There goes the infallible Gassa again. This slimeball wants to slaughter the cow, eat all the meat, chew the bones, use the hide to sleep on, the horns to decorate his house and on and on. Those of us, concerned Gambia's and friends of Gambia, will never allow our hard-earned tax dollars to go to corrupt and regime, with no strings attached. Gassa doesn't have an inkling of, or pretends not to know, what this 608 is about or how it works. This is the time to keep the pressure on this regime to conform to decent rules of law and release Dumo et al. stop the wanton disregard and abuse of human rights of its citizens. Start calling the State Department or better off, write to inform your local and national representatives on this issue of US-Gambia relations. Coz' you better start being honest to yourself. Ams If your education is not about gaining real power, not jobs, because your jobs do not represent real power; not getting elected to office; fine clothes; cars; or houses. If it is not about representing real power, you're being miseducated & mislead, hence, you will die educated and mislead. If your analysis of African issues is merely an exercise of feeling good about yourself and your immediate surrounding, then you will die feeling good.
