  1. SHROUDED IN SECRECY OR MYSTERY?

    No one should be left in ‘…uncertainty or misery.’

    If it is about ‘…transparency,’ failed to see how this should be left ‘…Shrouded in Secrecy or Mystery.’

    Now there is a principal appointee, ‘…What has happened to the tenure of former principal Hyram K. Ford?’

    Oh! Know what, ‘…The answer is blowing in the wind’ [You Tube: Stevie Wonder: 1966].’

  2. ALMOST FORGOTTEN – TOP OF THE CLASS – WOMAN IS BOSS

    Congratulations to these two wonderful ladies.

    Do believe they will ‘…fit the vision of the ‘ASC.’

    Also believe they have the capacity, and would resolve in acquitting themselves exceedingly well.

    This is contingent upon each complementing each other as they embark upon discharging their tertiary responsibilities as a team.

    Top of the Class. Woman is Boss.

    MR HYRAM K.FORD IS NOW AT THE UNIVERSITY OF THE WEST INDIES FIVE ISLANDS CAMPUS . VERY MUCH SURPRISED THAT YOU WERE NOT AWARE OF THIS MOVE.

    • RM – WHAT CAPACITY?
      Surprised?

      Never professed to know every happening.

      May have missed me completely.

      Knew very much that there were some issues at ‘ASC’ and some hiccups as well [Observer: August 26, 2019].

      Merely being positioned at ‘FIC’ might still be viewed as shrouded.

      Do you wish to inform as to what capacity?

      Hope it is one that befits his intellect and comparable to his ‘…previous prestigious position of Principal.’

    I have a lot of RESPECT for you Sir. I cannot believe with my true conscience that you were not aware of this transfer. This was announce by all the MEDIA in Antigua. To answer your question Sir….I believe Mr. Hyram Forde was promoted but I do not remember His current Position. Hope Someone in this medium would be able to assist Us. Seasons Greetings.

    By the way Mr. Pompey I enjoy reading your SUBMISSIONS.

      Many thanks for reading.

      Committed follower of ‘ANR.’

      More up-to-date that others.

      Only tried to ‘..offer rationalize thoughts’ on the news presented, particularly in ‘…imparting some knowledge or provide an understanding of the criminal law.’

      Do read all of those submitted by others.

      Most have traversed roads that ‘…Rawlston Pompey fear to tread.’
