This is a momentous day that we as a management team and I in particular have been waiting for with bated breath for a greater part of this year. This, for us, is the crowning glory of the hard work we have been doing for the past two years. To have our Minister grace us with his presence and give his official blessing to what we do is glorious honour indeed.
