Sorry about Simon Talibo folks. I don't know too much about him, except that him and Apai Jatta (short Taxi cab driver and Kukoi's Public Works Dept minister designate,) were good buddies. Before the abortive coup in '81, their favorite hangout was right where Kukoi lived in Sicap (near the swamps in Tallinding.) I'll still recognize him if I should see him, but there's not much about the guy. Unlike any of Kukoi's "boys," Simon doesn't stand out in any way. From his looks, and behavior, (a dour, colorless, and rather shadowy character,) it seems he'd be merely contented with living in some obscure village. On, the other hand, he's the type that any fairly intelligent person could manipulate and turn into a monster. A semi-literate named Kukoi Samba Sanyang did just that (to several half-wits like Simon.) "Go figure!" like they say around here. This is my opinion based on what I remember of this Koto. Sorry, it isn't much.
