A full page ad was ran yesterday(Monday) on both the Point and independent newspapers. I want to thank list members who supported the idea and made it possible. I found editors at both papers to be very professional and businesslike. Here is what the ad said: "Today we join our fellow citizens in prayer and reflection to mark the second anniversary of the brutal student killings. The collective conscience of our nation remains blighted by both the creul nature of the crime and the patent denial of justice to the families of the victims.To remain true to our shared values, The Gambian people must insist that those who have been killed and maimed receive fair judicial redress within the confines of our laws. Mass murder is an intolerable crime especially when the victims by dint of their age both expect and deserve protection. We demand a real and thorough judicial inquest followed by vigorous prosecution of all responsible culprits. We pray that The Almighty continue to grant the following departed souls eternal blessing and continue to imbue those of us who are witness to the tragedy inflicted on them the moral rectitude to continue to stand our efforts in standing up for what is right for The Gambia and it's people. We shall never forget you. Bamba Jobarteh Abdoulie Sajaw Calisco Preira Burama Badjie Karamo Barrow Reginald Carrol Omar Barrow Weyyeh Massally Momodou Chune Lamin .A.
