Gambia-L: I am forwarding the unedited e-mail below on behalf of a source in The Gambia. Please, take note that I am sending it as I have received it. Coach ___________________________________________________________________ >From: To: [log in to unmask] >Subject: YAHYA JAMMEH IS FINISHED >Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2001 > >Coach, > >Thanks once again for your 29th message to Gambians everywhere. Seedy Ahmed >and the rest of us will make sure that it receives wide circulation in the >days ahead of D-Day. It appears that all of a sudden Gambians have awakened >to the maladministration of the Jammeh regime. On the surface this might >appear not to be the case, but The Gambia and Gambians have been going >through a thorough and a profound soul-searching process, weighing ALL that >has transpired since the July 22 1994 coup d'etat and what came after the >1996 "elections" which transformed Yahya into a civilian president. >Gambians being the ever forgiving people they are, were prepared to give >the young and inexperienced president a chance to prove himself.But what >did the moron do with this once-in-a-life time opportunity? He blew it up. >He was convinced that by terrorising the population, he could get away with >everything. I remember Blaise Jagne calling Yahya on the phone and >insulting "mandinkas and fulas" and recommending to Yahya that they should >be further intimidated because Gambians are only worried about saving their >jobs; this was on the phone when Blaise Jagne was at the Foreign Affairs. >Those surrounding him are very well aware of the nonentity and the >ill-educated "boss" he is and so they carried him by the hand and in the >process where profiteering from the situation at the expense of The Gambia >and her peoples. Well, they have under-estimated the tolerance level of the >Gambian people and have miscalculated the support they were expecting from >the voters. Being the slow-learners they are, it only dawned on them after >their campaign tour of URD that they were finished. That's the reason why >Fatoumatta Jahumpa Ceesay spent the entire night posting messages on the >Gambia-L. You cannot blame her; she is a desperate woman who needs help >psychologically, emotionally and physically. She knows that the game is up. >Gambians are ready to march to State House on Thursday to install their new >President: President Ousainou N. Darboe. The military came out clean >today. We hope that the police will do like wise. The burning down of the >Local Government Department should be investigated thoroughly and >professionally, devoid of politics. The Opposition will do nothing to >jeopardise their insurmountable lead in the polls. Coach, take it from me, >YAHYA JAMMEH IS FINISHED. > _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp <<//\\>>//\\<<//\\>>//\\<<//\\>>//\\<<//\\>>//\\<<//\\>> To view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html <<//\\>>//\\<<//\\>>//\\<<//\\>>//\\<<//\\>>//\\<<//\\>>
