I hope the bolded is true but feel there are still areas that needs cleaning.

I also believe such issues should not be easily moved on from because it could reoccur in some other way. Well point noted.

Hope all is well at home?

WOW! Just found this thread and it's a wonderful read.

Nice permutations OP, you sabi Nigeria politics.
