Thank you for commenting. All comments are moderated so it may be a short while before you see your comment on the blog. I will keep back some comments relating to the current Seyi murder trial until it is over, as it is not appropriate to assume guilt or innocence until we have a verdict. I know this is painful to some people who have taken the trouble to comment, but I ask you to be patient.
