Iam sad about this brutal act of murder. I belief the only language these
people understand is violence and violence. Sooner than later they will
bring themselves down. Iam shocked and angry. Am angry that our country
became the murder capital of the west coast. The killing of such a fine,
talented young man would undoubtedly leave a scar on professional journalism
in the Gambia and a dark cloud of uncertainty hanging over the entire
country.
May Hydara's soul rest in perfect peace.

Am shock and pissed!  An honest and fine professional in Hydara?  What wrong
has he done to warrant such inhumanity?
May God shower him with all mercies and grant him Jannah.
My condolences to his family.

>Hi!
>     I just read this sad piece of news from the pdois mailing list and I
am reeling from the shock. I am hoping against hope that this is a big
mistake. May Allah have mercy on Deyda and grant him Jannah. Can those on
the ground please provide more details? This is indeed a very sad day for
not only Gambian journalism but for the country as a whole.
