ReplyDeleteChronox Manek, The Messenger, knows far too much bout all the stinky, absolutely corrupt 'wheeling and dealing' of the Sepik Mafia operating out the Haus Tambaran, Waigani, as its epic centre.
Thugs (gun men) are hired to do their dirty laundry for em!
It stinks to the core!
God help PNG, where are we headed for?
It's sad but true: We stand, as a nation, to loose good men like Chronox Manek, thanks to the raging Sukumondi - Sepik river god & its entourage!
