>>Furthermore, I strongly believe that both The Gambia and VP Isatou Njie

>>barbarous regime, the easier our task of overhauling it.
>>From yet another perspective, VP Njie Saidy may have commited crimes
>>against
>>us, I dont think she should be discouraged from making amends if she so
>>desires. Serious her crimes may be, I dont want to believe she is beyond
>>redemption.
