It was the Nyangs actually seeking and extension to tobaski. Beran -----Original Message----- From: Sheikh Tejan Nyang [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2000 6:03 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: TOBASKI PETITION List Members, It was reported in the Saudi times that a petition received from The Gambia signed by the Jagne!s, Jobe!s, Jeng!s and Faal!s appealing for a repeal of the tobaski feast to be held every month instead of once every year. A reply which originated from the palace and signed by Sheikh Abdul Habib Ghanim regrets to inform the undersigned that the feast of Tobaski is celebrated only once every year. On receipt of this reply, the Jengs, Jagnes, Jobes and Faals have decided to go on hunger strike for the Tobaski. The question is Can they manage ? Happy Tobaski to all. Chi Jamma, Bro Sheikh Tejan Nyang. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
