It is always hard being in an African organisation without relative or closed friends.I am positive that Mr saidy is following orders to secure his job like anyone on the list would have done.Disobeying your boss means your dismisssal in our system, and non of us in the list will consider Tonbong if dismissed.We were all once workers in the Gambia and know how it was like.As I always said;we are all opportunist one way or the other,but we hardly see our own opportunistic behaviours.There are people on the list whose relatives are in the government but after the Ebou saga no one dears to tourch him on the L and they are among the heads of the government.Insult was not constitutional in this forum, but recently people were off-tracked. It is very sound talking about abuses of power in the country by Yahya and colleages,which should be addressed to stopped immetiately by any means.I don't know what help will it be attacking Tonbong and the ambassador for working to earn their livings.You are insulting your own brother(Gambian) you have never met without sound grounds, just because he or she happen to working for the government you don't like is undemocratic. So let us practise that we are preaching and stop this childish acts of attacking each other. If this forum is a Government, will it be democratic? hell;I doubt it. Sorry If I offended anyone,I am speaking my mind as a Gambian too. __________________________________________________________________ EDI LK SIDIBEH NAAKANTIE 2C9 DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS & ADMINISTRATION 48320 KOTKA KYMENLAAKSO POLYTECHNIQUE ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: PEACETO EVERYONE ON EARTH.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
