Mr jallow, Thank you for this letter. We owe it to the Gambian people to play our role. Jabou Joh In a message dated 4/20/00 4:16:49 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [log in to unmask] writes: His Excellency Mr., Kofi Annan United Nations Secretary General United Nations Plaza, Room 3800 New York, New York 10017 Dear Sir: We heard with dismay, infact with alarm, of your impending trip to the Gambia ostensibly to inaugurate a new U.N.D.P. Office block. Ordinarily Gambians everywhere and of all political persuasions would have been honored, jubilant to receive the Secretary general of the United Nations, distinguished son of Africa in the Gambia. As things stand now in the Gambia, your visit will only give comfort, succor and legitimacy to the murderous, obnoxious, corrupt and morally bankrupt regime. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
