Ebou, save us your crocodile tears and get lost.  What is this split
personality syndrome you're exhibiting?  Right after the Presidential
elections we were your enemy and in your own words, you owed an apology to
Yaya and Yaya alone.  You then became extinct, only to appear from your fox
hole to put together a war council, against none other than your pal Yaya.
When we unmasked your treachery, you decided to reach into your bag of
sleaze to cry over our shoulder for mercy.

I told you this several years ago and I'm going to repeat it again, you have
to pay for your crimes to the Gambian people and there is no statute of
limitation for your crimes.  I, for one, don't give a hoot for your tricks.
Regardless of what government is in power, you step in that country and your
immediate address will be Mile Two, and you can take that to the bank.
Don't be concerned about loneliness, for you shall have lots of company in
Yaya, Baba, Singhateh and countless others.  Speaking of Singhateh, someone
asked why we don't mention him amongst the criminals in the Gambia.  He is a
yes boy to Yaya and believe me he is one of the most wanted if there is
change.  Between Singhateh, Yaya, and Ebou Jallow Jammeh, we shall know the
truth about who murdered Koro Ceesay and many others.  In the animal called
yaya, Edward is the tail and Yaya the head.  So, you deal with the tail when
you get rid of the head.  So, keep acting the fool on us, we shall have the
last laugh in this your comedy.

Chi Hai

Joe Sambou
