Tommy Lee Sparta has received a monetary offer from Dominica in another twist in the long-running matter involving the controversial Jamaican dancehall artiste who was deported, along with his crew, from the island in 2014.
The artiste’s attorney, Bert Samuels, has confirmed the offer to settle the matter to Jamaica-based radio station Irie FM.
“We are happy to say that the Dominican government has written to us and has made a monetary offer for all four persons who were wrongfully turned away,” Samuels told Irie FM.
He said he has met with his client and they are considering the offer.
“Negotiations are continuing,” Samuels stated. “I cannot divulge what the offer is but we continue to negotiate.”
Tommy Lee, whose real name is Leroy Russell, was to perform at a concert in February 2014 in Portsmouth, organized by Cabral Douglas, however, organizations, such as the Dominica Association of Evangelical Churches denounced the artiste’s appearance saying his music glorifies Satan and promotes lawlessness and violence.
On his arrival in Dominica, Tommy Lee, 26, along with his three-member team, Tiasha Oralie Russell, Junior Fraser and Mario Christopher Wallace were denied entry, detained and deported the following day.
The government of Dominica said its action was based in the interest of public safety.
Meanwhile Douglas has demanded US$3-million from the government in compensation in the matter, however the demand was turned down.
He has now taken the matter to the Trinidad-based Caribbean Court of Justice and it is being heard today, Monday, December 12.
Meanwhile…
Dominica’s hospital is a waste of time. What is the gov’t doing to improve the facility and services provided?
Them so called Christians are hypocrites.
Where are the protests against the politicians and their corrupt and disrespectful behavior?
Where is the money coming from? The country’s paying for it when it was the PM that made such a stupid call.
I agree 100 now see how much dem dama55 cost the country which part of tommy lee evil
My people, do you realise that the world is ruled by religion and politics and these two go hand in hand?
HOTEP (PEACE)
Matthew 5:8 – Blessed are the clean (pure) of heart for they will see God.
Hebrews 12:14 . . . For that holiness, without which no one sees the Lord.
John 15:4-5 – Remain in me as I remain in you. Just as a branch cannot bear fruit on its own unless it remains on the vine. So neither can you unless you remain in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me will bear much fruit because without me you can do nothing. . .
Some of you will say you are a good person. When trouble befall you, be it in the form of sickness you will say, “Why me?” Why not you? Note your words..
Beware of your ungodly words for one day you will pay for it. Freedom of speech could come with a dear price. There is a price to pay for it..
Make those hypocrite christians pay ;bunch of idiots.
no its the Dominican peoples money from the government of dominica, because of those idiot ministers that don’t and cant think… they violated the mans human rights and so must pay… skerrit gets advise from assholsatphan for all petty things yet he could not get for that particular case.
Those that were asking to sue the Government, I hope their prayers are answered. Maybe they thought they were going to hurt SKERRIT but they didn’t realize is the country they hurting. That money which is going to be paid to this guy could have been put to better use in the country. Now on whose back is that bill? Skerrit, me or you? Some of you too damn wicked..
Tommy Lee Sparta to gain big money from government of Dominica, Thank You Evangelical Idiots in Dominica. Tommy Lee will buy his brand new BMW while u stay in poor, flooded, crime rising Dominica sucking salt.
http://jamaicaworldstar.com/tommy-lee-sparta-to-gain-big-money-from-government-of-dominica/
I am a church goer and I believe in God, but some of these “christians” too hypocrite. I HOPE they will raise funds to help the gov’t pay for this damage.
At least you are honest. there are many church goers around the world but not many Christians. In fact Christianity is a relationship with the trinity. We must accept Jesus Christ and live in his ways, then keep rebuking the devil and his demons daily. We are all sinners but by grace we live! if it were for our lives we would have been trash in the kingdom of god but because he loves mankind and has prepared a place for those who accept then we have a chance. The Cross.
He went down to hell and took the keys from Satan. Satan is confined to so much. There are even demons bound in hell. Imagine if they could do everything they wanted to do. The earth would have been destroyed in two days. Think people! Think! Let’s start treating each other the way that we would like to be treated.
May his name be glorified!
Church goers do not make such comments. You must be one who goes to church for the sake of going; nothing godly behind it. You should be supporting them. You are the hypocrite.
Matthew 12:33 – A Tree and Its Fruit – Either declare the tree good and the fruit is good or declare the tree rotten and its fruit rotten, for a tree is known by its fruits. . . For from the fullness of the heart, the mouth speaks.
Matthew 12:35: 37 – A good person brings out good out of a store of goodness but an evil person brings forth evil. I tell you on the day of judgment, people will render an account for every careless word they speak. By your words you will be acquitted. By your words you will be condemned.
This also goes for Tommy Lee Sparta and his D/can supporters.
They just follow the bishop blindly that’s all look where it brought them if they can raise money for cathedral roof then that should be no prob. The prob is people cause issues and turn their back not taking responsibility for problems they cause………….the bishop, the protesters and skerrit
Dominicans are our own worst enemies.
How many artists, public speakers or someone promoting hate and division other countries would detain because they do not believe for whatever reason, what the artist or person is promoting or represents is in the best interest of the people in a country and would not allow them entry to their borders to perform or give their presentation.
If a government cannot protect its citizens from what it believe is not in its citizen best interest without Dominicans telling said people to sue its own government and people, every citizens have to wonder whether we are working for ourselves or against ourselves and that is the question everyone have to ask ourselves.
I mean the promoter knew many Dominicans believe they were protecting their self and children from not having the artist perform yet he could not care less and was determined to have him come on island. The government and people should not be responsible.
Nobody was being forced to attend the event it was being held on private property for those adults who purchased tickets…so the ticket holders rights were infringed, the promoters rights were infringed, and the artist who spent the night in jail rights were infringed…
Guess the evangelical churches will claim “act of God” to avoid legal repercussions and “divine intervention” to escape their moral ones. Is there a christian version of shariah law I wonder? Pity they don’t have the convenient sacrament of confession but perhaps they can come to some concordat with their catholic brethren that will allow them to dip their wicks in a font of holy water instead of more unseemly places.
Have you ever walked the streets in Dominica and here children singing a calypso and they have never been to a show?
Are you telling me, anyone can hold an event on private property with no regard for the law?
Are you telling me you have never remain in your home depending on your home location and have never heard something taking place without seeing it live but hear sounds from the place?
Are you telling me no children could hear the lyrics or anything said or sang even not inside where the performance was to take place?
You mean your secular rights? Wait till the 7 year tribulation and you’ll understand what infringement of rights will be. Folks we don’t have to go that far to understand that there is a spiritual war going on between the spirit of man through their sovereign will and the kingdom of darkness. I am just realizing why so much hardship is going on today. What is man?
We are fragile! A flu knocks us down. pneumonia can kill us! Little viruses destroy us!
What is so wrong about unity? Treating each other right? Showing compassion and mercy? being slow to anger, rage, selfishness…….
what is man?
praise God!
You are joking. They, as D/cans and practicing Christians should not have invited and encouraged that man to come to perform in Dominica. The supporters? Shame on them. God has taken count of all.
Everyone is responsible for his/her own actions. We are guaranteed freedom of speech, freedom of expression and freedom of assembly under our sonstitution. We do not all like or appreciate another mans’ pleasure, attitude or behaviour but as long as it is within the law we must tolerate it in a democratic society. We can not have one group dictating to the rest of the population as to how they should live. What we saw here was religious dictatorship. Our government has legal obligations, not only at home but also internationally, which it has to observe. If this Jamaican artiste was perceived a threat to public order, they could have taken appropriate steps to ban his performance in Dominica before he arrived in our country instead of locking him up on arrival.
Adults can decide if they want to go or not. Parents can send their children if they want them to go or they can choose not to. There is no law against any type of musical performance. The people who were going to be at that show are people who already listen to his music.
This was illegal plain and simple. The government acted out of political interest which is only less despicable than the fact that they lied about it by claiming that he was “a threat to national security”.
Any Dominican with half a brain knows that is complete nonsense. Not even the people arguing that he should have been banned repeat that silly excuse. They talk about demons and evil and what not but anybody who listens to anything other than purely christian music knows that music is entertainment.
Bob Marley had a song where he said “I feel like bombing a church”. Would they have banned him from coming to Dominica to perform too?
We are governed by laws not religion .That was a foolish act and it was done to get the support of the religious vote. As a voter who voted DLP i say it was wrong to step on the mans rights and now we must pay . I hope a collection will be encouraged in all the churches to contribute to paying for this foolishness.
my redepmtion song
I have never seen nationals who hate their country more than Dominicans. All they do is criticize Dominica. No wonder Dominica is as it is. You all are killing it with your own mouths.
your god the doctor is at rault
gade cochoni, just making de country look like pappyshow.
well tommy grinning in de pic, i guess he laughing all the way to de bank now.
GAY PRIDE DOMINICA COMING NEXT YEAR. wE WILL BE PLANNING A MASSIVE EVENT AND NO ONE CAN STOP US.
Ok. and we coming with straight pride and not showing such outlandish behavior like you all. We all have the same rights you know.If your are homosexual good luck to you but don’t come and rub that in everybody’s face.
Indecent behavior in public is not acceptable, straight gay or transgender or whatever other gender they invent next.
Dominica is a country government by laws. In the statute books there are laws against indecency, and laws against buggery, making a gay pride parade illegal. In the case of Tommy Lee, the man was denied entry, arrested and deported for no reason at all. He could not have been arrested for his lyrics because he never performed any offensive lyrics in Dominica, he was arrested upon his arrival. This is a gross human rights violation. The Government needs to pay those people their money and stop making fools out of themselves and the country by extension….
Gays are humans too, we are not harming Dominica, some of all you husbands and boyfriends need to come out of the closet. All you start the trend and we will continue. Thanks and if you all stop us then the world court will rule against DOMINICA. You can stand for him bur not for us. WE WILL SEE.
DOMINICA has LAWS for GAYS too. We will be making our debut in the Carnival with Decency and Pride. Our mass troop ready. All guys and friends from the USA attending. The World will be watching so try and stop us. dOMINICA WILL END UP SELLING THE ISLAND ITSELF.
No one can stop us, eh? Well, remember the Titanic which sank some years ago and the majority of passengers and crew died?
The man who helped build the Titanic said to a Priest in those days, who had preached on LOVE for God and for others. After Holy Mass he went to the Priest and told him he was one of the builders. In that ship it was written: “No one can sink this ship; not even God.” This was the pride. Pride comes before the fall – of Satan and his followers as yourself. Well, you know the fate of the Titanic and what occurred to it.
Try it and defy the government and the other authorities as the Police Force and see what will happen. As you do, keep in mind God’s fire and brimstone. I think God is tired of this type of abomination which is flaunted in His Holy Face.
You take God for granted? Wait and see.
The Truth have to be told that if Dominicans can stand up for Sparta. We are empowered to introduce GAY PRIDE DOMINICA, Caribbean Edition. A Satanist cannot have rights over GAYS or else we sue you guys. We are not violent and Carnival February will be a great time to have it. We have rights from the UN.
Come & get Coolwash
Don’t bring Gaza into allu gay thing….
This evening Marpin news came with the usual crap again saying that they could not confirm an offer had been made when that information came straight from the artiste’s lawyer already. Oh boy, is that same syndrome of the road accident with the cruise ship passengers again. It is obvious that those journalists are under government constraints no to say anything but that is ridiculous when the horse has already left the stable.
I guess dem Public works worker the government throw out for a year now will have to go court to then jus mabe the government will make them an offer
Who, in the Government of Dominica, would want to stoop so low, to be in a witness chair at banter with someone like this young individual?
I can almost hear the Government’s Voice saying: Give him money, if that is what he wants–take it and leave us alone; go away and don’t come back!.
However money, regardless of its amount, cannot buy the Grace that belongs to the Soul, and sanctification that belongs to the mind–those substances are priceless!
It is that torment and torture that this Tommy Lee person is already suffering–wandering with a carnal condition of the mind and a dead soul within; the suffering has not yet started.
He is surely one of those individuals who is not going to “rest-in-peace” on the day he takes his exit from existence in the world–so what good is the money going to do for him?
“Judge not, lest you be judged”. “Do not judge, so that you will not be judged, since you will be judged in the same judgment that you make, and you will be measured by the same standard you apply.”
A typical example of someone who cannot differentiate between judging and telling the truth.
That is why skeritt run away….coward…
When the …. administration mistreated Tommy some said that it was God answering their prayers but it seems like God answering get Tommy Lee Sparta prayers now. I hope God send the check via western union to help tax payers psychological Tommy Lee Sparta.
All those hypocrites that claim Tommy Lee was a servant of the devil are the same ones who glorify the evil that is going on in Dominica. Those who oppress the poor and lie to the powerless. The evil lawyers lying and stealing; ; those who watch blatant dishonesty by politicians and pretend that they are unaware.
Tommy Lee is not the problem at all. The devil is the organized fraud and deception that we allow in Dominica. You want stare the devil just think of that ………
He getting the money has nothing to do with God. You know the type of man he is who is not on the side of God. Therefore, do not bring the Most Holy Name of God in it.
Money can be the root of all evil. The devil is prominent in the world. He also causes people like you to make derogatory and unbecoming statements. You know, the power of the evil tongue..
This money will be like a bag full of holes in it. He will take it to pay his legal bills in Jamaica. He must remember, he who laughs last laughs the loudest. The latter it will not be him.
Do you know what kind of man he is… Allu always quick to condemn.. I hope you are without sin.. It is the words of de one you call christ who said let he without sin cast the first stone.. dont judge a man unless you walk in his shoes… Is all of allu christians da sayin hooray for skerrit and want to condemn…Tommy Lee should sue them for 10 million… Educate yourself before you tlk… This violated fully the treaty of chagaramas…. Do you even know what this is?????? the guy came in to do a job… There was no legal grounds to send the guy back…. N then we expect good treatment from the wider Caribbean
Good morning to you. God is not for mistreating mankind but showing them love, mercy, grace, hope….. If there was mistreating then it was not from Jesus Christ. I want you to know that God lets his rain fall on both the just and the unjust Matthew 5:45.
If God created everything on this earth by the power of his word he has no need for anything here. When Jesus came out of the wilderness from his 40 day and night fasting, Satan tempted him to throw himself down and let the angels catch him. Satan was referring to Psalms 91 verse 12 “they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone” Jesus responded ““It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test”. He is also the judge so we should not judge. He wants to be true witnesses meaning that we speak the truth.
Do you really know the individual whom you are defending?
nonetheless, he can change all that! he is a loving god but also jealous. His arms are open.
Praise his…
Thank You!! Good points.
They should put the responsibility for paying the cost on those hypocrite evangelist and their supporters and on the prime minister too for consenting with them. Because they all deep their heads in the sand and pretend that dominica is so crime free and is that one artist that was going to spoil dominica when they know that is so not true. Tax payers shouldn’t have to pay for that
Obviously you are not a Christian nor a practicing one and are not on the side of God. Woe to you! Sorry for you.
Coming soon to a Theatre near you!!

He can keep his dirty money. This is what the Pope told the Italian Mafia.
Pay heed and watch what you state lest your words, your mouth and fingers condemn you and soon enough..
Money gained unlawfully is not good money. The Church does not want it. Be respectful.
the same churches that said nothing when the gay ship landed in dominica ??
Who de hell is de pope to talk about dirty money na…. De catholic church was built on dirty money…. Research and know your history before you make yourself look like a fool na…. De church was an owner of slaves like you who would follow them and pay to them after robbing u and slaving you for so many years… Maybe you just dont know about the papal doctrine seperating the world drawn up by the pope…. Mayb you dont know what is ecomienda system… Get real tlking about the pope…. Man you ppl are soooo foolish….Never asked yourself y so many spanish and blacks are catholics?
The Govt. handled the matter wrongly, in the first instance they could have warned him that he is not welcome or at the port of entry the Govt. could have prevented him entry. All this is said and done I hope that those one day CHRISTIANS will collect monies to spare the treasury from that expense sparta did not violate any laws in the land. I am not a fan of sparta, sometimes I think to myself and say that these self righteous christians are worse than the Roman Catholics.
We CANNOT and should not BOW to the forces of satan. Watch all the comments of the demons in Dominica supporting craziness is best we have a Dominica Gay Pride festival here too because it seems that if someone want to come and have a fete, the inhabitants will gladly welcome them. LOOK OUT GAY PRIDE DOMINICA COMING SOON.
Pure nonsense you talking. We have a gross public indecency law that would make it illegal to have a gay pride parade here. Either way the majority of the population would be against it.
But in the case of Tommy Lee the only people against him coming was a MINORITY of religious idiots who realise how irrelevant their churches are becoming so they have to try all kinds of publicity stunts to get attention. Then the prime minister panders to them because he wants them to speak good of him on their pulpit considering that the sheep do practically anything their pastors tell them to do
The government must first approve of that abomination. I hope never. If so, this will be another country falling further under the clutches and yoke of Satan.
I am no fan of Tommy Lee Sparta and i don’t listen to his music but what the Prime Minister did was wrong. His action on the brink of the last general election was purely political and i think the Honorable Prime Minister along with the Dominica Labor Party should be fully responsible for the cost to be paid to this artiste. When the UWP have their political issues they raise monies to deal with the expenses and costs therefore there is no reason why the DLP can’t do likewise. This was pure folly on the Honorable PM’s part to win political mileage therefore he should take full responsibility.
this 2 face Christian have we seen any demonstration for our under age boys and girl that is sexually
being terrorised
fire burn you hypocrites
How many people are not two-faced? Are you an exception? I doubt it.
What kind of nonsense is the AG’s office playing. The case is before the CCJ starting December 12 and they are now negotiating with Tommy Lee Sparta’s lawyer!!! Why did they have to wait so long. I hope if they agree on a settlement it will not be kept in secret as the one of Matt and PM Skerrit!!!
Well i foresee after this grand settlement cabral Douglas will invite him again and those hypocrites evangelist will block their ears this time and keep their mouth shut. Like they should do in the first instant. Who are they to be the judge of the young man. Don’t throw stones if you live in glass houses. Karma is a bitch.
Sad. I would not think a D/can would make such a comment. Are you a traitor to God or what?
Only the devil and his influence could make such a statement. It appears you are under his yoke. Karma is the devil and his work.
You would like to see this man sing to your children and not say anything, not even to prevent him from singing to them? You are another one. Your words will condemn you. On that day you will find out who is right and wrong.
You that, The Truth Be Told, is such a Jackass!
If people don’t want their children to see Tommy Lee, they don’t send them to the concert. How hard is that to understand?
Is this the same Skerrit who stutters and stammers about leadership??So he is absolutely ignorant on CSME and the movement of artists?…He and the evangelical church should meet the cost,and not the poor tax payers…HE OBVIOUSLY DID THIS TO TOMMY LEE,for votes from the church members.!!!Wonder when this inept man’s destruction of Dominica will end.
At least the evangelical church is on the side of God. Where do you stand? On the side of the devil? It appears to be. Your comments give you away.
who de hell is you to say the evangelical church is on the side of God… The same evangelical church that praises the pm and applauds his action. get real… Just like a blind follower you too will fall in a ditch.. just like all other hiding behind Christianity. Get Real..
How can Skerrit lead CARICOM if he dies not even understand the CSME
I agree for the artist not to be allowed to perform. I don’t belong to any protestant church but I still agree with them. Our country has to much violence for such a population.
Cindy, the government could have done that before he arrived. They did not handle this at all well. I think his music is offensive and horrible but the man should not have been subjected to that kind of treatment.
He knew he was not totally welcomed. Why did he still come? He is bold and had no shame. Now he wants money? He will find out in time what is in store for him.
Well he wasn’t allowed to perform and how did that affect the level of violence? It seems to me since that time up til now we’ve had pretty much record breaking crime levels. Shootings, robberies, murders etc. None of this is new either. Unfortunately violence (and a very morbid view of violent acts) is a part of our culture. No amount of banning artists will stop that
Well a radio thorn with the many evangelicals who follow the red shirts will be in order. After all theyvfavor the P.M.
A lot of ignorance in the world today. I commend the Evangelical group for standing p against Tommy Lee Sparta and the rest of the ignorant minds in DA. They will never know that the money Sparta is about to be awarded will no bring him any good and Dominica is not in the lost. When you live according to the world, you see only the justice of the world. You will never see what Elohim has planned for DA. I hope all people who left Dominica never come back to DA, bringing their American perspectives back to the island. Dominicans in DA should vote to ban Dominicans returning to the island who did not leave under a Government supported initiative like an Exchange program. People that ran from DA hoping to find better lives else where will try to return home, they wont be able to tolerate America. Th current Administration should lift the returning home allowance at the port for Dominicans returning home who never left under Government Exchange Program. Bunch of Opportunists.
So you’re not concerned about a regime who has completely sold out Dominica to the New World Order but you’re so alarmed at some reggae artist performing there. You are either an extreme hypocrite or naive.
Hahaha you want to ban diaspora from coming back when they’re the only spark of life in this dead country (which you can see every time at independence season) and not to mention the dollars the bring into the economy. And you call people ignorant.
I am sorry to hear such craziness about DA, if you dont like to go to concerts that’s not your preference you don’t have to attend and secondly these concerts are mostly for the younger people. Why put DA in such a bad position where you have to dish out millions of dollars. These Evangelicals who started this protest should come up with the money to pay for the problem they stared if DA have money to give away why they don’t put it to use and make jobs available for the people to work.
“Based in the interest of public safety” LOL what a joke. Religion has no place in government affairs in this modern world. There should be a declaration of separation of religion and state in Dominica. If this was indeed done “based in the interest of public safety.” then that would be a recommendation from one of the religious leaders in Dominica as it was after the protesters came out that the government took action. There is a relation, no coincidence here. There was no discussion between the public and the government about this minor thing which got escalated but more so there was mostly discussion with religious leaders who pushed their way on the government and got what they wanted. This should not be. The government should come to an agreement basked on representatives of the public as a whole. They didn’t do that the first time so now they pay the price for not following what is in our constitution.
You are not smart. Do you know that God is everywhere? You can take him out of your heart and mouth but you cannot prevent him from watching your every move, wherever you are, for your judgment.
You cannot take him out of anywhere. It is His world. We are only on borrowed time.
Know that only fools say there is no God. Those who think Religion and State should separate and not mix lack moral and godly enlightenment.
You would prefer this man to bring in his demonic ways in Dominica. Those who are on the side of God, wherever they go, God is with them. Those on the side of the enemy of God and of our souls, wherever they go, he is right there with them. The latter will not be to their mortal and spiritual benefit. One day it will be to their detriment and eternally so. Choose the path.
You’re so right Truth. Allah is the supreme authority over all. NO state cannot be ruled unless it is ruled by the laws of the almighty God. One day in sha Allah the sharia will take effect in Dominica and we wouldn’t even have to worry about demonic dancehall artists because music in and of itself will be haram as decreed by the prophet (PBUH).
The evangelicals too hypocrite. There are other issues impacting our society that they should unify for….
Are you going to start taking the radio stations to task for what they play on air??
I am looking at the photo of the protesters and my guess is, if you had to collect money from them to pay the claim, you would likely be hard pressed to collect $100,000. But they do have a right to have their voices heard, so I don’t blame them. The person who I blame is the prime minister, who operates as if he is the king and so he rules by decree.
In the meantime, he will forgo repairing feeder roads in order to reach a settlement with Sparta.
I hope he learns his lesson.
God allows certain things to happen to see how far we will go waiting for us to turn back. It is Satan’s role to do whatever he can to destroy us because he cannot destroy the creator but he can seek to destroy his creation! If God needed us he would force us to worship him but because he is God over all, and his love endures for ever, and his word is his bond, he lets us do whatever we chose to do. REV 11:7 ” Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and overpower and kill them.” Satan has a certain period of time among us. His goal is to destroy us.
Rev 11:10 “The inhabitants of the earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth” When this will happen in the future, inhabitants will celebrate as the text said.
Then will They be called up to heaven while the inhabitants stay below to be tormented.
Whether it is a political, or (spiritual from another source) notice the parallel. We are here trying to warn, protect and guard against demonic entities manifesting through music, dance, symbols…. and we are constantly being attacked by negativity!
The pastors and church goers who manipulate and imitate Christianity have much to answer to, however the true preachers of the word of God and Christians will not go unnoticed by Jesus Christ!
Our role is not to create fear in your minds but to share the word of Christ and the love that he has to offer through forgiveness, grace, hope, love, mercy, and compassion.
Please do not be one of those going down the broad way of destruction! For there is a narrow path that will lead you to grace and mercy (eternal life).
May Jesus’s name be glorified.
Remember these guys spend over 100 millions USD renovating the airport…
They never thought of having a detention center or a holding area in the airport
for such situations. They never prepared for any contingencies …
PAY THE MAN HIS MONEY AND INFORM YOUR POLICE OFFICERS THERE IS A THING THEY CALL WRONGFUL DETENTION
A country’s authority has a right to refuse entry to whoever he so willed. He was not arrested when he set foot in Dominica.. He was told to return to his jet. He refused. Only then was he arrested. As Jamaicans say, he is boldface. This is why he should never get a cent. They should give him some Canadian Tire Store money or some fake money. This is what he deserves.
The man is a bad example, not morally nor godly. He is a bad example to especially the youths.
I can tell you he would not be welcomed in the US or Canada. If he tried entering he would be detained and deported. Those in the UK will have to say if someone as he would be welcomed in Great Britain.
Well considering your retarded country has a law that makes it potentially illegal to say anything bad about trans and gay people I wouldn’t be surprised. Your amazing Canada also has laws that promote bestiality. But yeah is Tommy Lee that is the bad influence. lmao
At a time when there isn’t much economic development going on in the country,tax payers have to fork out money which could be going to repair some of the terrible road and bridge conditions around the country.Heaven help us with this reckless and administration of our country’s economy.I guess that is what you get when a man with an Honorary doctorate thinks he has a real doctorate degree and he is do arrogant thinking that Dominica is his private estate
Cabral deserve the U$3 mm after all the hard work Rosie Douglas put in labour party with the way skerrit kicking the men and F%&%& those douglas girls like objects. It is about time a Douglas take a stand. Long Live Rosie.
I hope the evangelical churches come together and a big donation to the government to assist them. I am waiting to see, them hypocrites.
I hope that GOD (Government of Dominica) never listens to the evangelical churches again.
Cyril why would the government listen to people who are in their pockets. The same “GOD” and their mercenaries tried to burn You Follow in his house and you and those same evangelicalsize said nothing.
If you are a genuine Christian, look at it on a godly and moral side. It was done for especially the youths.
The evangelists must stand up. It is primarily for God and then the youths. God will not punish them for their stand against this immoral and satanic man but God will punish you people for opposing them for standing up.
They should have let him come in with all his demons to spew in Dominica. Little do you know, some of you, if not most of you would immensely suffer.
I’m sorry but Dominica, the land of my birth is really behind the times…and that is truly scary..
When you die you will find out who is behind the times.
How much? That’s all I want to know ??
Skerrit and his evangelicals including the pack leader now in cemetery should be made to pay for this, not Dominican tax payers. I knew this was going to happen. You can tell Dominicans go to hell none of their damn business but see how a little reggae artist from back-a-yard have you on your knees embarassing the country.. tell Tommy Lee no law no constistution can make you pay him nah, even if he comes with all the lawyers he want.. tell him that, show him who is boss and major. Meantime right before news break you mateh for NY and leave your christmas message on FB for those labour parkar twavaiye followers.
HA! You guys can thank your sway-with-the-wind leader for that one. Those who asked him to handle the situation should now pay for the lack of common sense that’s all too common these days in the country.
If the government i.e. Roosevelt Skerrit banned this artiste at the behest of the evangelical churches I think it is only fair that these churches should pay for any damages and not the Dominican taxpayers as a whole. Whether or not I approve of or like Tommy Lee is immaterial.
Exactly. But see the government take it on themselves to comply with the wishes of a few idiots because they needed their endorsement from the pulpit. Now they have to pay it on themselves because apart from the leaders of those so called evangelical associations it’s hard to hold anybody but the government accountable for what happened. The saddest part is that the money is most likely going to come out of the public purse since they supposedly acted on behalf of the country.
Dante, you are right my boy but it are those preachers who are always going on about morality. Well, let them show their true colour and accept the moral responsibility for this expense to all of us. Let’s see what they have got to say about that! They want to collect money from their followers without paying tax but want all taxpayers to cover the government bill without accepting responsibility. Bunch of sanctimonious hypocrites.
The government banned the artist not in response of the cries of the evangeliticals but rather to win the support/votes of evangeliticals….remember all this nonsense took part in election year 2014..so, it was the government who benefited from that nonsense….so they should pay……once again this shows how the government continues to put winning an election before country over and over again.
Well done Skerrit,
This entire situation comes down to one thing: A LACK OF LEADERSHIP!!!
I guess the preachers will be contributing.
Why should they…..the government’s action was to win votes, don’t forget that
We have no money, we barely have money to pay public servants and public works. What happened with Sparta could have been handled better, not sure why he was put in jail ( he isnt a criminal) but if he was turned away from at the air port then so be it. Intentional artist are banned all the time, Chris Brown is banned in Australia, so if Lee sparta is banned…why you (Douglas) trying to take our 3 million to pay students tuition to pay a man with millions already?
It’s simple; we need to stop acting on emotions. That matter could have been handled much better.
Chris Brown was denied an entry visa on the basis that he is a convicted felon. So he never travelled to Australia.
In this case, Dominica knew they were going to detain and deport Tommy Lee but allowed him to travel anyway and never notified the promoters, which is not only negligent, but a treaty violation.
In addition, unlike Americans travelling to Australia (ie Chris Brown) CARICOM nationals do not require entry visas to land in member states!!!
Except that this was entirely political and they tried to pass it off with the stupid excuse that he posed a danger to national security. We’re selling passports to people from countries that are allied with terrorists but a dancehall artist is a security threat. smdh
That is the question. It is as if he hates his country.
Cabral is a foolish person. He is actually crying down his country with the other critics. One day Cabral will pay for it.
I hope the evangelicals will set up a fund to compensate the people of Dominica for a very foolish move by the prime mister.
Each of them should contribute 10% of their earnings for December to foot the bill.
They are will never do that because all they do is talk.
Don’t worry evangelicals will recompensate the government with their votes again next election …….payment defferred until 2019……Approved… DLP Administration
Use the word in its proper form. It is compensate. If you want to use another word, it is reimburse.
You all need to pay Cabral Douglas.
Shame on him. Pay him with stones.
see those hypocrites. they supporting worst things than vulgar music and they dont seem to find them wrong
You should know. You are the devil.
