Thank you, jambo! Happy Tobaski to all Muslim Bantaba members, and Happy New Year to everybody!
Unfortunately, I had an accident during my Christmas holidays. I am better now, but I must stay in hospital for 3 weeks more. My right arm is affected, so it is very difficult for me to write. But i read the postings and hope to contribute again in a few weeks - inch'Allah. |

I thank God for giving me and my family another opportunity to withness this year's tobaski (eid-ul adha), so are the many contributors and readers here and everwhere else.
I hope and pray God Almighty will answer the prayers of all positive-minded humans to change the world for the better, i.e provision of peace, love, harmony and all basic amenities everywhere.
A lot of things are happening which are obviously wrong to the eye and the mind.
I wish the oppressed, disabled, sick and suffering a faster recovery and worldly pleasures and treasures.
"O! True Guardian, make us not die except as muslims." amen.
Happy eid!! |

Sab & all,
happy celebration. sometimes life gets too busy, but good not to forget the bantaba family, where a of lot I's are getting dotted.
Sab,Your previous posting is valued. Gainako will promote such agendas,in fact senior editor Demba Baldeh is consulting all the team.
I also spoke with Binneh Minteh, he briefed me about such programs being in the pipe line.
As usual, elders must look after the younger ones. I greatly like that attribute of contributors.
Best regards to your entire family. I wish all contributors, readers and our forum administrators well. We hope this forum will be legacy after us, a place for great educational research.(inshallahu)

Happy new year to the entire Bantaba family. I hope the new year will usher in great ideas as to how to move our country in particular and the world at large forward. I may have stepped on some feet , my excuses and those that have hurt me during the past year i have forgiven and look forward to fruitful debates in the future.
Finally i wish Serenata a speedy recovery and all other members not fine at the moment. |

Late, but heartfelt, New Year greetings to you all. A speedy recovery to Serenata and my sincere hopes that you will all achieve what you wish for in 2007. I was lucky enough to spend tobaski in Gambia and was invited for tobaski lunch - really good but I fear I ate too much.... On New Year's day I walked in the sunshine. And all week I met with friends (though I missed meeting up with Gambiabev - maybe next time!) and now I am home watching the rain against the window.... I feel lucky to have found this bantaba and look forward to getting to know people more this year.

I am just back! I went to Tobaski in Pirang. I went to the prayers with my friends mother. There were about 2000 people there, it was quite an experience!!!
Then the Ram was slaughtered in the compound. I didnt watch the cut, but watched everything else from a short distance. The Ram took a long time to die and I found that quite disturbing. I was impressed with the butchery and how nothing is wasted. I also like how things are shared around with those that dont have anything. The Ram cost me £55 and I am still baffled how any ordinary Gambian family can afford it. Then we visited people and gave a little money and people visited us. I had a lie down and a little sleep too. Great hospitality! I have never greeted so many people in my life!
At night I went back to Badala Park and enjoyed the entertainment, including lovely fireworks. It was a wonderful day that I will never forget. So much nicer than english new year year when everyone is drunk in the pubs! I hope to spend many more new years in Gambia! |
