It's a big shame that some people can do or say anything just to satisfy
their greed. What a pity...

We still have a long way to go.

>>Hi folks,

>>The posting below is why I've always been calling this Jammeh government

>>and
>>firings
>>is by no means complete, and will certainly continue to grow for as long

>>Jammeh at the helm.  What a way to run a nation ...
>>
>>And briefly, I suggest that recent reports of the lifting of Decree 89 be
>>seen as no
>>big deal.  The fact of the matter is that the Decree was itself criminal
>>because it
>>denied people their fundamental human rights.  By repealing the Decree,
>>President
>>Jammeh has again displayed his classic self:  deny people their rights,
>>and
>>give it
>>back to them as if you're doing them a favor.  It is precisely this
>>mentality that
>>the nation, it's resources, and peoples' rights are play-things for
>>President Jammeh
>>that is so disgusting about this government.  Needless to say, the
>>attitude
>>is helped
>>in no small way by the fact that President Jammeh has an endless pool of
>>selfish, and
>>greedy hypocrites to pick and choose from to serve him.  How sad ...
>>
>>I gotta go.  Have a great week, and best wishes.
