Comrade Conteh, the questions you posed for Dr Janneh will ever stay to be
unanswered, since his intention to joined with a regime he claimed and name
them Aimless Peoples Ruining the country. There credibility's will ever be
questions, since they join a wagon whose intention is to treat us with
impunities. We need conscious leaders not the calibers of our so-called
doctors, who can work with any kind of regime detrimental to any socio
development of our motherland. Lets speak out the truth about those wolfs in
a sheep clothing's.
