In response to Jali Gassa,

Jali Gassa: <<I never promised you a rose garden, or did I? Even in the
developed world there are poor people struggling to stay alive and Gambia is
no execption.

My point has always been that despite our deplorablable state, we are doing
our damnest to improve our lot. Remember we are still recovering from the
devastation of the former PPP's thirty-year mis-rule and ineptitude.>>

Can you cite any DEVELOPED country where Grade 9 students are prevented from
taking their final exams because their parents can't afford - thanks to an
irresponsible and corrupt gov't - to pay the exam fees?

And whilst we are at it: can you cite any period during the PPP when 53
Grade 9 students were prevented from taking their final exams because their
parents can't afford to pay their exam fees?

Keep denying the ugly realities of Yaya's dismal record; but the poor farmer
who can't give his children a decent education knows that he fared
relatively better - economically - under the PPP than under this nasty and
brutal regime.
