Hi Dampha, Thanks for bringing this up. Like you, I never remember coming across such a stipulation in the Gambian Constitution, however, I do not believe there is any such clause. LJD is here with us, probably upon time conveniene, he can help explain this to us. That said, Jammeh will be the first victim of this law if it is in existence because he is a devil worshipper. Your naration is accurate, in that according to a visiting friend of mine from the Gambia, a visiting magician from Freetown touched on a boy during the said festival in Kanillai, it gave the image of Jammeh. Jammeh declared him his personal marabout. He instructed his boys that any time the marabout sets foot in the Gambia, he (Jammeh) should be notified. Two guys from Serrkunda invited this guy for some work, and upon the guy's arrival at Banjul Int' airport, the boys phoned Oga to notify him. Oga instructed them to follow the man's destination. Upon arrival, the two that invited the magician were arrested for sharing marabout with Professor Jammeh. I cannot ascertain if the two are related in any way. You shouldn't at all and never be surprised. Foroyaa has a word for it. It is called "IMPUNITY." A friend once told me "dictators don't trust even their shoes." The noise from their shoes will scare them to death, because they think their alleged foes are after them always. The state of complexity is very sad and unfortunate. That is where Jammeh happens to find himself. Regards, & happy new year. yj On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 6:01 PM, lamin dampha <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > YJ, colleagues > > As am not familiar with the constitution of our country,i just want to ask > whether there is a clause in the constitution thats talks about (Criminal > Charmed).I have never heard this kind of charges in my life time.These > peoples are being charged for making a criminal charmed and to my suprised > the marabout who made the charmed is being freed and allowed to return to > freetown. > This young marabout was seen on GRTS participating in the cultural > week during the last roots festival at kanilai, he was present doing his > magic things in front of the president.The reason for the arrest of these > peoples really disturb and makes us worried, especially the arrest of the > goldsmith Mr mbowe for just selling them silver or gold. > ���������������������������������������������������������¤ To > unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web > interface at: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html > > To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: > http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-l To contact the > List Management, please send an e-mail to: > [log in to unmask] > ���������������������������������������������������������� -- yj There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is His messenger. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
