Joe and others,
Please do not stop pursuing Issues,allegations and counter allegations made by Jammeh and The Gambian Embassy in Washington DC against NADD,Samba Bah and others. Exactly as Abdoukarim Sanneh posited here.
Facts are expected when news is made.Therefore we are appealing to all and sundry to avoid personal attacks.This includes Lamin Sanyang or Sabi. Let everyone say or reveal what you know then be ready to present the backing facts.Now onwards many outlets on line have agreed to be sending in hard facts be it against Jammeh or not.No fiction or photocopies please because in this age of today forging signatures is so easy especially where Sey is already being called to book by Lamin Sanyang in a similar case.Alieu Sanyang or Lamin Sanyang please no hatred or personal attacks we are here to set the records straight.
It is high time we come up with decent backings especially where NADD and the lives of others are involved.
Read this from Taipei...Another one will come from Guinea Bissau,Senegal and others.
On the allegations about Sey's list on Gambian,the Movement for Restoration of Democracy-Saikou Mballow and other political figures will act accordingly.Now the issue will be handled beyond the Gambia L lets work on facts.
Readers who want to see the coloured version of this piece from Taipei plus other pictures can access the (www.allgambian.net) then scroll to the bottom the article itsself is there.The samething was written on that site last week but we are out to set examples on the validity of our sources now onwards.No speculations.
I THINK AT LEAST FOR THE SAKE OF DECENCY THE GAMBIA GOV WILL NOT REJECT WHAT TAIPEI TIMES WROTE.So we at the end know if it is Yaya,NADD or someone else who helped frame Samba Bah?

DIPLOMATIC LINKS: The ministry spokesman said that President Chen had not been tipped off nor given any early warning about Senegal's switching ties to Beijing
By Chang Yun-ping
STAFF REPORTER
Wednesday, Nov 09, 2005,Page 2 "The whole letter is about affairs between Gambia and Senegal and there is no mention of Senegal-Taiwan or Senegal-China relations."
Michel Lu, spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs yesterday denied media reports that President Chen Shui-bian (陳水扁) had received prior notice from Gambia's president last month over Senegal's intention to defect to China. Gambian President Yahya Jammeh was reported to have sent messages to Chen during his visit in Taiwan for the Double Ten National Day celebrations last month to be extra careful of the possibility of Senegal switching its ties to China, a Chinese-language newspaper said. Ministry spokesman Michel Lu (呂慶龍) said that Jammeh did send a letter to Chen on Sept. 15, accusing Senegal of attempting to launch attacks on Gambia and Guinea-Bissau by stepping up its weaponry purchases from France. Lu said Jammeh made the accusations against Senegal in the UN meeting in September. Lu said that Taiwan's representative office in New York had been asked to forward the letter back to Chen. The six-page, 22-paragraph letter did not contain any
information suggesting any changes to either Senegal-Taiwan or Senegal-China relations, he said. "The whole letter is about affairs between Gambia and Senegal and there is no mention of Senegal-Taiwan or Senegal-China relations," Lu said. The ministry denied that Jammeh had personally tipped Chen during his visit to Taipei to be cautious about Senegal's interactions with China, saying the conversations between the two leaders did not touch on anything related to Taiwan-Senegal relations. The Presidential Office also issued a statement yesterday, sternly refuting the newspaper report. The Presidential Office's Department of Public Affairs said in a press statement that Jammeh had said nothing last month about Taiwan's relations with Senegal. Jammeh did not address the issue in the letter sent to Chen in September either, it said. In other diplomatic news, the ministry yesterday dismissed media reports that the government had given the Marshall Islands US$5 million to
build a floating dock, which was later discarded after environmentalists protested that it would would damage marine resources. Lu said the dock was funded by private companies, not the government. "President Chen did not promise to fund the building of the floating dock during his visit to the Marshall Islands in May," he said. It's entirely the business of Taiwanese companies and the Marshall Islands," the spokesman said. Additional reporting by Chiu Yu-tzu
