Congratulations to His Lordship, Rt. Rev. Mtumbuka, to the Donors, and to the people of Nthalire for such a Dream -Come -True -Achievement. Many thanks also to those who took an initiative and so a responsibility to inform us. However, allow me to choose to believe, sponging out from the article, that the Parish Priest was at least present but not available .
