Lung'afa: Greetings again Family.

From this group we expect 100% attendance, or show of positive will towards 30th. That it will be we already have 20 members assurance.

From Saniaga Family, depending on our individual outreach, we could get more.

As much as we would like all to attend, we also have to consider that it is an AGM and members are allowed only. However, due to 2018 plans we would request all who can walk the talk to come.

My humble request is this - confirm your attendance and use your links to get a saniaga whom you know to attend.

- Have a superb day.
