Thanks Brother Sanusi,
Our beloved sister Fatou Jahumpa knows best why she said this but maybe her whole speech probably continued to add that the reason for this statement t was only to avoid confrontation . We can help out by suggestions on how to amend such words rather than chastise her so I lay this to rest.
I bring this up only to encourage many of the new Gambian graduates including her son to go back and participate in making our homeland Gambia a great palce to be again
Brother Habib
