DLP candidate for Marigot disrupts Linton meeting

Gregory “Karessah” Riviere is expected to make history for the Dominica Labour Party (DLP) by winning the Marigot Constituency at the next general election. That’s what DLP General Secretary, Edward Registe said at a news conference on Friday.

However, it appears that Riviere couldn’t wait until polling day to accomplish that feat. He did what no other general election candidate has done in Dominica’s recent political history, when he personally disrupted a meeting of his opponent, United Workers Party leader, Lennox Linton, in Marigot on Friday night.

Riviere interrupted the UWP meeting when he approached Linton, during his address, demanding to speak.

Linton was at the time, speaking about allegations that the DLP was paying money to candidates to “step up” and “step down”.

“I hear that it has reached somewhere in the region of $15 million dollars that they are paying candidates in the Labour Party to step up and step down. Whose money is that? Your money,” Linton stated. “The candidates who are stepping up around the country, they are not telling people in these communities how much they getting but you are supposed to vote for them, for getting money – millions of dollars – from the Labour Party, to run.”

Linton went on to say, “…Anybody running for the Labour Party ticket in Marigot must tell the people of Marigot how much you get because if $15 million dollars sharing among candidates, I am sure to God; I am sure to God; that reverend, people…”

It was at that point that Riviere walked up to Linton and interrupted his presentation demanding, “Let me tell the people of Marigot, how much I get.” He was subsequently ushered out of the area.

Riviere’s launch as the DLP candidate has been announced for Sunday August 18, 2019 at the Marigot Fisheries where he will have the opportunity to provide the answer which he sought to give at the UWP public meeting on Friday.

Below is a video recording of aspects of the incident.

    Come to think of it I am supprise Lennox Linton, didn’t suggest 50 billion US dollars was missing now that would have given his lazy followers lots more to chew on. Or is it because he did not know how to spell and worked out 50 billion 🤔🤣🤣🤣

    Karresah was about to tell the people of Marigot he only got ten thousand while other fellars getting two and three million. De PM know you can never win so why spend money on you? SOT!

    He said he wanted to tell the people of Marigot how much he got. That means he got money. It is as simple as that.

    Not even the Biggest Fool should condone this act of extreme stupidity. Where else in the Caribbean or even the world an incident of this nature has ever happened? Critical voices are silent on this most extreme action of a most unworthy and unfit candidate. Was he high on a cocktail of illegal substances? Did the truth touch a raw nerve? Mr. Linton seems to hit the target every time he speaks truth to power.

      Then why didn’t Lennox Linton allow him to answer the question he(Lennox) asked?
      If lennox was so confident about the question asked he should had allow the man to defend himself.

      Well this is the problem in Dominica.uwp people thinknrhey can say what they want accuse anybody of wrong doing with evidence.mr linton was accusing the man of getting mines to run so doesn’t he have a right to defend himself ? Linton has a tract record of telling lies and fencing people just take a look at his king record of being sued and there is still more to come.but he feel the heat because the Marigot seat is definitely under threat. He called karesssah just a calypsonian can u imagine.this man a high school drop out say a man with two master degree is just another calysonian.only in Dominica with uwp.wasnt he the one blasting the hon Pierre Charles for not having a degree but atleast he had cxcs linton has nothing

    I’m not in the least surprised. The DLP is comprised of Agents of Satan. They break all rules of decency and morality. This drinking stupor would disqualify a candidate from taking any further part in an election. Only a severely corrupt and immoral political party will tolerate such obnoxious and intolerable behavior. DLP – DEPLORABLE

    A hooligan cannot behave or express themselves any different than in an cannibalistic, animistic;  way!

    He did exactly what was expected of him; as Roosevelt told such people, when they encounter the members of the UWP or their supporters: ” in Church in a grocery store, in the streets, in the hospital, on a buss, on an aircraft, traveling into and out of Dominica, in another country; they must harass them.

    “So, what better place could he have chosen to do exactly as his puppet master Roosevelt Skerrit directed him to do?

    Disruption, interruption obstruction are one of the same; hence if the law of the land works for everyone; if all were equal, and treated equally under the laws of the land, that cheap corrupted political clown would not only be escorted away; the police should have arrested him and charge him with obstruction.

    Roosevelt has saw to it that police arrest created fictitious charges against the UWP members; all of which remains dormant in the courts!

    Skerrit knows how influencial Lennox is. How the people love and trust Lennox. Everytime I look at a picture of Lennox, I feel confident that Dominica will see better days. Lennox is going to be PM. That’s why Skerrit is trying so hard to discredit him, even going as low as using Lennox’s friend against him.
    Tell him the blue tidal wave cannot be stopped, nothing can stop it now, it’s already started and on the way. We voting UWP. We voting the saw!

    The more I read about Karessa the more I am concerned about the safety of Dominica, under Skerrit. I mean if Karressa, a poto UWP could fool Skerrit to get a large cheque just for pretense can you imagine how those MAFIA’s fooling the man to get what they want! I wouldn’t even be surprised that Karressa told Linton what he was going to do so he could expose the greedy and corrupt PM. Karressa just put on a free show with his green shirt on. It’s nothing more and nothing less.

    If the homes at the government project in Bellevue Chopin cost $350,000 for one, multiply that by 300, that’s $105,000,000 ( one hundred and five million). 1 billion is a thousand millions. The other projects are not even close to the size of Bellevue. So where’s the rest of the money? Oh ti largent ah?

    • Francisco Etienne-Dods Telemaque

      How many hundred thousands are in 1 billion?

      Try this:

      I think there are one hundred thousand  (100 x 1,000) in a hundred thousand; Therefore there  are 10,000 hundred thousands in 1 billion.

      (Ten hundred thousand in one billion) eh, I hope!

      Now I might have erred so see if I am correct, see if I have an added or left out zeros!

    August 18, 2019

    Boy, the Greg Riviere I know will enter into plea deal with the UWP government and he will tell us where the money gone. Karressa is eager to tell us what he knows but I must say it was wise of Linton not to give the microphone to Karressa because he would tell us what he knows too early and that would spoil the party. But take it from me Karressa is eager to testify against his corrupt boss

  31. Ask Mel
    August 18, 2019

    Wow! A labor candidate dressed in green, came to interrupt his own UWP meeting? A miracle Karressa wasn’t dressed in blue because the man’s heart is painted blue and I have NO doubt that Karressa will be the first UWP vote in Marigot.

    A disgusting state of Affairs. Karessa must be neglected and not fit to run for election let alone be a candidate and worse of all, to be aligned to the current highly corrupted, fake Labour government under this failed leader Odd Minister Skerrit. This is the nature of a likely drunk and disorderly person.
    “Riviere (Calypso Karessa) interrupted the UWP meeting when he approached Linton, during his address, demanding to speak.” This is despicable behaviour of man known in calypso and to be associated with the worse political leader and political party is the wrong company to be linked to.
    To have someone who has been selected to run for politics disrupting the public meeting of the Leader of Opposition and Leader of the well known professional UWP, disrupt that meeting tells us clearly the nature of Kareesa`s decorum and disrespectful to Hon Linton, an experienced competitor publicly within his rights to hold a public meeting. We welcome Hon Lennox Linton and the decent UWP.

    The brother does not look like he is normal, I mean take a close look at him in the picture. This behavior is totally abnormal, and absolutely reprehensible. The man clearly seem to have something wrong with him, he looked hypnotic; however, this can be perceived as symptomatic of the I can do whatever I want- ‘no law can stop me from doing what I want to do’ – Labour mentality he apparently has already inculcate in his rational deductive process. Imagine if mista becomes a minister, he would walk on people with his arrogance.

    Linton asked for him to tell the people of marigot how much he got and he stepped up to tell the people at the same moment. I see nothing wrong in that. Linton should have let him speak. Linton must be careful what he ask for. He didn’t expect karessah to step up. He frighten!

    • August 19, 2019

      Yes he should respond to the question but not on the UWP stage especially seeing he was going to be launched the following day, that’s would have been his stage and he could tell the truth or not but he stepped out at the wrong meeting, Did you see the PM come to the UWP meeting to tell us where is the money No.. I was disappointed of him. Another thing with all the degrees that Gregory Riviere have which is more than what the PM Skerrit have he should be the PM instead of him, and to those who call you doctor Sherrit they are non educated and don’t understand the type of doctor you are so stop making them beleve you have a doctorate degree you don’t have such.. Now tell us where the money is and stop the nonsense, Marigot will not be fooled or be bought and remember once a UWP always a UWP Gregory showed you and your team that on Friday evening…. PM you open a pandoras box what about your wife, all you a doing is playing with peoples mind and you have to stop it.

I can’t believe for the life of me that this gentleman could stoop so low. I call on the leadership of the party to distance itself from this despicable behaviour. I personally felt very embarassed for Karessah snd have concluded that he has no class. I now see him with the same lense that I view my parlrep Tou Jou Sou!

    Greg has caused all to see the soft and gentle side of Lennox Linton. Greg just bury himself with that drunken master behaviour. I have no doubt that Greg will be soundly beaten on polling day!

      You are not a bonafide laborite. You are using this platform to make a statement. For you to think that lennox has the right to use a microphone to make statements that is incorrect and the man cannot defend himself then something is wrong with you. That is not the behavior of a laborite.
      It is time this man stop causing controversy in this country and stick to the issues. He think he can defame people character because it appears that is how he want to get in office. Par lah. Not there. we need to hear what he will do. It is time he is confronted and I believe he should continue to be embarrassed This is not leadership. this is not confidence, this will not win votes and certainly this is not the behavior of a prime minister he has to get it together or else he will continue to look unhinged, out of control, insecure and a trouble maker. Please bring opposition to this land because this cannot be it.

    Interesting story DNO.
    While It was not a wise choice for Gregory, but people are really tired of the leader of the opposition who is so fixated on missing monies without any proof. He does not have the right to accuse Gregory of getting money so Gregory wanted the opportunity to explain himself which is only fair.
    I think I am really tired of this missing monies conspiracy. It is old and tired. So tired of this and I am sure a lot of Dominicans share the same sentiments. That is not the way to win an election. At this point in the game what we want to hear from the leader in waiting is what are you going to do for the country? How are you going to change our lives? How are you going to get money to continue to educate the masses? How will you care for the elderly? Why should we vote for you? Please give us valid reasons and stop this money nonsense and if you are going to make inflammatory statement provide us with the facts. LINTON HAS MET HIS MATCH IN GREGORY.

      I will NEVER, EVER get tired of hearing Mr. Linton ask for our missing money,
      $ 1, 000, 000, 000 (1 billion dollars). Oh ti largent ah! We want it! We want our money 💰! Who have ears 👂 let them hear. Put the money back in the treasury. We will build our houses ourselves.

      I can’t see one single factor that makes Linton a good representative for anywhere. Linton has no track record of solving any problem, not a single one. He has no competence. All he does is create problems for everyone. One can start when he got expelled from school or the crab back incident at the air port when he caused a person to get fired and continue ad infinitum. The man is trouble maker from the word go.
      This incident with Riviere trying to talk at the uwp meeting to defend his integrity is a mild mistake compared to Linton constant misbehavior.
      One mistake and the uwp gang want to condemn him. He politely asked and Linton said no, end of story. If that is all he is guilty of , we have a winning candidate for Marigot. Bye, bye Linton, see you later alligator.

      One can meet their match if the match have the facts and can freely and openly speak of the topic at hand, it’s a shame to hear you say you a fedup about the missing money when and after the PM said if he had put the money he’s using on the housing revarlution the money would be much more than what Linton came up with, so stop the nonsense and face the facts. The PM and his team spend there time about Linton and degree instead of answering Where the money gone”.. also if degree is all it takes to be PM then Skerrit shouldn’t be one, Gregory “Karessah” should be our PM, a lot of people who did great in this world didn’t go to Collage/ University. And what about the PM wife does she have a degree. Right now I do believe Karessah should step down because Marigot people are very disappointed and ashamed of him he’s in the class of Ian Douglas.. PM didn’t want to answer the question and he didn’t .We have a lot of uneducated men and women who didn’t attend Collage /University…

    Riviere didn’t say let me tell you hiw much I get DNO he said let me tell the people if marigot

    ADMIN: Listen to the video again you can hear him say that in the first clip.

      DNO your comment in responding to the writer is misleading. You are insinuating that Karessah wanted to explain how much money he got when anyone who listened to the video and I have at least 10 times to see if I agree with you, but karessah was simply saying it in a sarcastic way and you know that. Please do us a favor and listen to the rest of the video and please explain to us if you think this man was saying that he received money.
      You job is not to mislead the public it is simply to post information and comments without displaying your political affiliation. At this time when Dominica is seeing so much destructive political behavior and there are so many misconceptions, lies and embellishments your paper should be neutral .
      One thing that I would like to for Linton to tell us where did Skerrit get the millions of dollars he gave to representatives is it CBI money? is it added to the 2 billion that is missing? we would like Linton to disclose his sources. This is getting so…

      ADMIN: The fact is he said those words: “Let me tell the people of Marigot, how much I get.” and that is what we reported.

      To take your position and to assign intent to his words would ,in fact, compromise our neutrality.

      If that is all he did, what is the big deal. It was a public meeting, he made a request and it was denied. But he was also sending a message to the stressers in the uwp. He was displaying coping dynamics against their stressful manipulations. Smart move by an intelligent candidate.
      I think Will S Stevens would approve of Greg Riviere as the right candidate to step in his shoes to give Marigot proper representation.

    DNO you are a. Damn big liar. See how you edited the video. Good thing we all saw it before you made ypur news.

    ADMIN: We used two different clips that run in a playlist to get a more complete perspective that is not available on the UWP recording on Facebook.

    Our clips show even more of Riviere and his reaction where the UWP recording alone does not. The second clip was not edited or “doctored” it just shows a different angle.

      DNO, We see how some people do not like the truth.
      But can you show us the clip of Linton interrupting the State College debate during last election campaign.
      I heard Linton tried the same thing in Guyana to get into a heads of government conference. Is that a do so don’t like do scenario?
      So Linton accused the man of accepting a bribe the man was only trying to protect his reputation.
      I wonder if Riviere can sue for libel (Pinard -Bird did it)

      • August 19, 2019

        @ Joseph John: “I heard Linton tried the same thing in Guyana to get into a heads of government conference.”

        I was thinking about that while was reading the article. That incident is a whole lot of conduct, compared to what Karresshah wee!

        I mean, we are talking about a “Heads of Government Conference” all the way out in Guana; that is pure madness compared to that simple action of Karresshah, who was provoked into what he did, eh! After all!

      When the going gets tough DLP will get tougher. Linton must learn that when you attack people the person have a right to defend themselves.
      Sometimes you have to bully a bully to show that you are capable to stand up to them. It is time for us to show Linton and his gang that we are not going to let them push us to the ground and walk all over us. No more cheeks to turn . We have already turned all four.

      • August 19, 2019

        I am just wondering why did Linton not allow Karresshah to speak if he knew for sure that he was telling the people what is true?

        Or is it that he wasn’t sure of what he was saying, so he was afraid of that confirmation from Karresshah

  57. KID ON THE BLOCK
    August 17, 2019

    Dno, the heading of this article is very misleading and untrue. I am sure you heard as everyone else did.
    The DLP candidate did not disrupt Lennox’s meeting as you are saying.
    As usual, Lennox was lying to his audience telling them of some $15,000,000.00 the DLP was disbursing to it’s candidates for the up coming election. He(Lennox) told his supporters to ask the DLP candidate(Riviere), going up in the Margot constituency about that and how much he (Riviere) got out of the $15,000,000.00. package.
    Riviere, who was at the meeting and heard the question went to answer Lennox’s question right on the spot by asking he Lennox to allow him to answer the question he posed to him in front his audience and supporters.
    By no means Riviere went to disrupt Lennox’s meeting.
    Riviere only went to ask Lennox permission to answer the question Lennox Linton asked of him(RIVIERE). So to say Riviere went and disrupt Lennox’s meeting is very misleading and untrue.

    ADMIN: Thank you for your feedback. While we respect your view, it is still true that Riviere’s actions meet the definition of disrupting.

    We were careful to explain that Riviere was attempting to respond to Linton’s question so that people know the full context.

    However, it is highly irregular,we are actually unaware of any other instance, where a rival politician interrupted his opponent’s political meeting in the manner Riviere did.

      It is highly irregular for a politician to act like Riviere did. But Linton behavior has never been regular or professional.
      From being expelled,to May 29, 1979 , from being deported and being sue, from his 14 day demand for the government to quit to the invasion in Guyana….. I have compiled a whole dossier on Hon Linton and Francis bad behavior so if you need more on this misbehavior let me know. I am checking with my lawyer to ensure that I do not get sued because when the campaign starts in earnest all hell will break loose.
      Riviere ‘s action, though irregular sent the right message that Linton must be held accountable for his lying tongue again.

      DNO since you think that Karesssah behavior was highly unusual don’t you think lennox’s behavior is highly unusual also. For a politician to be fixated on money and make blanket statements without any proof. This is highly unusual to me and many of us. Last week it was 2 billion this week is millions. This is crazy, irresponsible and extremely unusual behavior.
      I do not understand this. He tell people to ask the guy how much money he got when the guy come to answer the question then people are mad. He cannot have it his way all the time. There is clearly something wrong with this picture. Why not give the man the mike let him tell people how much money he receive or did not receive. Linton is karessah representative and Karessah had every right to attend a public meeting. Like the 2 million this story will be debunked and next week it will be more missing money.
      This is exhausting let us talk about real issues. I am fedop gush. my goodness we look really foolish in this country.
