Open Letter: 'Gabon Shame on you!'
(November, 14)
‘’I am writing to express
my disappointment and concern regarding the cooperation of the Embassy of Gabon
in Yaounde. In the first place I was
very disappointed to learn about the ignorance of the staff concerning the devastating
malaria situation in their own country, where today annually, 112 children die,
in 1,000. I have followed the process at the Embassy. The staff has shown
little understanding for the health of their own citizens. David Robertson has a strong personal
awareness towards Gabon’s most deadly disease and a deep respect for all people. A dedicated man, who saved millions of lives
of African children!
In the second place, I
complain in this open letter about the rude and disrespectful Gabon Embassy employees.
The woman discriminated against a man, who lost one arm and one leg, by
insisting a health check! The Embassy of
Gabon should hire people that are skilled in public service, well-mannered with
the respect their visitors deserve, regardless, race, religion or severe disability.
I - as the Operational Director Africa of our aid organization - do not except any disrespect
or discrimination, neither do we bow for bribes: Gabon shame on you! ‘’
Drs. Julia E. Samuël,
Operational Director Africa, Drive Against Malaria Foundation, AMSTERDAM, NL.
