No sooner had he been redeployed as Gambian ambassador to Washington, DC than Tamsir Jallow was recalled, (in fact barely a week after he delivered his letters of credence) and today, we report with unassailable evidence that the educator turned diplomat returns to Gambia this coming weekend. A highly placed source in the Gambian Foreign Ministry says, “koto (Wollof for elder) has been asked to come home and definitely he has now decided to return come what may.” Asked what awaits him in The Gambia, our source hinted that he may be send to Brikama as Governor or in Parliament where he once served as a nominated member eloquently defending the tyrant’s draconian policies.

 

In a related development, our source also revealed that Gambian first lady Zainab Jammeh arrived in Washington DC yesterday for medical check up and for her baby Mohammed Yahya Jammeh’s six month pediatrics check up. It can be recalled that the President’s son was born in the nation’s capital six months ago despite the Gambian leader’s continuous outburst against the United States. What is even more laughable is the man’s claims to cure global pandemics while still sending his wife to deliver in the US twice.

Dr Fox says...

   

Extreme justice is an extreme injury: for we ought not to approve of those terrible laws that make the smallest offences capital, nor of that opinion of the Stoics that makes all crimes equal; as if there were no difference to be made between the killing (of) a man and the taking (of) his purse, between which, if we examine things impartially, there is no likeness nor proportion .~ Sir Thomas More in Utopia, Bk 1. (1516)
