PM Can’t Knock The Hustle
posted (October 13, 2016)

Just a few minutes ago, we detailed the story of how the former Deputy Prime Minister’s son was compensated 400 thousand for land, which had been purchased form the government for $2,500 dollars.  And it’s private land which the government knew it shouldn’t have sold.

This evening, we asked the Prime Minister about it, and here’s what he had to say:

Daniel Ortiz
"The former deputy prime minister, former minister of lands Gaspar Vega, there is a scandal…"

Rt. Hon. Dean Barrow - Prime Minister
"No, no, no you see and then yo the use emotive and judgmental language. No man we're here to talk about what happened with the BNTU and the meeting today. Any questions you have about that please you can no doubt get in touch with the deputy prime minister. That's not something that I'm prepared to discuss, it's not something I've yet gotten a report from the current minister of lands. So please I can't deal with that."
