>>    I've always followed your contributions with keen interest; however,
>>there is some kinda villifying term that you are nonetheless willing to
>>use
>>discriminately against a particular group of people; i.e The Jola people.
>>You have just used "sinister Jola ethnocentric agenda", which I find quite
>>offensive. I honestly believe that branding a people this way can be quite
>>dangerous and repulsive.
>>
>>    Don't get me wrong. I do not approve of Jammeh's arrogance nor his
>>nepotism. What I am saying is that, I find it very wrong and therefore
>>unacceptable to brand a people like you always do. This will only help
>>discredit whatever valuable info you have to share with the rest of us. I
>>am
>>aware of the fact that you're somehow connected to the group concerned
>>(blood relations), this is however no justifiable grounds for you to be
>>launching your highly offensive attacks. You have the likes of Yaya Jammeh
>>in every society and in those same societies, you have very noble beings
>>too. The Jolas are no exception in this case, and I think it will do you
>>some good and The Gambia as a nation, to acknowledge it.
>>
>>     I am patiently looking foward to the (positive)impact that my
>>observation will have on your next posting. Keep the fire burning with
>>your
>>invaluable contributions.   Thanks.
