Nderry trying to get Lamin Dibba Jailed...

Yeah I know my headline is inflammatory, but what else do you get out of this nonsense that nderry wrote on his paper:

What is evident though, is that the Gambian government has long been trailing our Western Division Correspondent Wise Man. Mr.Dibba is not a staffer of this paper and it's wrong for anyone to victimize him. Wise Man's stories are factual and is driving the state house crazy. You have sacked the wrong person. Dibba's sacking followed a lead story authored by Wise Man in which he exposed an APRC Chairman who was detained on domestic violence charges.

No where in the story is it mentioned that Dibba was fired for suspicion of working for nderry's rag. Why in God's name is nderry rumbling with denials of Dibba working with him.He was allegedly fired for writting about Jammeh's phantom HIV cure. But it is always about nderry. He is such a simpleton that craves for attention from all corners.

He couldn't even get simple facts in the story story straight. Take a look at this sentence in his story that is factually inaccurate:

He was reinstated, following an intervention made by Gambia's Agriculture Minister Yankuba Touray.

Yankuba Touray serves as the fisheries minister. Kanja Sanneh is the minister of Agriculture. The editor of "the leading Gambian online newspaper" (laugh) should know that. When was the last time Yankuba served at agriculture? In any case he was not the agric minister during Yahya's HIV cure spectacle.

My hunch is that nderry stole this story from his erstwhile colleague Yankuba Jambang. Mr. Jambang was associate editor at freedom until he had a falling out with nderry sometime last month. He started his own paper and this story was first reported there yesterday. Here is the link to the story.

Instead of linking to Jambang and giving him credit for the scoop, he coop the story and embellish it to make it look like Dibba was fired not only for his HIV story but for alleged links to his rag of a paper. Nderry knew how toxic his rag is with the authorities back home. Linking Dibba to it will get him jailed. Nderry's irresponsibilty has already screwed up the livelihood of a lot of innocent Gambians. Omar Bah (his associate editor) is a prime example. And that explains the inflammatory tone of my headline.
