Ehem! Let me clear my throat! The Emperor is in town and His direct line to the $42,000 Presidential Suite and lodging for entourage at the Grand Hyatt is:[678]488-1899. Upon calling, some crack-head NIA Agent, interrogated me for about five minutes and put me on hold and put me through His Mis-Excellency. As a pro [disguised visitor to Gambia, during the last Roots festival] discussion started out cordial, ranging from until I asked about thousands of $$$ donated to Senegal and Mauritania, even though Gambian farmers are starving and trek to Senegal to hawk their harvest. The clown flipped on me: " Maa Nduaka Ndeyam...Sumah Haalis la..Kumah Neh laa koh Mey" Translation: explicit MF...It's my wealth...I dole it to whom ever I want. I cut him off by asking about April 10-11 and the Coalition's hell-bent on dethroning him from the Emperorship: He exploded again.."Domi Haraam Yi, Yenang Fi Di Rahas Taat Ti Tubaab Yi Ak Senn Nakeyi"...Bohlen Nyo weh Banjul, Di Nah Leen Rendi kom Ganaar.. Translation: You SOB's, you're in the USA washing white Folks behind and homes; When you come to Gambia, you'll be slaughtered like chicken. Click, the Emperor slammed the phone on me. I redialed the # and changed my voice and accent, this time with an eccentric Faana Faanah accent. The NIA jester, sensed the tone and made remarks to the effect that: The emperor is tired and will try to address the Gambian masses on the internet. Perhaps, George and karamba [GambiaPost] or Seneweb, should take him on this offer. Please call and welcome him these shores of USA and report your experience back to the folks on the Bantaba. Wahh Duul! Noppi Deyh! Yahya's interpretation: Absolutely, no dissenting voice against Yahya or A[F]PRC, or NIA thugs will beat, maimed or kill victim; Being apolitical or intimidated, ultimate faith is Suddent Death Syndrome, #1 killer of Gambians since July 22, 1994 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/CGI/wa.exe?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
