Sulu, i've been following developments between yourself and Dalton1 BUT you seem to be the true journalist here. DALTON1 is so full of anger and arrogance and ofcourse a self portrait intellectual.
I am only being honest here and hold no grudges to anyone. Most of these socalled online papers don't even edit their articles properly and you cannot therefore help but clearly notice the poor grammar, spelling and sentence construction.
Mansasulu, the majority of people who imitate philosophers confuse the true with the false, and they do nothing but deceive and pretend knowledge. If you can find out where to get tickets why not Dalton1 - a journalist able to do just that instead of trying one the blame game.
I am glad the issue is at rest |

Gambia used to be a model pre 1994 but is not anymore.
As far as am concerned where South Africa can stand as a democracy Mali too can stand. Apartheid is worse than a military coup by a far measure. So i can't see how you can sanitize South Africa's brutal Apartheid and not accept a bloodless coup used to end tyranny and usher in a credible democratic dispensation. |

With all the problems with apartheid in South Africa, there was never a military President like in Mali. May be they are a lesser of two evils. Believe what would you choose: lesser of two evils or more of two evils.
Come on my Fulaman 
By the way, i am reading about a Fulani prince from Futa Jalon called Ibrahima who was sold into slavery, won his freedom through U.S President Quincy Adams and went home to Guinea where he died but before leaving nine children in the United States. He comes from a town called Timbo in Guinea Conakry with their capital at Jenne. His father called Sori was a marabout warrior. |

Konds, definitely to you ur belief and to me my belief. Diversity is the spice of democracy in itself .
A fula who left his seeds in USA?! No wonder you have pretty, handsome and intelligent Americans. They are descendants of that PULO(Fula) and other Fulas who reside/d in the US. |

You know a Sarahule woman is much prettier 
I just bought the Book "Prince Among Slaves". Its a moving story and how he kept hoping until he met a slave trader who was once in Guinea and who was left behind by his team mates and wandered until he came to his father's kingdom. He was well treated and when they met in USA, the slave trader worked hard for his freedom through the then secertary of state of the US under Quincy Adams.
One good turn deserves another and his fathers generosity paid for his freedom. |

I observed this pic carefully, and had a chance to share it with many people.
While Jammeh is standing straigth looking like '50 cents', dressed to kill, our sister Mccdol is leaning towards the guy with a smile. Me, too, at that point, i smiled, sharing thoughts in deeper horizons. Who won't any way? This is oga; oga money; oga power;oga jobs; oga tv and radio;oga doctor; oga properties; oga torture; oga jail; oga hellfire. (Please Neneh, get closer. I am with you. Didn't you get the job you wanted. so who will argue to win that you are a fool.?)
Next, the dress of the lady with a T-shirt next to '50 cents' was a little worrying. At this point, i felt it might cause acrimonious relations with their spouses.
Well, after so many revelations and alleged flouting, the pic was unfortunate for both of them.
I was wondering what Jammeh's reaction will be? Or better Neneh herself? Or their spouses?
Personally, a little person like me, can go to a reggae dance, and dance to sweating point. Not that a big crime, but why is the guy so important in this issue. Agreable, that this pic goes way into their personal lives. But how does this pic escaped from that spot? The writeup from our brother Sankareh alleged a lot of things with it.
I agree if one is fighting with an enemy, even islam allows you to use all the force and might at your disposal to defend yourself, including weaking the enemy to graveyard level, since the enemy is out to get you, and once he lays hands on you or grap the upper hand, he will not forgive you.
This pic in my opinion should not be censored. Lets examine it in all angles here.
will rejoin more...and thanks for those debating it constructively.

| Mawdo Dalton1, I can assure you that neither Jammeh , his spouse, Neneh and her husband or families would lose sleep over this picture. Am sure they would have a hearty laugh abt it. If anyone who poses with Jammeh and smiles get a top Job or Ministerial Job, then we would have the largest cabinet in the world. Sankareh abused office wen he was in College. My conscience is not allowing me to share that info here online for fear of hurting those who were Sankareh's victims. |

Thanks Madi for your interventions and mediation to calm down tempers. Its definitely a group picture at Jammeh's farms which they commemorate seasonally. There is nothing scandalous on their personalities period.
Lets progress with other important issues. |
