Sister Jabou and Joe:

Now that we have come to some point of realization that there is more at stake
than the negatives that divide us, we must start now and continue to stress
one and only one doctrine of total unity.  Please let us forget our previous
disagreements and concentrate on issues that can further unite our fold.

I must first admit that I accept full responsibility in my inconsistencies,
and I'm fully oblige to a condition that mistakes do open eyes.  My eyes are
wide open.  I vow to stay the course.

We must in admission formulate strategies to make this initiative a reality.
Sister Jabou, I hope you can lead this effort.

Naphiyo,
Comrade ML Jassey-Conteh
