I have not yet had a reply from Mr Owusu though I have had one from the security companyy. I referred them straight back to Mr Owusu as I do want him to handle the entire transaction for me. It is the fastest and safest way in our opinion as well as yours to do things this way.
Our church members prayed for your safe passage through your trials, all will be well
Bless you my dear Mercy
Pastor Robert Ised
