has been greeted with 
mixed-reactions. Many Gambians have raised eyebrows over the gift, arguing that 
Genetically Modified Food stuff must not enter their country. Momodou L.Jaiteh files 
this story from the Gambia.
