CORRIDORS OF POWER
A SENIOR PLAYER in the security sector
is allegedly dejected after learning that major
changes they hoped to benefit from may
not be effected soon. The changes were
expected to affect management ahead of
the polls. The fellow, perceived as close to
the powers that be, had reportedly hoped for
a better position in the shake-up. However,
a little bird whispered there were no such
plans, and the team would remain as it is. The
man was supposedly advised to work with
the existing team and help deliver a safer
environment.

THERE IS GROWING doubt over whether
agencies tasked with unclogging city trenches ahead of the anticipated El Niño rains

exercise to take responsibility for the mess
and be held accountable when necessary.
Corridors of Power is told the concern follows
accidents blamed on abandoned mounds.
Word is that lawsuits are being prepared,
amid calls for agencies to install warning signs
or remove the hazards promptly
