Mbodge, good and revealing write up. Ljd's emails of Dr. Janneh from a decade says it all. Let's call a spade a spade, the man joined jammeh for his self interest. I believe he would've continued to serve if he wasn't fired. Dr. Janneh is not different from others who, because of self interest, joined the regime and in the end paid heavy prices for it. Going to jail does not make him any mandela, at least for me. If the timeline of events posted here are accurate - media bill and others, then Dr. Janneh has more questions to answer than elevating himself to the ranks of mandela...
