Kabir, I really do not know what anyone can say to to Pa Nderry that he will
ever listen to. Someone sends him private mail and he forwarded it to the L
and he still calls himself a journalist. Something must be wrong with him
or he has an agenda for the way he operates.

>>with
>>you on the phone rather than email. Don't misconstrue any of these

>>was way back 25yrs ago, and please don't misinterpret any of these things
>>with that. So many people are worried about these posting regarding
>>Mamie's
>>delivery. I will tell you that privately cos you are my brother.
>>First of all, you are going to creat a problem that can hurt not only
>>Gambians, but others too. I think you need to do more research on how the
>>US
>>healthcare delivery system works with regards to child birth. Let me tell
>>you few things i know and this applies to even Gambians resident in the
>>US.
>>Anyone giving birth without insurance goes to ER( emergency room) and they
>>will let you deliver and takecare of the baby. After that you are billed
>>and
>>the thing is that you don't give them your right details( that is DOB and
>>
>>address, and SS#). They even give them addresses that will never match
>>their
>>real address for it not to be in their credit report. the child will have
>>all medical coverage as a citizen(Infant) under medicare. The only time
>>the
>>mother gets attention after the birth is when the well being of the child
>>is
>>at stake. I live at raleigh and i have seen that for someone from Gambia
>>like Mamie and someone resident in Raleigh for more than seven years at
>>that
>>time with papers, but have no medical insurance. The medicare covers both
>>infants and the elderly under both fedaral and state law. My cousin was
>>here
>>not long ago and her bills were sent to my address and she was in the US
>>for
>>6yrs before going home finally 3yrs ago. They will never be able to match
>>her real identity without her SS# or correct DOB and address. My own
>>brothers kids deliver here in DC and one was $13,000 and the other was
>>less
>>than $8,000 cos they spend less days in the hospital. Maybe only yaya and
>>few Gambians that want VIP treatment pays for the delivery bills. My other
>>brother who was studying here have insurance coverage and that was
>>different. Asked the married people in Raleigh about this( or Sankareh).
>>Secondly, this can affect so many people when you put wake med or RCH and
>>other healthcare facilities delivery centres in the picture. This reminds
>>me
>>when my cousin was almost force out to leave a day before her Dr initially
>>plan to discharge her. They were asking her to give them any amount as
>>down
>>payment. They even asked me if i am her husband. She keep telling them
>>that
>>she has a boyfriend in jail in another state and she is not married. This
>>was in a public health facility.
>>Thirdly, your postings is on the web and everybody reads them. This can
>>start creating problems for our people back home seeking Visas especially
>>
>>those pregnant women. You know the benefits of US citizenship. You see i
>>don't want my son to go through what i went through. In 2000 observer
>>reported the arrest of five Gambians in Raleigh( Is Cham, Sual n others
>>asked Sankareh about that), and i was at the US embassy for student visa
>>and we were all turned down. I can remember the consular telling me that
>>"
>>when we issue you people student visas for studies, you don't take your
>>studies seriously"
>>Pa I think you are doing a good job with Yanks and his boss corruption
>>scheme, but the issue of Mamie can backfire in the future. We have more
>>pressing issues worth of news item than mamie's expectancy in my humble
>>opinion.You also need to be verifying some of your news items before you
>>publish
>>them. I know it is not easy to get the shots especially in the Gambia
>>where its difficult to get any official comments for the private press.
>>Other news items are easy to verify. For instance the Bel Dame story, the
>>guy is called Bas Bel Dame and his real name is Basirou Gaye and the guy
>>in
>>the shop is Vieux( veyeh Jobe). They have been in the Gambia before
>>94(wellington st.) and now (boxbar)they do all of yayah's and most big
>>guns
>>their clothes and even myself. He is Ndeneh's friend.
>>Anyways i got to go now. You have a bright future a head of you as a
>>journalist, so don't let any little amount of sensational reporting
>>overshadow your brilliant work. I hope you will take this little advice
>>in
>>good faith. Not everybody will be please by your postings and even myself
>>may not be please with all of it. The mamie stuff is really worrying to
>>many
>>including myself. My concern is the future repercussions. I am in my
>>finals
>>and that's why i didn't do this earlier. I will talk to you later.
