Fatou Touray

Minister Yankuba Touray has not been talking. He is quiet like a "Mumu." I know for a fact that, Touray is helping others to expose the leadership. That I know for certain. As a friend of the Minister, I have access to his computer. I also witnessed his private conversations. Touray is just out their to earn a salary. He would be the last person to defend the President these days. He has said so many bad things about the President, the APRC and Fatou Jahumpa Ceesay.

Touray thought that the best thing for him to do is to take a back seat and watch the President. His relationship with the Daily Observer has not been very cordial. Yanks and his boy at the Daily Observer meet every weekend to discuss the President's activities. They have contact person's overseas, where they exposed the President's secrets. I am not making up stories against Yankuba. I felt that I should distance myself from him since he had taken such a bad route. He is dining with people, I considered opponents of the President. It's dishonest on the side of Yankuba and his boy to undermine the President in such a way.

Yanks and myself hangout every weekend. I know his Lebanese friends. I also know the former Tourism boss, who is also part of his scheme to defame the leadership. It's unfair for him to treat the President in such a way.

If the President doubts my assertions, let him recall Yank's phone records-both GAMCEL, GAMTEL lines. Some of his emails have been intercepted by us.

The other day, he said some bad stuff about Fatou Jahumpa Ceesay and Lang Tombong Tamba. He believes that these people are lovers and are bent on undermining his relationship with the President. That, the President was all the time excluding him from his overseas trips. There are many issues bothering Yanks at this minute.

There are times, he Yanks calls the President " Toyi" meaning he is a daft. He even complained about his redeployment. His boy at the Observer, has also been saying bad things about his new boss Dida Halaki. These two folks are wild endangered species. They want to dine with the President at the same time, insult his parents.

I worked at the Department of State For Fisheries. Since the President reads your paper, I thought it necessary to draw his attention to Yanks/his boy at the Observer plots against him. These people are not loyal to establishment. They are just out to line up their pockets. Wasalam.

Having said that, we deem it necessary to publish this mail for two reasons. One Yankuba is a public officer. Two, he shoul be accountable to our tax payers. We deliberately censored the name of the Daily Observer staffer, because he is not a public officer. Thanks...
