What utter nonsense you're trying to force down our path? Could you tell us, 
how many of the following are being utilized or exist in the hospital system: 
They include motorised beds and mattresses,
blood pressure stands, a treadmill with monitor, EKG machines,
nebuliser-asthmatic drug dispensers, a breathing therapy machine,
defriburator – heart regulating machine, a dialysis machine, infusion pumps
and automatic bynamaps.
 You seemed to be hibernating in a surreal Jammehism world. Why is your first 
lady heading to the USA for an annual checkup? The thousands of dollars, she 
and her baby will be paying for medical and traveling expenses, could have 
gone toward purchasing one or two of such equipment's. Beg! Beg! Beg! When 
will it end? To prove you wrong, I sneaked into Banjul last year and happened 
to visit the April 10-11 maimed student and victims of Yahya Jammeh at 
PRIVATE BLOCK, what an eerie feeling? I sincerely wonder, whether you've ever 
visited hospitals in South Africa, Egypt, Zimbabwe, Dakar or Ouagadougou? 
Stop living in La-La land.
