Mr. Small, I'm just trying to re-assure Gambians in the diaspora that indeed
relations between our two sisterly countries is very strong contrary to what
was implied by Ebrima's source. I am sure you will agree with me when I say
that good relations between the Gambia and Senegal must be maintained at all
cost regardless of who is in power. Or would you rather see a Senegal that
is suspicious of our desire for peace in Casamance?
I eagerly await your response.
Have a good day and bye 4Now, KB Jobe.
