Alieu Khan, Stockholm

I want to ask Gambian journalists in the US and other parts of the world, where is the press freedom we are talking about?

Refocusing Samsideen Sarr

By Suntou Touray

Editor Pa Nderry Mbye allow me space in your respected and widely read freedom News paper. I want you to publish my rejoinder to Samsideen Sarr. The response should have been published on the pages of the online Gambia echo Newspaper but unfortunately the able and renown editor of the online paper couldn't find the time and space to publish my rebuttals to Samsideen Sarr's wild and gullible response to my piece. Samsideen, I believe was expecting a response from me and many of my friends and acquaintance were also expecting some form of response after Samsideen mistakenly refer to me as Dr Manneh and he also deliberately misquote my response to his piece. It is my firm believe that you Editor Pa Nderry will let Gambians read my response to the Retired Colonel who openly accused Dr Manneh and others. The truth shouldn't be suppressed for friendship sake.'' If an offense came out of the truth, better it is that the offense come than that the truth be concealed''. St. Jerome. Samsideen poke fun at the Mandingo speaking soldiers by declaring that they the ''Mandingo boys were the majority in the July 22 coup but Yahya stole it from them''. I don't know what Samsideen mean by that statement. If he was trying to instigate a tribal uprising in the army, then he is the wrong person to be the instigator.
