Cousin Prince,

Thanx for sharing. I join you in mourning the loss of a national treasure in Ebrima Sagnia. I hope Hasoum and the new Film Council can celebrate Ebrima's life meaningfully and in style. May Allah receive him and grant him reprieve.

Haruna.

Alningbara Kambiya L Bantabamolu,

Why do our heroes die so soon? I am finding it difficult to digest news of 
Ebrima Sagnia's passage. Mr. Sagnia was my former professional boss at GRTS and 
was just appointed Chairman of the Standing Committee on Film.

I am have been eagerly hoping to meet him again in Banjul after so long.

The government agencies told me he was recovering I never realized his sickness 
was so grave. Of late he could not attend to emails.

I sent out my condolences to the Ministries of Culture and Tourism and the 
National Council for Arts & Culture.

Until a new Chairman for film policy regulatory process is appointed we mourn. 
Am ready to Chair the Committee without asking for payment for my services but 
then The Gambia Government should reciprocate by paying my return flights to and 
from the face-to-face sittings in Gambia as a kind of token of appreciation. The 
fact that I already prepared the draft policy shows I am already fully involved.


On another matter, I would like to thank all the Editors who ran and did not run 
my interview with Standard Newspaper (which will follow next week on print 
version of STANDARD as am  just told in an email from the Editor's team). I hope 
it will melt away the misconceptions that shrouded my unceremonious departure 
from the national broadcaster.

MAY THE DEPARTED SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE.
