Mr Boye; Can you kindly explain why what you wrote below cannot be construed as a statement attacking the Gurrmet? It is my belief that although you claimed to have looked close enough, you never took the time to double check your posting, but yet preferred to speculate as long as no one bothered to look and point out your obvious misinformation regarding Manu Kumba. You wrote: Word has it that the catholic(gurrmet) connection which is very strong in the APRC/government ranks have been working strategically to place christians in positions of power in todays government and despite the fact that they form the minority of the population the same cannot be said of the positions of power they occupy ie SOS Works, SOS Fisheries and Environment, SOS Justice, SOS Education, Secretary General, P.S. Presidents office,Accountant General, NAM Banjul South, NAM Banjul Central to name a few. Word further has it that the gurrmet connection, just like the jola connection make sure that their numbers will continue to increase and not decrease, which is why you hardly hear of christian or a jola fired for that matter. It is a subtle but effectively campaign which you will hardly notice unless you look close enough.
