Comrades:

It is sad for the State House to attack Mr. Lamin Waa Juwara.  How could the writer state that Mr. Juwara was not on the list of family members who wanted to see Sir Dawda?

It is disturbing that the government speaks with one message, while contradicting itself.  In the hope that we can move forward, the writer continued to further indicate a behavior of indifference.  Waa is entitled to see Sir Dawda.  I hope we can take politics out of this situation.

Naphiyo,
Comrade ML Jassey-Conteh
Greensboro, NC/Kombo East Constituency

HELLO,

WE ALL HAVE SEEN THE PICTURES ON NATIONAL TV AND ON THE STATEHOUSE
WEBSITE WHERE FAMILY MEMBERS WELCOMED THE JAWARAS BACK HOME UPON
THEIR ARRIVAL AT THE AIRPORT AND AGAIN AT THEIR RESIDENCE. UNFORTUNATELY,
MR. WAA JUWARA DID NOT FALL UNDER THE LIST OF THOSE FAMILY MEMBERS
THAT THE JAWARAS WANTED TO IMMEDIATELY SEE ON THEIR ARRIVAL BACK.


THERE IS A TIME FOR EVERY PURPOSE UNDER HEAVEN.

Thank you.
