MISSION ACCMPLISHED! I would like to take my hats off to Comrade Mr Lamine Conteh & Mr. Kebba Jallow who represented all of us concerned gambians at Rust College. Their dedication is commendable and I am humbled by such a noble leadership from these two gentlemen, who I may add, sacrificed their time and money. I thank them for seeing to it that our efforts didn't go in vain. This is true revelation to what we can achieve collectively if we focus on what is of paramount importance and fundamentally in the interest of our people, and our beloved nation. Words are not enough to tell all of you, who one way or the other helped made this petition a success, how proud am I . Y'all keep up the good work as we say here on the L! Sincerely, George Sarr [Mr Makaveli] From: Lamine Conteh <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Rust College To: [log in to unmask] Date: Jan 18, 2001 Comrades: Our mission to Rust College was successful. The administration at this great institution obliged to their promise in rescinding invitations to Tombong and Yankuba. Mr. Kebba Jallow and I met some Gambian students who also were waiting to see if these two puppets would show up. They intimated to us their appreciation that some list members of the L mounted massive e-mailing to the administration in calling for rescinding invitations to the dirimo's thugs. Dr. A.J. Stovall made it clear to us that he is working for the good of the Gambian people and not the dictatorship. I reminded him that he should be very careful because the dictatorship is desperate in making friends and would do anything for a thirst of publicity. Dr. Stovall recalled the appreciation market merchants would tell his entourage whenever they stopped at the stalls to make purchases. He indicated that he has found the Gambian people to be the most polite, despite insurmountable problems at their disposal. Mr. Kebba Jallow, former Chairman of KMC followed by telling Dr. Stovall that our trip to Rust College was a journey to democracy and that it is our responsibility as Gambians to defend the right of pursuit of happiness. He asserted that numerous Gambians have left the Gambia because of continuous harassment, intimidation and total denial of the basic principles of human decency. Dr. Stovall admitted that the dictatorship in the Gambia is repressive and that Gambians have a right to fight for justice. He, however, stated that by being called to meet yahya was by no means an endorsement of his administration. I reminded him that the US government does not recognize the undemocratic and illegal government of the Gambia. He never concurred with my statement, but did not imply any opposition to my revelation. In terms of education that Rust College provides to needy Gambians, I am impressed that the institution endowed a $1,400 tuition waiver for any Gambian freshman and a 50 aiver for the sophomore, junior and senior years. Comrades, this should be appreciated by any Gambian, especially when tuition is skyrocketing. I want to encourage aspiring students to apply at Rust College. We must follow the path of the African National Congress in acquiring some form of education. We cannot assume that being denied the privilege to come to the Gambia is a further denial in our intellectual capacity. With the trends of things taking place in the Gambia, we must be prepared to journey home to help build our country after the unfortunate years of the dirimo of Kaninlai. Please visit www.rustcollege.edu for further inquiring in their admission standards. Again, I want to thank the members of the L for being supportive in every collaborative effort in propagating our desire for democracy. We must provide means to visit institutions or non-public institutions (entities) that are clearly misinformed about our country. The Gambia will one day be free and this dictator will be granted what he deserves. One dictator has left the Congo, and the little hamster of kaninlai is on his way out. Long live democracy and down with dictator yahya jemus. May the souls of our fallen heroes rest in perfect peace. May Kutubo and Ahmadou have speedy recovery. I stand by accusing the dictatorship of killing our comrades.
