>Hello Coach,

>Allah's Bank is really running low on funds.  Well, actually we knew last
>year that the state of the Bank's finances is precarious.  How?
>We all know, every year, the Saudi Government sends surplus sacrificial
>meat to 'miskins' around the world. Gambia has been a beneficiary of this
>programme for over 15 years. Upon arrival, the meat is distributed to the
>poor throughout Gambia.
>
>However, last year the sacrificial meat was highjacked by Yahya Jammeh to
>feed his crocodiles and other beasts at his Kanilai zoo while Gambians who
>need it most go hungry.
>
>We will be watching him this year. For your information, the Saudi
>Government has already been informed of the fact that last year Yahya
>Jammeh stole over half of the consignment of meat to Kanilai to feed his
>exotic collection of wild beasts.
>
>This year, we will station a team at the Customs, Kanilai and environs to
>monitor the distribution.  Any hanky panky will be reported to the Saudis.
>The APRC cannot leave hundreds of Gambians stranded in The Gambia,
>preventing them from performing the Hajj this year, thanks to their
>ineptitude and then turn around and deprive poor 'miskins' of the
>sacrificial meat meant for them.  We will not accept it.  So watch out,
>Yahya Jammeh. We will be watching. YOU HAVE NO SHAME.
