If Jammeh were to take such action and sue St. Johns it would be a blessing
in disguise to all Gambians because evidence would have to be tendered
against him with regards to the killing of the Gambian school children and
that would help highlight hitherto unanswered questions. Foremost would be
who gave command to execute innocent law abiding school kids, further to
that would be Koro's case and you Ebou Jallow would make a very important
wittness considering all the allegations you made, I hope Jammeh heeds to
your shuttle advice and pursue such a course of action. Litigation is easier
said than done. You don't just walk to the courts get a verdict in favour,
remeber litigation is adversarial hence both partise will tender evidence
eithwer to refute allegations or buttress a point. With regards to Jammeh he
stand no chance and all his dirty laundrette will be out in the open, how
exciting that would be.

In fact Ebou why don't you initiate such an action as a test case,  after
all a lot of things had been said about which you vehemently detested and
regard as libelous. I am sure with all the money stack in you account you
can afford a decent lawyer to fight your case and am sure as a dignified
person you may want your good name cleared.
