Daffeh..
You are right ..Sandemungku Jojoh is the original name and should stay that
way...Infact still most elders in niumi calls it that name...I am a
Niumingka myself not by birth but both my Parents are from Albreda or
Albadaar in Mandinka...I wonder how the Niumingkas feel about this name
change..

Niamorkono.
