Ansu and Baba Galleh,
I generally read your informative inputs on these boards but I think that you
two owe an apology to Alex for your initial smears about his integrity when this
story first broke. But considering that you don't know Alex from Adam Ant, maybe
not an apology but a retraction.
I don't much trust homo sapiens when large amounts of cash is concerned but I
came in at the time you guys flew off the handle and simply cautioned that you
wait till all the info comes out. Several of us heard then and now that Alex was
NEVER stopped by authorities at any airport; contrary to what you reported here.
He told a colleague about the money BEFORE he left Dakar and turned in the money
as soon as he got to Spain. i.e voluntarily.
As I said, I wasn't gonna go on a limb for Alex but I also knew that he was more
sophisticated than to try to launder money in such a crude manner. Lord knows
that some of us have been in somewhat similar circumstances. On the question of
the motivation of President Wade for instructing a cash gift, I got no idea and
anyone's guess is as good as mine.

We thank you for joining our forum. The purpose of The Gambia Post Forum is
to provide a place for national discourse, a place where we can exchange ideas
and share common interests. The Gambia Post is the largest Gambian online
community on the Web where a variety of issues are discussed. We maintain an
Open Forum for ALL Gambians and Friends of The Gambia, accessible to people of
all works of life, and ages. And so while we understand that it is human nature
to lose one's temper occasionally, a consistent pattern of profanity, especially
against the parents of others will not be tolerated. This may result in a
suspension and if necessary an indefinite ban. Once again, welcome to the Gambia
Post and in the spirit of our motto, we encourage you to 'let your thoughts
fly'.
