Gambia-L: I am sending the e-mail below unedited. It came from a source in the Gambia. Again, just ignore the typographical errors if there are any. Ebrima >To: [log in to unmask] >Subject: The Janka****Of Kanilai could not buy the farmers groundnuts >Date: Thu, 03 Aug 2000 > >Ebrima, >I believe all of us have now agreed on one thing and that is Yahya Jammeh >is mentally deranged. A so-called Head of State inciting the youth of this >country to flout the Constitution. Speaking in Mandinka, using inflamatory, >uncouth and down right uncivilised language, Yahya has once again >demonstrated his inability to lead The Gambia. A copy of his statement has >been distributed yesterday to all International agencies represented in The >Gambia for the record. It also helps them understand the moron that Jammeh >is and how to deal with him in the future. >One of Yahya's biggest problems is how to face the Gambian farmers come >September/October during his meet the people's tour. The man is scared to >face the farmers to explain to them why he could not buy their groundnuts >in two consecutive seasons. This year will be NO different. He has >destroyed the Gambian economy, the structures have been dismantled by Baba >Jobe with no viable system in place and Yahya knows it. True to form, he >lashes out at those he calls Janka***How can the opposition buy the >farmer's harvests? Is it their responsibility to do so? Of course not. It >is the Janka***of Kanilai whose responsibility it is to make sure that his >Government has a system in place to replace GGC, which they confiscated >from the legitimate owners, to purchase the groundnuts from the farmers. He >is looking for a scape goat but he will not find one. Because he, the >Janka.. of Kanilai, is responsible for the mess that The Gambia finds >itself in. >An insane person, of course, cannot reason and therefore to try and respond >to his illogical statements such as his claim that "this government was not >created by elections, but brought to power by Allah who also wills when it >will come to an end" would be an exercise in futility. All I can say at >this point is that the APRC will do everything within its means to stifle >the efforts of the IEC in organising the upcoming elections. IF APRC HAS >ITS WAY, THERE WILL BE NO ELECTIONS BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY WILL BE TROUNCED >AT THE POLLS. > > ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html You may also send subscription requests to [log in to unmask] if you have problems accessing the web interface ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
