The call of the distant drummer, the melodious groans of a forlorn sheep, separated from the herd but for her sonorous yelp. ketung ketungo teh saayaa baayila. We celebrate with Gainako, this her 4th year of education, information, and guidance for us. Thank you Gainako and crew for your tireless efforts. When it seems you're not being heard, lives are being transformed, to join the demure cries. For a critical mass of change. Your success, I declare, cannot be measured nor realized in singular years, but generational gravitation. Take solace in the insignificant metamophorses.
 
I shall find a way to participate in common celebration of your value. The unsung heroes.
 
Haruna.

Gainako Clocks Four (4) Years Today.
 
Dear Readers & Contributors,
 
The entire editorial board of Gainako Online Newspaper wishes to inform you of the paper’s anniversary today the 12th of September 2010. Wow! Time moves so fast. Looking back, it is four years already. An anniversary as can be rightly put is a day to reflect on the successes and failures during the years of operation.  
 
The celebration today is a reminder of what is at stake. Needless to mention, the Gambian press has been seriously muzzled by a dictator who is not ready let go. The oppression of the Gambian masses must be stopped without delay. The case to argue for the justification of the online forums goes on and on non-stop. As newspapers are getting closed and journalists getting jailed timely, the online community will continue to explore technology in making sure voices of descent are not scolded. Enlightenment is in the forefront.
 
In that regard, you are all invited to participate as time permits you. We wish all our readers a happy surfing.  Please visit www.gainako.com to follow the anniversary contributions, yet still Freedom’s radio on www.freedomnewspaper.com .
 
Find below Gainako’s official invitation.  Let your voice echo! Let such echoes shake the earth in Africa, in Europe, in America, in space and beyond!
Thank You,
