Happy anniversary to Gainako, and cannot believe that it has been seven years. It is indeed a fact that Gainako is one of the trailblazers in our search for a democratic Gambia, but in that spirit Gainako has demonstrated the need to focus on what is important. Gainako continues to expand the conversation, and never lure into the propensity to sensationalize...yes it should always be about the story.

 

Thanks Demba and the gang

I celebrate with Gainako yet another glorious year of informing and educating the public. Congratulations Gainako on your 7th anniversary.

Yero and Demba, I missed participating in earlier anniversaries but I intend to participate this time. I already have an ongoing conversation at Dr. Suzana Dodgson's site and I will forward it to you for publication as my contribution to your anniversary celebration. You should have the conversation in the editor's box later this evening.

Thanks for all you do at Gainako. I enjoyed Omar's poem too. It was brilliant.

Haruna.

A Poem: The Cattle in their Rows
 
By Omar Joof
In rows refine like nature
The cattle return from the fields
Their heads in a fine line
The rhythm of their feet baffling
Everyone is kept in the rows
The cattle keep in their rows
Following paths created by habit
The regular thumbing of feet
Moving to and from feeds
Keeping strictly to basic needs
The cattle remain in their rows
Rushing to their sheds
Cows with calves hurrying
Bulls pronouncing commands
All maintain natural roles
The cattle are in their rows
Herdsman protecting from behind
Dog moving up and down the rows
A splendor of dust on the horizon
Moving into security of sheds
The cattle in their rows
After feeding in the fields
Moving back to sheds
The majesty of their cohesion
Beauty of nature at work
