Fina ceesay,

In order to prove to you that no one is perfect, and that mistakes, surely,
are bound to happen, I have decided to call your attention to the fact that
your headline "Tombong Removed" is indeed misleading and inaccurate, as
already pointed out by one Yafatou.

When someone is "removed" from his or her job, it means/implies that the
person has been sacked, or dismissed.

Therefore, if Tombong is now the permanent Secretary in the Office of the
President, as reported by you, then what happened was/is that he, Mr Saidy,
has been "redeployed", or "transferred", to the President's Office, and not
"removed", as your headline insinuated/suggested.
Frankly speaking, Fina Ceesay, removal - in the context you used it -
means, or implies, sacking/dismissal.

Also as far as I know, "Marseille" is a big city in the South Of France
(laughs!). On a more serious note, Mr Thomasi (I also worked under him at
the Information department) spells his name in this way: "MARCEL", not
"Marseille".

He had worked, after he left the Information Department, as an Information
Officer at the ECOWAS Secretariat in Nigeria.

Fina, I thought it would be helpful, if I call your attention to these
mistakes/errors of yours. Anyway, do have a good weekend.
