Hi Ebrima,
Can your source give us more details about the Hajj? I have my mum, aunts
and uncles - given 1st, 2nd and 3rd plane. As your source said they have
been asked to watch/listen to TV/Radio. I have been calling 3x a day since
thursday and nobody can tell me what is going on - just the same
watch/listen to the TV/Radio. Correct me if am wrong but I think the
Committee should have given a press conference to public or rather give them
all the necessary details when they were at MaCarthy Square to collect their
suitcases. They cannot tell me what plane/air line is flying them + + + +.
Thanks!
