more reasons for extension delay

"Belgium will recall its ambassador to Senegal after the West African country withdrew the rights of Belgian national carrier Brussels Airlines to operate flights via Dakar to other African destinations."

Seems like our minister for transport has been busy.. Karim must have been working to get Senegal Airlines up and running this month as well as kicking Brussels Airlines out.

Maybe he'll find time this week to get our extension finalised? I'm assuming the exploration agreement has to be rewritten because we applied for a 3 year extension as opposed to the original 2 years. Hence Karim needs to find extra time in an already seemingly packed schedule.
