Mr. Conteh, the name of the organization you have in mind is not STGFG, but
STGDP.  Having said that, I believe you are embellishing the truth here.  Do
you know how Halifa and co, came to NC, much more you having audience with
him, do you?  Did you contribute a dime to his coming to the US and the
cities they visited?  Please do not start an issue here where there is none.
  If you were talking about Sheriff Dibba, I can say you know him better.
However, what you ascribe to Halifa, Gambians know his character and he also
know enough to not remotely go where you are attempting to go.  Please we do
not have time for pettiness and you ought to stop right now.  With all the
by-elections that have been conducted, where were you?  Do you know how they
were funded?  So, what grounds do you stand on to just show up and start
bickering about the imagined?  Contribute to the struggle, but stop the
divisiveness.  You started your avalanch by throwing an innuendo that some
in the struggle are seeking a "green card".  Where do you get off with these
extensions.  This reminds me when you came here and lied about me being a
snitch, you remember that one?  You know, time has a way to take care of the
dishonest and it seems to me you have not learned your lesson.  So who in
their right mind will ever take you seriously.  You have transitioned quite
a bit over the years and I need not bore the readership for they witnessed
it all.  Now, you're here name dropping to lend credence to your slight of
hand against the STGDP.  In this business only the sincere shall remain,
just remember that.

"I witnessed the most disturbing thing this summer.  Some of the opposition
members were upset with the forcefulness of some of our comrades, especially
those representing STGFD.  At one point, one opposition member said: "If you
don't like the way we are doing things, then why can't you come back to the
Gambia and lead us."  Mr. Sallah said to me, "we are looking for Gambians
who are patient and respectful."  I guess you can read the lines."

Since you made it your business to concoct the above, then you are obligated
to say what STGDP member in NC you are talking about.  If you don't, then
folks will just ignore you from here on out.  You are not going to throw
dirt and then claim immunity, so cough it up.  You were silent all this time
only to show up here to pick up from your posture of yester years.  Do me a
favor, why don't you get hold of Halifa and ask him about the STGDP and then
come back to the readership.  Please don't get me started.
