>>Alagi,

>>Thanks a lot for your advice. I simply have no intention of satisfying

>>boy's desire to demonstrate to the Jammeh people that he's still one of
>>them. Just for the record, what you said checks EXACTLY with what a

>>actually
>>thought he Harona is my boy, because as soon as I mentioned his name, the
>>guy told me "What are you doing with that clown? Don't tell me he's your
>>boy? He's a big 'Falseor' (phoney.) Oh yes, a big extrovert. A real Jammeh
>>sycophant. He loves suits! Big ties! Foral. Kibiri..." This was EXACTLY
>>what
>>the guy said. I had to tell him to slow down. Also that he Harona only
>>likes
>>to be the center of attention, no matter where. "He was here running after
>>Fat Sanneh all over the place. He even had a problem with Tombong like
>>little school boys, etc, etc" I am quoting verbatim what a reporter told
>>me
>>this morning. I felt sad for the boy because he's so young. But if the
>>mere
>>mention of your name evokes such characterization from people you've
>>worked
>>with in a professional environment, there's something terribly wrong. Sad.
>>That's our Mr. Neutral though, a nationally notorious Yaya Jammeh
>>sycophant
>>and extrovert. So, no sweat here Alagi, I'm through with this boy, because
>>I
>>know exactly what I'm dealing with.
>>Good morning.
>>
>>Saul.
>>

>>I am kindly requesting you to quit this issue with Harona for now and

>>on more pressing ones. There is time for almost everything and when the
>>actual time comes, surely we will be able to identify/ know who is who.
