  Sanyang,
         Any honest critic should abide by the principle of fairness and truth fullness. Critic hasthe right to criticize and prove his allegations and the accused has the right of rebuttal of the allegations.

  I believed in an open society where there should be an open debate,there by,the reality cannot be transformed into falsehood and falsehood cannot be transformed
into reality.

  On two occasions, you tried to undermine Essa Sey on this very forum by accusing him of having reported Gambians to the US Government and that proved to be a
damn rubbish and i say it without hesitation that it is a damn none sense. If i were Essa Sey i would constitute a legal action against you for attempting to assassinate his character. But the option is still open.

  You have the right to support your employer at the Gambian Embassy but please do not to lie against anyone. For your irrelevant Opinion comment on the above captioned, i do not need to waste my time on it because your opinion is yours.

  Mballow
