    Skerrit will never voluntarily go before a court to testify against any of his colleagues or his handpicked public officials for malfeasance in public office. When he loses the upcoming general elections, he will be dragged before a judge kicking and screaming. He must be forced to give an account of all the corrupt practices under his stewardship. No public officer can honestly become so filthy rich from the salary of a civil servant . Every new initiative in Dominica is done only by the assistance of foreign entities. The government is forever financially embarrassed, bankrupt. A combination of corruption and incompetence causes that. It has been eighteen straight years of HARD LABOUR under the Dominica Labour Party led by a shady, untrustworthy, ultra selfish imbecile. Dominica can do much better than bottom place in every sphere of development. Dominica cannot have the same leadership and party at the helm of government and expect its fortune to change for the better.

    The ability to read and comprehend is a most stupendous feat of learning. Dr Mitchel has agreed to to be vetted by MNIB – a board that comes under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Finance. Dr Mitchel is the Minister of Finance. So he will investigate himself.

    Skerrit next, with his government also in the box answering questions of the abuse of our State`s funds. We have paid our taxes, we deserve better and not Bobol and corruption. This is a fundamental right.

    Unfortunately our IPO was dismantled and then emasculated..
    Keith Mitchel will not be the last head of government to stand before the court to give evidence,because we have in the Caribbean today a new genre of politicians who are saying “my pocket first”,and if anything is left then the country next.
    I say once found guilty JAIL corrupt politicians and their accomplices too,and return their wealth to our treasury!!!
