I really do not understand what you are saying? Are you saying that the Senegalese govrnment does not mean it when they say they accept the responsibility for the boat being in operation under the conditions it was in? What purpose would that serve., and what proof do you have to make such accusations, and most important of all, what is your motvation? I think the point here is that responsibility was accepted. As I states earlier that is more than many a culprit to more heinous crimes have done regarding other matters, and you will of course not touch on that at all, even though you are a most ardent advocate of a government that is very much guilty of not accepting responsibility where the yshould. Rather you want to malign those who accept responsibility and even go so far as to question their sincerity and future plans regarding this issue. The only other thing you can mean or are implying is that they will not do anything to make sure that similar disasters like this are averted, and I cannot see how you can make that pronouncement really. I fail to see your point here. However, it is quite obvious by now that you serve as a vehicle for many things my brother, but I caution you lest you also become a vehicle for stirring up discord within the Senegambian sub-region by making unfounded implications and allegations. You are trying to paint the Senegalese officials as monsters who facilitated this tragedy deliberately, and who do not mean it when they say they accept responsibility for the tragedy and who will not do anything to avert something like this happening in the future. That is tantamount to accusing them of conspiracy to kill these people deliberately and that they will not do anything to prevent such a disaster in the future. That is a very serious allegation. What is your motivation here?
