Brother Joe: I want to take this time in thanking you on the weekly update for the election fund drive. Your persistence will pay off one day. I must admit that this week has been interesting on the L. We have spent valuable time debating about the Touray debacle. I just cannot believe most of the comrades in support of the UDP expulsion of Hon. Touray have not yet contributed to the fund drive. I wonder why all the talk and no action. We just cannot exhibit intellectual know how without sacrificing few dollars to our struggle. These actions my some of the comrades clearly indicate an agency theory. We are determined to maximize the profits (win) of the opposition, but some of us are bent of the desire of individualism. Dr. Saine indicated that he would call friends who still have not contributed to our fund drive. I therefore want to borrow a page from him and call on the following people to send in their contributions: Messrs Lamin Manneh, Kebba Dampha, Sanusi Owens, Bamba Laye Jallow, Yahya Darboe, Momodou Olly Mboge, Hamjatta Kanteh and the rest of the gang. We must match our intellectual zeal with our pockets. We just cannot do the talk and don't do the walk. I therefore urge the above to send in their contributions. We can only be serious about our opposition to the dictatorship in The Gambia when we are willing to contribute. Please leave your address on the next weekly update. I will be sending in my monthly unspent miscellaneous expense. I am budgeting to deduct a $10 weekly personal expense for the fund drive initiative. Naphiyo, Comrade ML Jassey-Conteh ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html You may also send subscription requests to [log in to unmask] if you have problems accessing the web interface and remember to write your full name and e-mail address. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
