Mr. Colly, Keep this coming. These revelations are really welcome. They're filling a void/gap that many of us have in our understanding of how a dim bulb like Jammeh operates a system. Also, for historical accuracy, it helps to have first hand reports that one could verify from incontrovertible sources. On "Paul Gomez," I was also fooled for a while, because I simply didn't have time to take a closer look at the fellow's yapping. I spent 90 min yesterday doing just that. And I have to say that my friend Hamjatta is absolutely right. Paul Gomez is Alieu Keita is Essa Sey. If Prince's original analysis, or Hamjatta's adviser's do not convince you (Essa is the only person here who uses "arts" to describe people's writings,) I'll tell you what I've found out. When you compare Paul Gomez's writings to Alieu Keita's, and Essa Sey's, several things stand out, but the two most outstanding things (unique signature) that reveals conclusively the ID of the person behind all these names is: a.) Feigned Over-familiarity with opponents b.) A scatter-brain "foot print." To understand a.), refer to his Ebrima "Jogomai" Ceesay attacks, and his invocation of Karamba Touray's wife/former wife "Salamata" and the two little girls recently. The only motive behind throwing out such "secret" info about these people is to give those who don't know any better, the idea that he Essa "really knows" these people's background, and could therefore silence them if he so wish. Typical Essa. In truth, being the small nation we are, one could find someone who knows some little bit about anybody worth knowing something about. I know for a fact that he Essa Sey is from Kuntaya, went to Armitage School, was in the army, then studied in Senegal, etc. Some time last year, I went with a friend to his house in Silver Spring, MD. We walked in, and the message signal was flashing on the phone set. He played it, and guess who it was? Our "son excellence" Monsieur Ambassador Essa Bokarr Sey. He had tried to call Ma Boy's sister inlaw. She wasn't in. Most normal people would just leave the woman a message, and ignore other extraneous stuff. Not our Ambassador. He left a short message for the woman that he has called, and then blurted out to Ma Boy on the machine that "x, for you, we'll see on the G-L. This year, we'll kill each other on this L. You people think you're, hmmm." He trailed off. If he hadn't identified himself, I wouldn't have believed it was him. The message was crude, childish, undignified, and totally un-ambassadorial. We played that tape three times marvelling at how any one like that can be a nation's Ambassador. In any normal country, the man won't qualify for a Class President. But, that's our Essa, Ambassador Extraordinaire. In his parlance, I guess this info makes me an "expert" on him. I make no such claim. b.) On the scatter brain "foot print," review how Essa Sey, Alieu Keita, or Paul Gomez, would start one topic, leave it incomplete, and jump into another. As if that isn't enough, his (irritating) trade mark cuck-a-doodle-doo doesn't change: he starts a paragraph in the first person, then he'll switch to the third person, then back again to first, etc, etc. Ever heard of Dolly, the cloned sheep? Well, geneticists couldn't do better if they tried to clone Essa Sey as Paul Gomez or Alieu Keita. Also, in almost every other piece, he'll drop a few French, or Wollof words here and there, or some other irrelevant quotation. If you can understand what the fellow was trying to say about science, and biology, you got my nomination for Man of The Year. And yes that beloved "art" word. If you ever need entertainment on weekends, pull up these trio from the archives, and see how he kept trying to hide his ID by sometimes shifting "art" to unusual places. But, like the retard he is, he unwittingly splatters his marks all over the place. Only in Yaya Jammeh's Gambia will you have someone like Essay as an Ambassador. You're incredulous because Paul Gomez behaves so outrageously that you can't believe an Ambassador -even Yaya Jammeh's- would be like that. Well, I guess, you've just discovered why Essa (if some informants are to be believed,) is Yaya Jammeh's most trusted ear outside Gambia. They're close because they have so much in common. And if you don't believe anything else, believe this: Essa Sey has cost more people in the Gambian Foreign Ministry their jobs than anyone else in the history of that Dept. No exaggeration. The man is engaged in a relentless crusade to weed out all "opposition sympathizers" in the Foreign Service. Corner someone at one of the foreign embassies and hear what they have to say about Essa. Don't be fool by his scatter-brain psyche: he's mean, he's a pro-Yaya Jammeh fanatic, and All-and-Every type of Dirty Trick is fair game to him. Don't ever forget that. I was going to continue enjoying him and Mafy, but after reading your piece, I realize you're in the position I was last week. Enjoy "son excellence's" art if you will, because Paul Gomez IS Essa Sey. You can take that to the bank! Saul. >EBOU COLLY: > >WOW! Great job once again.
