<< Jabou,

 The Trans Sahara Trading Company is registered in France, Morocco and Guinea.
 One of the directors is one Mr. Suma, a Guinean of dubious reputation. He
also
 happens to be the father-in-law of someone you know very well. What a
 coincident? Probably the papers back home should go to Kaninlai and ask some
his son-in-law.

This is very interesting Prince, but not surprising I must say. It is just a
continuation of the race to fill their pockets while they can. Yes, the
papers should ask but I wonder if any journalist is safe going to Kanilai to
ask questions if they are not from  the Jammeh praising camp. They may find
themselves faced with our president's favourite phrase to his fellow citizens
 "six feet deep"

However, let's hope a confirmation is forthcoming from Gambia, and  then
donor agencies need to be notified so that they can  find alternatives ways
to get such aid to the people perhaps by using NGO's who can distribute the
aid themselves as opposed to giving it to our corrupt officials to divert and
sell to line their pockets.
