    What would you say about those who sold diplomatic passports to Susan Olde, Madueke and others? Where is this money? Did it reach our consolidated funds?
    What would you say about those who promised to account for missing passport money, but cannot do so? What about those involved in the kidnapping and torture of Mehul Choksi? And those involved in the lilac painted apartments in Portsmouth? And many more.
    You seem to be a fool who like to put you dirty feet in your mouth!!!! Imagine the trouble that Dominica is in when a political party has a corrupted scallywag like as its face!!!

    Hello and good afternoon my people. Well Mr Fahie you are being tried in a raciest jurisdiction if Florida which is under the control of Desantis therefore I don’t expect you to get a fair trial. Sorry to tell you that all three of you will be convicted and sent to a maximum federal prison in Kentucky or Tennessee that’s why they brought you to Florida to conduct alleged business which gave America jurisdiction over you all.

    Hot debate. What do you think? Thumb up 1 Thumb down 10

    No mercy should be granted to people like you who have betrayed the trust of an entire nation. People in your position have every material thing to your comfort but yet you want more, while many in your country can’t buy rice, pay their rent, mortgage and utilities.

    Many rulers, in this region, are corrupt and criminally minded just like you. The only reason they are not behind bars is due to the corrupt justice system in their jurisdictions. They will eventually suffer the same fate as you, for even the longest rope has an end.

    Roosevelt, Gaston, and outmoded Comrade Ralph, your time is drawing nigh.

      So what do you say about that former leader whose signature remains on correspondence promising foreigners diplomatic passports in exchange for a financial contribution to his political campaign, which was to be registered as funds for “humanitarian purposes?” And, lest you forget, remember that former PM whose signature is on documentation attempting to huff/voleh/apporpriate State lands?

      I am not surprised that your list has passed DNO’s censorship, but i am astonished that the names of those former leaders are not in your list, Ibo.

        You have not seen that document and can never produce it because it does not exist.

        What should be investigated is that pompous dimwit (Roosevelt) who is now supposedly a billionaire from the salary of a modestly paid civil servant while the vast majority of his countrymen barely surviving.
