Comment: Well,that said he went through hell,even though is the side of your story, mr. judge, lol.
"Was Alieu Conteh not working with the APRC at the end?What made him to relocate to DRC and South Africa?Was it not the corrupt practices of the APRC you trying to defend?."
Comment: Well,he is your relative but, i knew him too. Aliue Badara Mohammed Conteh,He brought (Gambia Airways) manage by Late Salifu Jallow, who later owned the Airline (Olympic Travel) was born in Gunjur, i personally bought some trucks and a mini bus(gray in colour)I met his family Ya Coumbeh Badjan,Saihou,P a and Tigan,Sohna Kunda.
Brother, Lalo, You right corruption is still a problem we need to tackle, it is an old problem that is very difficult to dealt with.
Comment:
Brother, this is the worst part of us:
If corruption was an old problem, Means Arafang Yahya have to renew it for us to stagnantly living with it like those natural swimming pools within Batres in Serekunda during the rainy season ?
In the Service of the Truth I Remain
Both Alieu Conteh and Uncle Sainey Jaiteh are distant relatives from my mothers side.For you to say that they were being denied by the PPP regime is false.I'm not PPP but you got to get your facts right.Uncle Sainey's last company he brought was called Thomas Concrete and he wanted to dupe them as many of our country men do "TOUBABS" and he failed.He wanted the government to step in to handover the company to him which they refused and he made the PPP government his worst enemy.Was Alieu Conteh not working with the APRC at the end?What made him to relocate to DRC and South Africa?Was it not the corrupt practices of the APRC you trying to defend? Think Brother,think before you talk.
About Gambia bird..U did not have clue nor about how things come about in Gambia....so please don't try to be smart ass with me! keeping attributing all even you birth to ragtag criminal armed robber in statehouse. BASSSE DINA NYOW to have a clue how these things came about. May God protect Gambia Bird from him until his erection from filthy piracy den..ammen
What pres. Jammeh is doing isn't putting them at risk but, giving them hope to recover from depression. Why, because a depressed person has many similer symptoms as the AIDS patience, such as fatigue,tightne ss in head,loss of appetite,loss of weight,chronic pain,insomnia,i ndigestion and constipation. All these are health threat when a person pessimistic and hopeless.
Bax,I really dont know, but i belief the patience. Remember,don't have sex with anyone who indulges in high-risk behavior,like a drug user or someone you suspect has had a lot of sex partners.
Bax,(Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) AIDS, was a homosexual disease.now"increasing among heterosexuals,e specially teenagers.
"PRESIDENT JAMMEH IS DOING HIS BEST"
Question for you...Do you know or understand how Yaya Jammeh cures HIV/AIDS..? Could you share that with us please...?
Bax, Comment#1 has is just great from my prospective.
Uncle Malick, Longtime, how is everything out there, i hope have change your radical behaviors! anyway, I praised only those worthy to be praise. Malleh is a patriot,but remember during PPP regime Hon. Sainey Jaiteh and Alieu Conteh, when through HELL, and they both failed due to such"CORROPT PRACTICES" and even now, the're many investors who turn their back after they been asked to gave something before they can invest. So, if this one happends to go through i would call it a "BREAKTHROUGH"
Quoting brother Scarlett, "You Radiokangkang should be very careful as applaud anything the Sheikh does"
Comment, I will always speak my mine on issues that are known to me, i wouldn't wanna comment on something i do not know or understand. am sorry
On a final note, Malleh should watch his back because he is dealing with a greedy dictator who will one day wake up and say The Gambia Bird owes the government some money.Just watch and see. Otherwise I wish him good luck in his new venture.
YOU ARE REALLY OUT OF TOUCH WITH GAMBIA AND WILL EVEN PRAISE YAHYA JAMMEH FOR YOUR BIRTH. MALLAH SALLAH CONSTANT Presence IN THE HOTEL AREAS AWAY FROM SCHOOL TO FORTUNATELY MEET WEALTHY TOURISTS STARTED...WHEN YAHYA JAMMEH did not know LEFT OR RIGHT foot IN DEPOT. YOU SHOULD PRAY Likable lad MALLEH GIVEN 10% INLINE WITH Investment “PRECEDURES” PULL IT OFF WITH THE BAD IMAGE THIS SAVAGE HAS DONE AND CONTINUE TO DO IN OUR TOURISM IMAGE. REMEMBER ONE OF THE REASON WHY Germania Express Fluggesellschaf t mbH, the majority shareholder (90%) of Gambia Bird Airlines Ltd...ATTRACTION IS TAPPED IN THE TOURISM TRAVELERS, they are briefed with. In Jammeh end phase, PRAY FOR MALLEH AND Germania Express Fluggesellschaf t mbH uncertainty in declined tourists and visitors to Gambia and not be drag in dirty politics and free assets annexation making them broke and leave and Malleh in Mile 2. UR IGNORANT TYPICAL WOYANKAT.
