Suntou,
 
You like stories don't you? I thought you were busy with your studies. If  
you have taken up a position as marriage counsellor, we are not  interested.
 
Now to the extent your story is accurate and because you find it valuable  to 
share it with us, I have one problem with your actions. Listen  carefully.
 
As the record keeper of an organisation, you have a fiduciary  responsibility 
to maintain the integrity of the records and the privacy of the  members of 
your organisation.
 
1. You ought not tell us what information you have about anyone.
2. You ought not tell us what the nature of your records are.
3. You should not have given information of any member of your organisation  
to anyone UNLESS they have committed a crime against other and the provision 
of  such information is to law enforcement in their efforts to solve the crime 
and  render justice.
4. In your storied case, you should not have given the lady's number to  this 
knucklehead even if he flipped sommersaults.
5. I don't wanna hear what you think the Qur'an says about your behaviour.  I 
already know what the Qur'an says. You should now apologise to this lady  
profusely, and to the extent the problem gets out of hand, you have a culpable  
part to play in it.
 
Now that you have committed a cardinal sin, what you should do to diffuse  
the tension is to report the harassment of this lady to authorities in her  
jurisdiction and her husband in order that she may regain part of her security  
and reassurance. She has been violated, your informing her that you gave her  
phone number to someone (AFTER THE FACT) is no act of consideration. You had  
breached the trust of the lady and indeed of the organisation. You should now  
return the organisation's records and relieve yourself of the custodial and  
fiduciary responsibility. Some acts do not deserve a second chance.
 
Suntou, do you play the Kora????
 
Masoud. MQJGDT. Darbo. Al Mu'Umin. Just when I think you're listening to my  
counsel, you go off the deep end. New Gambians! I take no prisoners. Innahu 
huwa  yubdi'U Wayu Ead, wa huwal Khafoorul wadood. Thul arshil majeed, fa-Aaalun 
Lima  Ureed. Hal Ataika hadeesul khasiah, wajoo-hun yawma-ithin Naa-emah. 
Lisa'Ayihaa  raadiya............. Don't tell us to be careful of your errors and 
omissions.  We would not do what you did. Let us cleanse ourselves before we 
attempt to  counsel others in matters of life.

i was  disappointed yesterday after i received a complaint from a Gambian 
brother in  our city. The issue involved a married sister whose husband is in the 
Gambia  whilst she is in England. I am the record keeper of the Gambia 
association we  have in the city. i have all the contact details of every single 
member man or  woman. Last month, a brother LT ,in his forties called me to get a 
number of  the married sister. remember here this brother is living with his 
wife in our  city as well. he requested me to pass the phone number of the 
sister to him. i  enquire as to why he need the phone number? his answer was 
,well he and the  sister share the same family name and that he want them to be 
brother and  sister. i was hesitant to pass the number. he enquire whether i don 
't trust  him having the number? i said it is not about that but because i 
shouldn't  pass on any body's information without their prior approvals. he said 
sadly  ,''so now there is no trust even in family ties?'' i said
OK, let me hand  you the number and i will contact her to tell her about your 
 request.
i gave him the number. i later called the lady to inform  her about the 
issue.she was happy that some one wish to have a family relation  with her which is 
rare she said. that was the last time i have any thing to do  with the 
situation. 
yesterday afternoon whilst i was having my  rest,my mobile phone rang. an 
older Gambian brother was on the phone his name  is kk. me and kk talk regularly 
about Gambian issues. but this time it is not  the usual discussions.he was 
reporting LT the KOTOKE who took the number from  me. LT is pestering this lady 
.he wanted them to have an affair. the lady said  she ''tried every thing to 
discourage the LT politely but he couldn't stop.''  from being brother and 
sister to being lovers. how sad!!
this is the  same kotoke who took the number from me ,giving the most 
honourable reason. i  was fooled by a bad koteke. the lady said that LT  is the 
second Gambian  brother pestering her. the other one is a marabout TJ who is 
married to an  Indian lady. the sad thing is ,both this brothers are married and 
living with  their wife's yet they are pestering a married woman who is so 
honourable she  decline their infidelity offers out of rest for her husband and her 
religion.  now the pestering is so bad the sister cannot hide the matter any 
more. i was  called to discuss ways in stopping the nuance pestering by the two 
bad behave  brothers (LT and TJ) . our plan was to tell the sister ,if any 
one of this  fools approach you ,tell them you will call the police and that she 
will  inform me and the caller KK to take up the issue.

why should this married men be following a respectable Gambian sister who  
frankly told them that she is married and that she is not interested in  
adultery.yet this stupid fools cannot leave her alone. the sister advice the  KK who 
called me not to discuss the matter with this LT and TJ ,she said  ''they may 
spoil her name and reputation. and their wife's may attack her''. i  was 
shocked and sad at the behaviour of this grown ash koteke's who cannot  learn to 
behave even after the ripe age of 41. when will such men grow up? be  careful 
guys .some explanations are only a smoke screen. i can bring up the  Islamic 
injunctions here but i don't wish to bore any one.
