GPU-USA Sends More Money to Chief Manneh Family
The GPU-USA has disbursed more funds to help the family of disappeared Gambian journalist, Chief Ebrima Manneh. A couple of weeks ago, GPU-Gambia received a little over 12, 000 from GPU-USA Treasurer Joe Sambou. The monies were channeled through GPU President Ndey Tapha Sosseh.
This morning, Ndey Tapha forwarded the email below from one of her colleagues in Banjul reporting that another installment of 2500 has been handed over to Chief Manneh's father.
The GPU-USA will continue helping Chief Manneh's family as long as funds permit. We continue to solicit contributions to the Chief Manneh Family fund on an ongoing basis. Those wishing to contribute can send their contributions to Joe DSambou in the U.S. or Njok Malik Jeng in the U.K.
The GPU-USA wishes to thank all who have chipped in to help this family. Below is the relevant portion of the email forwarded to GPU-USA by Ndey Tapha Sosseh.
"Yesterday we took the money - D2,500 to the family of Chief manneh in Kombo Lamin. Receiving the money on behalf of the family, Sarjo Manneh the father of chief Manneh once again commended GPU Gambia and the GPU USA for the love and care both unions have demonstrated since the missing of his son three years ago. He also prayed for all."
Thanks all.
