Elhajj, thanks for the confidence you bestowed in me.  If I have a third
party corroboration such as the Swiss Bank etc., I will name any guilty
Gambian.  I am not afraid to name anyone and I do not differentiate thieves.
  A thief, is a thief, and a thief.  I can confidently call Jammeh a thief
because he was named in the Ebou Jallow saga.  All I need from you is to
point me to evidence such as court transcripts and you will see what I can
do with it, and I do not care if my best friend is the accused.  I grew up
with Ebou Jallow's brother, Poll, but that is no reason for me to keep
quiet.  Sir, the amount of energy you put forth defending Ebou, why don't
you use the same vigor and assist me in identifying the people you have in
mind.  I also care less, what friends of thieves think of me.  It is our
duty as a Gambians to speak out on anyone that was caught stealing from our
people.  I am not forcing you to do anything.  You brought this issue up in
your defence of Ebou Jallow, therefore, it is incumbent on you to speak your
mind.  If you insist that you are afraid to call out the big thieves, then
I'll take your word for it.  So, if you are not willing to call on other
thieves that you know off, why don't you leave us with the calling and stop
delaying progress.  Elhajj, this is not the first time you jumped in defence
of Ebou Jallow.  A year or so ago (on GL/Voice Out) you came in his defense
when I took him on and I just ignored your comments.  You knew of this issue
at least a year ago, if not more.  I respect your right to stick your neck
out for your friend, but you also cannot muzzle me on the process.  Please
check with your friend, Ebou, he has all the court transcripts.  Elhajj,
always count on me to call it like it is.  Let me know your thoughts.

Chi Jaama
