In a long article in the African Champion edition of Tuesday October 20, he has gone in for Dr. Sama Banya in the same way that\u00c2\u00a0the newspaper’s proprietor used to attack me. It was often sparse facts interlaced with lies and speculation.<\/p>\n
Orlangba\u00c2\u00a0begins with\u00c2\u00a0the oft repeated question\u00c2\u00a0as to whether I am 79 or 89? Does it really matter as long as I still do a one hour brisk exercise at five every morning or that I am often seeing running my errands\u00c2\u00a0ON FOOT in the main business district of the city? Does it not bother him that at his suggested 89, I still look ten years younger than he? But a quick glance at what he has written. Yes, I was 10 years and six months old at Christmas 1940 and just been promoted to standard three in the Bo School.<\/p>\n
I found\u00c2\u00a0late John Kallon\u00c2\u00a0already attending the Methodist Primary school when I entered there for the first time some time in 1937. His late father Pa AJM Kallon, later Chief Kallon was the head teacher. John later met me in Bo School. Late Justice Kutubu was\u00c2\u00a0in Bunumbu as the ward of\u00c2\u00a0late Mr. and Mrs. Frank Anthont of Union College.\u00c2\u00a0He entered Bo School in 1947 when I was already in Form four.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
I left both John Kallon and Sheku Kutubu in Bo School when I came down to the Prince of Wales school. I entered Bristol University at the age of 24, two years after when most\u00c2\u00a0British Medical students would have graduated.\u00c2\u00a0What do the above facts have to do with age? Would\u00c2\u00a0I have been considered to be of the same age as the British students who entered the University with me when they\u00c2\u00a0were barely 17?<\/p>\n
I\u00c2\u00a0shall\u00c2\u00a0respond (I’ll never tire of doing so because I STATE FACTS) to his confused statements of my political activities which are really well known and a far cry from his imaginations would suggest. But for now I would like Orlangba to realize that he is a better minister than a journalist, so\u00c2\u00a0keep to the former.\u00c2\u00a0More anon.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
