Suntou,

Like you, I admire and wish to support Pa Nderry. However,  when I saw what  
our other friend Yanks forwarded, I was very  disappointed. I have great 
regard  
for Cherno Baba and I don't think he  or anyoneelse deserves such personal 
animus  from the editor and  proprietor a newspaper especially Pa Nderry and  
Freedomonline. Here is  an opportunity for you and I to prevail on Pa Nderry 
to  
reconsider  manner and fashion to convey his disgust.

A few months ago, when my  friend Mr. Sankareh of the Gambia Echo used the  
front page of the echo  to convey his disdain of your self, I was 
disappointed  
and thought it  in poor taste. I shared my opinions thusly with Sankareh and 
I 
am   pleased he reconsidered and yielded.

You have stated below that even  though Pa Nderry and Freedom need some  
improvement, he ought to be  accorded some consideration because 'your man in 
 
Banjul keenly reads  Pa'. This is the wrong reason not to advise Nderry in  
propriety. Your  man in Banjul keenly reading Pa, is a yield of Pa and  
Freedom's 
value.  Your man does not read Pa because he expects to yield such  value.  
Therefore, we must advise Nderry that the goal of having 'Your Man'  read  
Freedom is 
both foolhardy and insignificant. Nderry ought to  regard 'Your Man in  
Banjul' 
as another valuable reader of Freedom like  CHerno Baba, yourself, and  
myself. 
To the extent our readings affect  our decision making and quality of  life, 
Nderry proudly deserves  commendation and must be commended. Nderry ought  
not 
make "Your man in  Banjul" reading him to be a goal of any edition of Freedom 
 
online. It  is untenable and suicidal for Freedom.

On the other hand, Nderry,  Sankareh, Yankuba, Demba, Yero, Baboucarr, Mbye,  
Ousman, and Ebrima,  ought to be encouraged to build good relations among  
themselves and  with their readership and contributors. It is a fraternity 
that  
lives  off itself and expands its umbrella by the edition. They must all 
exercise  
due-diligence and restraint and must never be tempted to use circulation as  
a  tool to further disharmony and truncation of collaborative  effort. It is 
not easy owning 
and  or running a newspaper, whether in  print or online. It is never easy 
growing a  family or nourishing the  poor and hungry soul. It is in the main 
a thankless 
job. If  you please  copy this to Nderry Suntou, You and I share this advice  
with Pa  Nderry, a man we both admire and support. I encourage 
re-consideration 
of  manner and fashion. I urge Pa Nderry to remove the personal chastisement  
 
of Cherno Baba from Freedom's site even as he may be well within reason to  
be 
disdainful of Cherno. There is more value that can be shared between  Cherno 
and  Nderry. I also encourage Cherno Baba to consider yielding  better 
understanding  between himself and Nderry for I know it is not  beyond either 
 
gentleman.

Let me break it down  for you Nderry!

"Runaway  journalists should give us a breath  please. We do not need your 
advice". Pa  Nderry

OK no advice.  But less you forgot, Pa Nderry, you are a runaway   journalist

However, 

"Take your ethics to the gutters". Pa   Nderry

You do not need runaway journalists' advice, but what made  you  think that 
you can advise runaway journalists' by advising them  "to take their  ethics 
to 
the gutters". Are you for real?

"We  shall use breaking news  today, tomorrow and day after". Pa  Nderry

Yes,
But you forget that  Runaway journalist have the same  right in expressing 
their opinion about your  journalistic  flaws.

"Get to hell". Pa Nderry

Easy "Rude Boy".  Don't speak  to your elders like that!

"Put your journalistic ethics in  your  damn pockets!!" pa nderry

OK Pa, now you sound really like a "Rude   Boy" than a newspaper editor. So 
what should we call you.
"Rude Boy  Editor"  buyaka!!!!

"Forward with Freedom, backwards never!!!"   freedomnewspaper!" pa nderry

Point of correction Rude  Boy!

It's  Backward with Freedom, Forward never"!!!
