News Highlight

What a week!

O'Halloran's ghost haunts PNM
The ghost of former People's National Movement (PNM) Industry Minister John "cockfighting" "Johnny" O'Halloran has come back to haunt the party almost 25 years after he has died.

NAPA tragedy
IT COULD TAKE as much as $80 million to correct flaws in the design of the National Academy for the Performing Arts (NAPA), Port-of-Spain, the interim President of the Artists Coalition of Trinidad and Tobago (ACTT) Rubadiri Victor, estimated yesterday.

Hart's back in town
Jeremie refuses comment on next step: The Attorney General does not prosecute
ATTORNEY GENERAL, John Jeremie said he could not confirm whether or not ex-Urban Development Corporation of Trinidad and Tobago (UDeCOTT) chairman Calder Hart has returned to this country.

How the drama unfolded
Two days after Attorney General John Jeremie, with the knowledge of Prime Minister Patrick Manning, launched an investigation involving UDeCOTT and its former chairman Calder Hart with the appointment of forensic investigator Bob Lindquist, he (Jeremie) declared in Parliament last September: 'I promise the people of Trinidad and Tobago that ... allegations of wrongdoing will be scrupulously investigated. There will be no sacred cows.'

Hearts not trumps
Mr Manning is also the duly elected Prime Minister of the country and he must be required to come clean to Parliament and ultimately to the electorate. He has made a mess of things, and there is a price to pay for that. Nemesis is closing in on Hubris.

Does the PM have something to hide?
As Prime Minister Patrick Manning stepped into the lights on Friday, the cameras rolled, but the action expected of a man whose world appeared to be falling apart never happened.

Hart-aches by the numbers

Ramesh: government destroying soul of nation
The Government is "destroying the soul of the nation" by continuing to condone the wrongdoings of Udecott and its former executive chairman Calder Hart, Tabaquite MP Ramesh Lawrence Maharaj insisted yesterday.

There's no need to panic
Housing Development Corporation (HDC) managing director Jearlean John is promising to put her heart and soul into managing Udecott's affairs transparently.

Dumas: John should not have accepted Udecott job
Former head of the public service Reginald Dumas believes that Jearlean John should not have accepted the post of chairman of the Urban Development Corporation of Trinidad and Tobago (Udecott).

What a week!

Udecott's smoking gun
The Congress of the People, a political party without any representation in Parliament, has succeeded in presenting our country with the "Smoking Gun" in the whole Calder Hart affair.

How Udecott scandal happened

Twisses and turns of political luck
The Government should have been shaking in its shoes on Friday, but instead it was laughing all the way to the tea break. The Opposition was handed the perfect chance to humiliate the Government further after what had been a terrible week for the PNM. But they dropped the ball-again.

Insiders talk of split within PNM ranks
The national community is turning its back on politics, expressing both disillusionment with and mistrust of the current flock of leaders.

'Rowley vindicated, but...'

Verna St Rose Greaves: Ready to serve again
As she tells it now, though, when Opposition Leader Kamla Persad Bissessar called her three Thursdays ago, she immediately knew it was time to move on from the days following 1999, when she quit the public service because of that administration under then prime minister, Basdeo Panday.

Central Bank Governor in the dark
CENTRAL Bank Governor Ewart Williams said he is unaware of the existence of the report done by Canadian forensic investigator, Bob Lindquist about the CL Financial Group and its subsidiary, Clico.

Pena applied for land in Heights of Guanapo
It was Rev Juliana Pena who applied to the Ministry of Agriculture for the land at the Heights of Guanapo on which a church is currently being constructed by Shanghai Construction.

Prophets: holy or hoax?

Karen slams 'attack' in House
Finance Minister Karen Nunez-Tesheira on Friday night lashed out at Opposition MP Dr Tim Gopeesingh, claiming that he, Gopeesingh, said that she, Tesheira, killed her husband for insurance money. Opposition MPs defended Gopeesingh saying he did not make the comment.

WASA calls ban on river water
Several rivers which feed into the Water and Sewerage Authority's Caroni-Arena System are now off limits to the public.

Catholics want $40 million
Already faced with a depleting flock and mounting concerns about a persistent lack of candidates for the priesthood, the local Roman Catholic Church is said to be on the hunt for some $40 million to restore/renovate two of its historical churches in Port-of-Spain, including the majestic Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception.
