About the Author

Alagi Yorro Jallow was the co-proprietor and managing editor of the banned Independent, a newspaper he founded in the West African state of The Gambia. In 1999, he served as a correspondent for the British Broadcasting Corporation. Since his journalism career began in 1987, Jallow has also worked as a correspondent for the International Press Institute and as a consultant to the London based free-expression organization, Article 19. At the Independent, Jallow became known for his editorials exposing the repressive government of President Yayha Jammeh, who took over in 1994. Jallow is twice winner, in 2000 and 2004, of the prestigious Hellman\Hammet award administered by Human Rights Watch for persecuted writers. Jallow became the first Gambian journalist to receive this prestigious award. In 2003, he was a runner-up for the World Association of Newspapers' Golden Pen Award. In 2005, Jallow received the International Press Freedom Award presented by Canadian Journalists for Free Expression ( CJFE) for his uncompromising and fearless efforts to promote press freedom in The Gambia, despite numerous obstacles. In 2007 he was the first Gambian to become a Nieman Fellow at the prestigious Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard University. Jallow also became an Edward S. Mason Fellow at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, a program in public policy and management, and he was awarded a Master of Public Administration by Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. He was a Fellow at the National Endowment for Democracy in Washington, D.C. where he researched and wrote The Gambia Media and Militocracy under Jammeh, 1994-2012. Jallow also served as consultant for the Mo Ibrahim Index of African Governance for two years. Jallow's research interests include West Africa, African media studies, democratic governance, human rights violations, asylum and immigration, and other social justice issues as well as Pan-Africanism.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal

Statutory right to withdraw

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Exceptions to the right of withdrawal

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:

The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
