Malanding,
Going in for another host may be an immediate or short term solution. Its
about time that someone starts looking into the feasibility of putting
resources together with the objective of not only networking between the
cavalcade of websites/discussion boards sofar in operation, but also putting
on the ground in The Gambia a media outlet that would empower the masses by
making available to them "correct" news. Continual dependence on hosts can
only lead to falling victim to policies way beyond one's control.
Omar Joof.
