Mr. Sulayman Sankareh, you said Banding Drammeh is a renowned Islamic Scholar in West Africa. Anyway i am not trying to discredit him but sources informed me that he got a BSC in sociology and Arabic Language. Is this true? Could you tell us more about his islamic education as you did for Sheik Imam Fatty? Certainly he is from a renowned and respected Islamic family in Kombo Brikama and must have learned a lot from his fathers' "Maglis" but i have serious doubt about his higher Post Maglis Islamic education.
