Hon. Sis. FJC, I did not know that Jawara is now APRC.  Not that I care
about his political affiliations, but in light of his impending return from
exile, I think Gambians deserve to know.  So, could you please forward the
Observer article you alluded to, to the membership.  Thanks for your
cooperation in advance.
