Just for the record, I am not integrated yet. My cousin Fakoo Fakoo knows that but he insists on integrating me. I am not ready to share my superiority yet. Besides what will I get for being integrated with lesser humans??? No one has made a sound proposition to me yet. Haruna.

Didn't you remember accusing me of a bigotry just a week ago on the IMF topic. What warrant you to think, my mere use of Dooba, you get so offended you started lining up your asssume accomplice. So I careless about what you may try to manufacture. But as i said, Who is sheldtering Cassamance rebels in Talinding, Faji Kunda and other 'daagaa' or beer palours in Serrekunda? Who is funding their rebel live styles of crossing back and forth in the Bafuloto and Gunjure forest areas? Hence, go and tell him that, Senegal is one country which should remain united. If for some reason Cassamance is neglected, they should bring it to the government's attention to distribute the wealth justly, not fighting for decades for sepration. And also, tell your President that, he has no right to deny Gambians their share of the national resources, so he should desist from threatening those who will not vote for him. On tribe and language, I enjoy mine and I am pretty so, whatever culture or tribe you adopted, you enjoy it as well. I know, my enjoyment of my culture or ethnicity confuse some people to the extend that, they conclude that, I must be the biggest supra-Mandingo nationalist about. I am not in place to wire their brains for them to look beyond my enjoyment of Mandinka culture, music, traditions etc. Can't I easily stupid accusation about other who name their media houses after their heritage? Can't I easily question why, STDGP for instance will call their radio program Baati Rewmi instead of a neutral name for Unity sake? But hell, what does it matter that, people enjoy their language and utilises it sometimes. Do we now have to question people's use of their belove vanaqulas here? Let us relax and stop maligning each other. You see Fankung, even in my enjoyment of Mandinka traditions, there are certain aspect i don't like and I criticise, so should some Mandinkas go out and brand me, self-hating, they are more than welcome. Should some Fulas or others somehow make it out that, I am tribalist, they are more than welcome to think so. It is all the same for me. What counts is how I conduct myself. I am not perturbed by what you and anyone thinks. So the earlier you stop accusing me, the better for you. Because you cannot table any facts that, I am what you claim I am., You on the other hand, lies here that you are a Junior economist, you even promise to supply me some data from your Central Bank. How funny. Let us discuss the Gambian politics. Support Yahya in whatever way you see fit, and I will support the UDP the i find appropriate. i am not into the end justify the means camp. Lastly, the UDP is an institution that is here to stay. If we chose Yahya Jallow as our Presidential candidate tomorrow, our supporters will vote for him, likewise Femi, Amadou Taal or Sanneh, Ebou Manneh Or Mt Nyassi etc. So the mega lies peddled are all out of one man's quest to derail the good and solid efforts of others and he has failed, because, we are not a one man institution in the diaspora or at home.
