GAMBIA-L: The e-mail below came from a source. I am again sending it unedited. Also, take note that it was sent to me on Saturday. Ebrima ___________________________________________________________ >To: [log in to unmask] >Subject: Reasons behind the recent Cabinet Reshuffle >Date: Sat, > >Ebrima, >The Dumo Sahor is partly responsible for yesterday's cabinet reshuffle. >Sajo Jallow is being shown the door in a gradual manner. He goes to Youth >and Sports as the final stop before being shown the door. His relations >with MOJA-G and particularly his association with Dumo is making Yahya >nervous. He doesn't trust any thing MOJA after the abduction of Dumo so the >first casualty of the kidnapping of the comrade-in-arms of Sajor is Sarjo >himself. Susan Waffa-Ogoo moves to Fisheries and natural resources where >she will have very little control over many issues, including issuing >fishing licence, which Yahya will still insist on holding on to so that he >can continue to extort money from foreign vessels fishing in Gambian >waters. Had it not been for the regular intervention of members of the >Tamba family, Susan Waffa-Ogoo would have been dismissed a long time ago. >She is being moved from Tourism where she has been giving Yahya hell lately >over land allocation to FTI which the lady refused to do without going >through the procedures laid done by Government. Removing her from Tourism >will make life easier for FTI. Yankuba will not only give FTI any amount of >land that they want and he will do so without consulting the Land >Allocation Board. All he needs is a nod from the Butcher. He will give land >to Amadou Samba and to Yahya's friends. Tourism is dead with Yankuba in >charge. Edward Singhatey has his hands strengthened by being moved to Works >and also responsible for Presidential Affairs and the National Assembly. >Yahya had to do it because he had been warned that he cannot afford to >continue to frustrate Edward. Yahya and Edward will knock heads sooner or >later. We will just watch the two play chess. >Further reshuffle will come after the Butcher resumes from his leave. (What >leave? Yahya has never put in a days work, a friend commented this morning. >For my friend, Yahya has always been on leave,) For now, he is in Kanilai >with little Mariam "Sambou". For those of you who missed my earlier >message, Mariam is the name of the new arrival in Yahya's household. At >last report, both mother and baby Sambou are doing fine. > ________________________________________________________________________ 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 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
