Mr Gassama!

To begin with, my name is AMADU Kabir, not Abdel Kabir.

Now, your satement above could be quite misleading; that I (personally)did
not deny "the fact that the government has made tremendous progress towards
the development of this country" does not mean that I concur to the
contrary!

Why did I sometimes "feel like a fish out of water?" Precisely because I
did not share some of those views. Please also note the word "surprisingly"
in brackets.

Roads? I even had to take a trip to a welder's to fix my exhaust pipe due
to their sorry state. So please Mr. Gassama, I'm not one of your alibis.

Regards,

Kabir.
