Mr. Sheikh Tijan Nyang, thanks for all the effort you're making for these unfortunate people in Campama. It is unfortunate that I did not read your earlier piece and therefore did not atleast give you some moral, if material support. As I am in the country, I shall be contacting you privately within the next couple of weeks to see how I may be of help. I have on a number of occasions made donations to worthy causes such this and will continue to do so. God bless you and all those helping. Have a good day and bye 4Now, KB Jobe. > > >----Original Message Follows---- >From: Sheikh Tejan Nyang <[log in to unmask]> >Reply-To: The Gambia and related-issues mailing list > ><[log in to unmask]> >To: [log in to unmask] >Subject: Re: THE FORGOTTEN ONE!S OF THE GAMBIA >Date: Sun, 17 Jun 2001 12:13:30 +0100 > >Members of the G L, >I have now come to conclude that the people of Campama are the >forgotten >ones.
