Dear PC,

Just to close off this matter, I followed up with appointing Raymond
Mamattah and Peter Akinremi Taiwo for 2 out of the 3 slots of the SSC.
According to Razoana's application - Tomslin and myself agreed that she did
not meet the set out criteria. Should we expand the call in order to check
if we get an additional name ?

Best,
bruna
