A Rhetorical Question!!!
Does anyone think Jammeh giving the Scorpion players each D1 Million is unethical?
I asked this question because I got an email from someone saying that some people paraphrasing a bit 1) think it was unethical of me to allow Ebou to spend stolen money on me when I know that people are starving in Gambia although it never occurred to people that if I’m at a conference everything I spend is completely reimbursable, therefore, I don’t need money form Ebou or anyone else. 2) I’m curious to know why people automatically think that when a woman meets a man they are willing to believe the worst? 3) The only reason why I didn’t defend my so called integrity as this person said is because the reason I got involved with this whole silly and petty situation was because Joe felt like his integrity was on the line by Ebou’s statement although he and many others have said repeatedly that Ebou is a liar, yet people still believe him. I don't understand this. However, when Ebou insinuated that we slept together, Joe knew it was going to be a blood bath, and yet he was going to
let me fend for myself (feed me to the wolves so to speak) although he knew that I didn't want to get involved in him and Ebou's fight. After Joe's action, I started thinking - how dare someone involve me into this type of childish foolishness to save their fragile ego/reputation while at the same time willing to feed me to the wolves. At that point, I said the hell with Joe and his frigging ego/reputation. This in my opinion was an unforgivable act and friendships deserved to be severed. Those who don’t like me will believe the worst, those who like me, will give me the benefit of the doubt. Either way, I felt like I could live with the consequences of whatever people thought of me because I'm not Gambian and I'm not bound by the same rules. My life will not change one iota.
Having said all of this, I again ask, if you guys agree that Jammeh stole this money and were willing to condemn me because you thought Ebou may have spent at most $100 on wining and dining me, does Jammeh have a right to give stolen money to the Baby Scorpions?
Taken from AllGambian
Gambia's baby scorpions, as they are widely called and their parents have good reasons to be happy, as reports reaching The ALLGAMBIAN have it that a D1Million dalasis gift awaits each of the players. President Yahya Jammeh is reported to have promised to compensate them each with D1million dalasis for their for their overall performances in the ongoing tournaments in Peru. Full story...
