Jammeh and his murderous regime because I decided to join his Cabinet.
 When I was fired there was jubilation in Gambia-Lville and Postville,"daff
ko moi" "turncoat" "corrupt opportunist"- the whole shebang.  I went on
about restructuring my life by corralling kids and family members to ensure
their lives are not unnecessarily disturbed beyond a tolerable level.  I
thank family and friends for a relatively smooth transition to a new life
in America.  Some, not all, criticized me for being aloof and a member of
the elite/intellectual class, none of which is true, of course.
> Then, I granted a single unsolicited interview to an online paper about
my life's ups-and downs, as they say in the vernacular, and all hell broke
loose, because I addressed a couple of lies told about me by Joe Sambou -
lies that you, Mboge, and the rest of the St. Joe's Tabernacle Choir helped
incubate in the bowels of the Gambia-L and The Gambia Post for nearly a
decade.  Meanwhile, they keep excusing his terror tactics as 'Joe's being
Joe".  Well, I have news for you folks "Let Sidi be Sidi."  If Joe has
scared the Bejesus out of you, move over and spare me
your condescending remarks about Joe exercising his right to free speech,
as if that right is absolute or that others do not have the right to self
defense.  I want one, just one example of one public admonishment of Joe
Sambou by one of his friends..  You are all scared of this guy.  So pleas
spare me your calls and emails.  Whatever you want to say to me, say it in
public for all to read.
> At least one prominent member of the cyber community made an observation
which I'd like to quote, but reluctant to reference his name for fear of
Joe's hounds being unleashed.  This is what he said which summaries more
succinctly a sentiment, I believe, shared by a good number of people who
have since contacted me by telephone, email and on Facebook.  The gentleman
said and I quote " This is the first time I laid such a comprehensive
knowledge of his person and background."  He continued, referring to the
interview, " If not for the part that landed him in Jammeh's dirty regime,
which came to define his character under Gambia's activism online mostly
accompanied with debates without follow up actions, everything else of this
man seems cool, going by this interview."  This gentlemen's reaction is
posted on the Gambia-L.  You cannot miss it because it sticks out like a
sore thumb as the solitary entry in a threat of threads carrying the label
'Sidi Sanneh'.  No comments offered on this thread because it is
not sheathing with hate.  In stead it was honest and truthful, and the
truth hurts, especially to those who feed on venom to nourish their hateful
souls.  Joe's posts are popular and in great demand because they are
venomous that stokes the fear and suspicion inherent in all of us.  He can
dial it up or down notch to get the desired effect.  Believe me, he knows
what he's doing.
> Within the American political scene this type of rhetoric that Joe Sambou
employs with devastatingly gusto is often referred to as "red meat" which
right wing/racist politicians like Sarah Palin use to get the tribal
elements within the Republican Party riled up.  These are the hard core
elements that form the core.  To keep them agitated, these right wing
politicians you must say things like 'Obama was not burn in America, he's a
socialist ( a big insult here ) or Michelle Obama hates America.  Joe
Sambou has perfected this technique which he interfaced with lies.  Lies
that will not go unexposed.  Mboge, Joe Sambou is your friend, ask him to
provide the newspaper clipping(s) that reported on me being arrested and
thrown at the back of the truck with Tombong Saidy and the conclusions and
recommendations of the Paul Commission's Report.  The only person who
ever challenged him of this specific point was Sanusi.  Joe The Liar
Sambou's response was 'I
