Gambia-L: The unedited e-mail below came from a source in The Gambia. I hope Sedat Jobe would come out and tell us what actually has gone wrong between him and Jammeh. Prince: We are still jubilating here, in the wake of our 5-1 victory over Germany. Well, well, two Arsenal players - David Seaman and Ashley Cole - played.

You have heard it from me. Privately Yahya has regretted the >decision to expel Joshi and blamed Sedat Jobe for ill-advising him to take >the decision. Yahya also told the last cabinet meeting that he had to ask >Sedat to resign because he did not want to embarass him and his family if >he sacked him. Yahya also said he considered the fact that Sedat had >resigned his post from UNESCO. Another thing why he is angry with Sedat, he >said, is because Sedat had promised him to stop drinking heavily but failed >to do so. Apparently, Sedat was in tears when Yahya asked him to resign >after the decision to expel Joshi did them more harm than good. > >On another note, WE know you have a tight schedule now but your sources >will appreciate it if you can be around now against the elections. >Thanks. > _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 and remember to write your full name and e-mail address. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
