I frequent the Gambian online papers and appreciate the work they are doing. However, I'm quite surprised with the fact that the Freedomnewspaper does not take the time to proofread its articles and use words in proper contexts. Here are few that I've observed:

Saying Death instead of dead:
Editorial: Gambia A Nation In Crisis- General Tamba And Co Death Or Alive?

Saying crab instead of crap.
Saying labtop instead of laptop.
The list goes on and on.
Yes I know some will say I'm being particular but I believe with the audience that this paper attracts, it would be to their benefit to correct these little mistakes. Am not bashing this paper, as I do follow it religiously, but it's time to raise the bar. These misuses of words just make the paper appear unprofessional.

Just my 2 butut’s.

Justice must be served as impunity brings more repression and corruption!

God help you and your new found 'religion.' Welcome to the paradise of the insufferable nincompoop.

Lol I follow it religiously more so for the entertainment factor than for credible news.
