I hope the Management of First Media Network Limited, publishers of First News newspaper, will be magnanimous enough to fully settle the one year outstanding salaries I am being owed, in no time.

I thank the company’s management for giving me the opportunity to contribute my quota to its operations in the past four years.

Yours sincerely
