I didn't know that DK Jawara and Alhagie Janko Tambajang are identical twins. If they are not siblings of the identical twin genre then why in God's world is nderry gracing an obituary of Mr. Tambajang with a photo of Dawda Jawara? Why not ask Demba Baldeh [ the author of the obituary] to supply you with one. Guess that will be too much to ask and plus he had Jawara's photo handy.
This might seem petty to some, but it is an abuse of accuracy in reporting. Readers not familiar with Gambia will think that the photo accompanying the obituary is that of the decease. No other Gambian outlet ran this obituary with the photo of Dawda Jawara. Why is that? Because it will tantamount to misrepresentation.
