Former mayor of Roseau, Cecil Joseph, has been appointed acting general manager of state-owned Dominica Broadcasting Corporation, popularly known as DBS Radio, and wants the public to look beyond his political affiliation and see him as a competent person who wants to move the company forward.
Joseph was recently appointed to the position for six months in the first instance.
He told DNO that he intends to move the corporation forward.
“In terms of work load, I have never found myself running away from challenges,” he stated. “I was the Mayor of Roseau and I have changed the landscape of Roseau, so coming into the position of acting manager I think what has to be done is to look at the necessary policies of the corporation and to work with the policies and move the corporation forward.”
Joseph is not new to DBS. He started working at the corporation in March 1990 as a sales representative and rose through the ranks to become the sales and marketing manager. He has also acted as general manager in brief stints at various times.
He said he is bringing a lot of experience to the job.
“I am bringing additional experience, I am bringing a great level of capacity. I am bringing also efficiency to the institution and I think one of the things I am bringing more so is my relationship with the staff,” he stated. “I think that is one of the most important or critical components of the corporation.”
He is of the view that collaboration is key to achieving growth at the corporation.
Joseph is a known supporter and a top member of the ruling Dominica Labour Party (DLP), who contested the Roseau North Constituency for the DLP.
However, he said, his political affiliation will not affect his position at DBS.
“It’s not fair to judge someone because of their political background or backing,” he said. “I have always been very clear as to who I support and I am not going to mix my political position with my position as Acting Manager.”
He said he wants to be judged on his capabilities, competence and his way of doing business.
“I have had several years of experience at the corporation,” Joseph noted. “So I don’t want anybody to look at my appointment as political.”
Joseph’s appointment falls under the portfolio of minister for telecommunications, Ambrose George, who would have received a recommendation from the DBS board before making the final decision.
so Dominica come there nah?politics doing things,.
It is pointless listening to DBS Radio and I don’t intend to listen to them unless they return to the status of the Nation Station. In my view, Q95 is the Nation Station. This appointment has re-enforced my conviction. DBS has sadly become a propaganda machine for the DLP and that’s wrong. The opposition should have full access or equal access to the station so that people can have a balanced view of what is going on the the country. How can this change when you deliberately appoint one of your henchmen to continue to ostracise the elegitimate opposition in the country? This man is certainly not qualified to hold such a position, then tell me, how is he going to take the corporation forward? My view is, it is election time and the DLP needs all it’s henchmen in position to execute their Nasty Labour party politics. He is placed there for 6 months within which time the elections will be called and then, he reverts to where he truely belongs, in the dirty gutters of Roseau, which he left as Mayor. You must fail because the people of Dominica has woken up to your dirty tricks and deceptions. They are speaking and Change is a must not an option.LLL will take care of that
Congrats Mr X- Mayor and i hope that your words do not come back to haunt you. I am one of those persons who are prepared to give you the benefit of doubt; however you can take comfort in the fact that the good Book say’s if the truly confess of your sins you can be saved. The same holds true for the job that you now hold; so don’t worry bro you can continue sinning politically as long as you like. Just make sure that you confess to the jesus RS.
When Mr. Lennox Linton became leader of UWP Team Dominica, all DLP supporters including Skeritt, Tony, Aaron, Alick and CECIL have been hounding Linton to produce his C.V. As far as they are concerned, he isn’t fit to be Prime Minister of Dominica. Their main concern is that he never went to University, he is a high school drop out. In order to be the general manager of the National Radio Station, you must be able to produce the following, bachelor degree in mass communication, degree in Finance and account, degree in journalism, ten years experience in a similar job. What is good for the goose is good for the gander, will CECIL please present to the people of Dominica, any of the qualifications presented above.
Get your leader to present his first.
Appointed to act; can someone explain such an appointment please? No doubt D.B.S management is well aware that Mr. Joseph is incapable of performing the duties of a general manager; however, the labour party cronies decide to make the post available to him anyway. In the new world which the PM alleges to be taking us, exist a field of science know a “business management” and business 101 will affirm that an appointment to act comes from within, and more often that person is next in line to the individual he or she will be deputizing, for example, (the assistant general manager, and if no such position exist then what about a senior department head to act as general manager).
“Square pegs in round holes” has being Dominica’s downfall for the past 15 years, that paradigm is a strategy for certain disaster, is is time to start instituting policies which will be conducive to the development of all our people. It is clear that this appointment is political in nature; how else can we justify to say Jeff Charles and the new appoint to be the same. I say, we are in for some hard times at D.B.S, because, their will be no respect for this appointed acting G. M.
There is an old saying; “a one eye man is king in a land of blind people” we are not blind, we have our two eyes,so then why should a vision blurred self-serving, government be allowed to lead. think about it.
My bad, Angelo Allen was News editor. Fair is fair. The rest of the comment still stands.
All this noise about Cecil and party affiliation and qualification and Skerrit and Labor Party!!
We all seem to have forgotten when Angelo Allen was appointed under UWP as General Manager with NO qualification for the job, and with no experience at DBS; Cecil has an abundance of experience.
Where are those voices now? WHERE?
You may be right but where does this leave Cecil Joseph?
Parry, I would inform the Prime Minister that the appointment of Mr. Cecil Joseph as Acting General Manager of the National Radio Station just before the General Elections was a bad decision. Parry should remind the Prime Minister that Mr. Joseph has been politician. He has been involved in General Elections in the Goodwill Constituency representing the DLP also the city council, therefore, he must be partisan.
Dominica is run like a small grocery shop where by jobs are creAted for the boys. Now that election is close, the government is running a mock with everything. Only in Dominca or any corrupt state can such a non qualified person be made manager. Its like mr skerrit and his failed government is playin cards where there winner gets his or her wish. Cards for jobs,favours n other acts. Cecil may have said , aye boss you know we from the same village n am no longer mayor please am begging you set me up as manager at dbs. If am manager labour must win. I will foool Dominicans as we have beeen doin by preaching that we are not political. Mr Joseph must have said , “am not qualified but who cares, all I want is the.money to live life, build a bigger house, a bigger car n eat nice foood n travel as a diplomat. Lol.
Dominica is like a big papyshow wedding.
Why did the pm not put cecil as mAnager of solid waste? He would keeep Roseau clean . Imagine mr joseph saying he changed Roseau, maybe from bad to worst. Mr Joseph enjoy the cookies from the candy shop….
Mr pm cheeers for looking out for your people. You guys real bright… Demmm felllas so bright dey go run dbs right, Dominica labour station.. Dls. DlS n GIS = C J n M P. De pm doin algebra. DE DBS BOSS N GIS BOSS.MORE.THAN QUALIFY…LOL..
stupes, that is news then? i even surprise they didn’t appoint him or a next one like him sooner.
Cecil you may only fool a fool.
Is now we like west indies…nou finni bat..
Hello and good evening my people. Well Mr Joseph is a political appointee and that’s okay because the station is owned by the Government. Based on what I read he was the sales manager therefore he is qualify to hold this position. My problem with Mr Joseph is with Roseau a speciall the gutters which has not been address. I don’t reside or vote in Dominica rather I just want improvements for our citizens regardless of which political party is in office.
Just hope you will give the opposition equal airtime Cecil,as you are supposed to. Let’s see how equal your socialist principles are.
Lord, please ,deliver Dominica from Skerrit.
Cecil has no business being GM of DBS.
The fella from CB have no business being on DBS Board.
These people have no clue about how a National Radio Station should be run.
Again, Skerrit putting all his puppets in place.
The world is watching.
I hope the Opposition will have access to the National Radio Station.
God is about to reign judgement on Dominica if this
wickedness and crookedness continues.
Dominicans, please, f you love your country get Skerrit out. He is destroying the very fabric of the country
My favorite creole saying is, “la bab camawad ou ka pwee diffay, wousae saiu.” Isn’t the same Cecil, who, together with his political friends were all over Mr. Lennox Linton to produce his CV. Isn’t it the same Cecil, together with his Prime Minister called Mr. Lennox Linton a high school drop out. Isn’t it the same Cecil who sat by his comrades on the animal and accused Mr. Lennox Linton of larking leadership qualities, even though he was manager of human resources at a local company. Today, he has accepted an executive position which calls for a University Degree in Communication or the equivalent, even though he doesn’t have a GCE certificate or the equivalent. Cecil must now tell Dominicans, what school of Communication he attended, he must tell Dominicans whether he has a Degree in English. Kamala claims to know journalism like the back of her hand, she also claims to have a Degree in Journalism. How can Aaron who has been merciless on Mr. Linton sit by and accept someone with no University Degree, not a practicing journalist and especially someone who believes in the same political principals like himself, just step over his partner. I say shame, shame, shame.
cecil you are the who have to show that you areabove party politics.
so now just telling someone congrats getting u a thumbs down…smh you people not nothing easy
Congratulations for putting square pegs in round holes? You ever heard of the Peter Principle, managers being promoted to their level of incompetence? Cecil Joseph’s performance as Mayor of Rosea should have told us that. I feel rather sorry for the poor man but it is not he who appointed them to that post was it? And how could he have said no?
I am so happy for Cecil to be given the opportunity to lead this national iconic institution. I read the comments being made about the desired qualification to lead the Corporation and the fact that Cecil does not measure up. Some of those comments are constructively critical, while others are political. Personally, I have known Cecil since primary school and we have remained friends, and I am confident that he can provide the leadership the Corporation needs. He may not have an accredited marketablel qualification from an academic institution but he is experientially qualified. His lifelong learning does mean something.
This leads me to a debate which occupied the national media earlier this year on the question of the academic qualification of Lennox Linton. The DLP machinery made mileage of the debate; holding to their belief that Lennox is not qualified to lead the country because of his lack of academic degrees. Now, this same DLP is giving Cecil the nod to lead the national radio station. Isn’t this laughable? What is Atley’s take on Cecil’s appointment? What is Tony’s take? What is Lennox Lawrence’s take?
None of those you mentioned has a “take” on this matter. The only take that counts is skerro’s to have his ….. guard the against the floodgate of advertisments, programmes and live broadcasts that the UWP will request from DBS.. Mark you he may plead to the comrade to allow 1 or 2 to be aired to prove that he is not biased. But he is the same cecil who lied about labour buying all the air time in the last election and refusing the cheque that the same kamala brought to DBS to pay for the programmes that had been previously offered. Let’s see how this pans out.
Congrats Cecil. Make SMA and Br. Germain proud.
He went to SMA! Surprised and Linton did not finish and he is like A king compared to Cecil in speech thought process etc etc etc Lol! Why finish HighSchool then?
Now Neo -DLP appointded Joseph as Acting Mx for 6 months and elections are constitutionally due in April 2015 which I hope no P.M political party leader can change that otherwise the country will go to Hell.
I was just deducing, six (6) months coincides with the April date. Is it because if by another Miracle occurs and Team Dominique wins Cecil will not have to be asked to leave? Skerro and his board of supporters at the Station set this up just in case.
Cecil was one of the most studious and hardworking students @ SMA. We don’t all have the gift of the gab and bluster. Talk is cheap.
For the first time in Dominica we are trying to install a guy as PM who has never run a Rum shop, never sat in Parliament, never been voted dog catcher. Nothing. I want to paraphrase my good friend Isaac Eloi of Morne Jaune a poto Freedomite, saying to Eugenia Charles when she was hoping to install Allyne Carbon PM. He said ” Ou vlai metez Dominique en Lamain Allyne Carbon. To which she replied. ‘I am a good backseat driver. Does Linton even have a competent backseat driver. Becarefull we “tiway boyo metez pai people”.
The only question which I have for the members of this board/forum is this: I Mr. Cecil Joseph qualified for the job? Based on his background, I believe that he is qualified for the job. “I am bringing additional experience, I am bringing a great level of capacity, I am bringing also efficiency to the institution and I think one of the things I am bringing more so is my relationship with the staff,” he stated. “I think that is one of the most important or critical components of the corporation.”
Sometimes in cooperations, the mist qualified person who applies for the position may not get the position because of their ideals, style, background etc does not fit that of the company. Let us all not jump and assume that he got the job because of his political affiliation. He has a work history with the cooperation at a managerial position at that. May be he got the job because he best suits the requirements of the cooperation and not because of his political affiliation.
Let’s be clear here; I have no political affiliation. I am just a unbiased Dominican voter.
One Love Dominicans!!!
repitition
DNO why did you change the picture? You mean wearing a suit makes him more of a gentleman> Have you forgotten the President’s party? Who was forced to pay for the drinks taken without permission? Looks like Cecil is already controlling Dno please let us know.
ADMIN: LOL
Is he a Secondary , College of University graduate ? Because as they have been saying Lennox is not , so he can can’t hold a top job.
I guess LL can say what Cecil &Righteous said LMAO
This hilarious. DA just keep on keeping on and setting the best performance for a Broadway act in her politics.
Extremely comical, delightful excessively entertaining. Even with her officials Health Min their plans for screening. They have a place to quarantine suspect cases. They will end up mixing a pt who may have a fever from Appendicitis with Dengue, with Pneumonia ,HIV etc with a respiratory ailment with a real Ebola pt.
Just a little deviation.
This is all the theatric of our comical society.
What are the qualifications for managing Dominica’s institution? I think that if DNO was posting an article on the appointment of a new manager the article should be Mr Joseph holds a degree in mass communication and graduate degree in management. this would overshadow his political affiliations. we should employ those who are qualified for these positions not those who are affiliated to the ruling party
” Mr Joseph holds a degree in mass communication and graduate degree in management…” heehehee
well one never knows after all SKreet have a B.A in English & Minor in Psychology.. Labour making all kinds of things so I wouldn’t put it past them.
With the almighty Skerro all things are possible.
First Political D/can commandment.
Joseph responded to Skerro chant. ” God is good everytime, & everytime God is good even if he does not say it any more.
God spoke to him telling don’t call his name in vain – sinner!
Noni party support is all one needs in this Caribbean region.
That is better than a PHD see the Ambassador would not apply even if he is the party’s Gobbles.
Joseph has a Party certificate which triumphs over any degree.
I heard Mr. Cecil Joseph on a crazy ghost radio DLP talk show saying he is proceeding to make it his business to be at the red clinic to identify UWP supporters to prevent the pm from giving them hands out and to make them shame, and hear what d Rasta had to add to that and, they even goes there in red.
A boycotter runs the state house, and a victimizer runs the state radio station.
i always wonder what some people mean when they say HOW LONG NOT LONG i hope they do not mean that it is not long again for workers to come in power,because if thats what they mean i want them to list the 8 seats that labour is going to loose in order for workers to get into power.i have been asking for that list for months now and no one not even linton can give me that list
Were has mr Mervin Paul? wasent hs the manager of DBS.
“its not fair to judge someone because of their political background or backing” cecil(presidents wine)joseph go say that to your pm cause he said anybody supporting team dominica are dishonest people..
Am out of Da too long man! I know of Governor cake now President ‘s wine LMAO.
Cecil please do the island of Dominica something good be balance, when the Team Dominica comes in for air time be above board and fit them in, they are Dominicans too!!!
DNO, are you referring to the same Cecil Joseph Peter Karam asked the government to put a cap on? According to DNO, April 17th, 2013 at 11:25 AM ” Karam is now calling on the government to put a ‘cap’ on Joseph. “I am asking the Minister of Information to put a cap on this man immediately this morning,” Karam told DNO on Wednesday. “This man is out of control. Stop him, get him off our back.” Also “I am not going to speak to this brother at all,” he stressed. “He is very unreasonable and I think there is something wrong with his thinking.” Well, if a fellow laborite found Cecil unfair then his appointment should spell it out.
Is this the same cecil Joseph that had to clear the air about the president party? Here is what DNO posted on Wednesday, January 18th, 2012 at 12:02 PM : “I didn’t steal any wine from the President’s party, I didn’t steal any beer from the president’s party, if anybody has that notion I think that’s a very dim notion,” Mayor of the City of Roseau Cecil Joseph has been telling Dominica News Online
I hope this is a different Cecil Joseph that has gotton this new government job.
Cecil I’m not mad at you. Get all the jobs that you can get while you have the health and strength to do it. You were always a tenacious worker. As Mayor of Roseau, I don’t know what happened there.
The streets were a mess, the gutters were dirty and garbage was left in the streets for days.
That’s how Dominica works. “Pull String” is still alive and well. If you have to “Sing for your supper” do it. Who cares? As long as there’s bread on your table.
Was it Mr. Joseph’s duty to clean the gutters and dispose of the garbage? I thought there were institutions who were assigned these responsibilities.
As the former Mayor of Roseau, I believe that street cleaning and maintaining a clean city fell underneath his portfolio as Mayor.
Then again his party made “Bobol” with funds for rubbish bins that were air marked for the streets of Roseau. You’re so correct. It wasn’t his responsibility at all. His job was traveling at Tax Payer’s expense, have a good time and collect his salary while garbage piled up on the streets of Roseau.
Do your thing brother skerrit, you are led by the spirit, Dominicans gave you a card blanche. They say you have dimbles, you handsome, you can negotiate for 19 hours, they say you are the wisest PM, they even refer to you as Jesus Christ,, the savor himself. No need to question you
Under normal circumstances I would be so proud of another Vieille- case man getting promoted. However, with the political biasness that’s been displayed by Cecil Joseph in the past and like Charles Savarin, before he became president, Cecil has been loud and clear on his position on subjects like; corruption, communism, greed and other subjects of national interest. Take a look at Vieille – case team Skerrit has put in top positions not because of national development but rather to push his nasty political agenda and most of all, to cover his corruption:
Roosevelt Skerrt- PM: Vieille case
Daniel Carbon – Police Commissioner: Vieille Case
Cecil Joseph – Acting Manager of DBS: Vieille- Case
Ricky Brumant: Director of Agriculture: Vielle- case
Danny Walter – key handler of Port Authorityr: Vieille – case
Helen Royer- PS ministry of Health – Vieille case / Penville
Matthew Leblanc- Labor Commissioner: Vieille Case
We don’t even want to mention Skerrit’s spiritual advisor, who is also from Vieille case,
When one looks at the above mentioned appointees and their connections, one will understand why the sectors they represent are the WORSE ones in Dominica. They are their for one reason, which is to cover and facilitate the corruption of Skerrit.
Boy, you making Vieille Case look like a nest of vipers. You sure it doesn’t have some good people there also? (…I will lend you my torch!).
Sir
Would you mind providing examples of how you changed the landscape of Roseau?
I am genuinely baffled that you have made such a statement, so I am requesting clarity from you.
Merci
Congratulations Comrade Joseph on your appointment as Manager of DBS. Despite your political affiliation i am confident that you will do a good job. As a Dominican who has worked at the corporation for several years and served in management, you are duly qualified to hold the position of manager. You are not just come. You know the corporation inside out. You will do well. I count on you to exercise some balance as you serve the two sides of the isle. Remain blessed my brother.
So dem fellas own
the court,
the ipo.
the electoral commission,
the churches,
the presidency,
the police force,
and the media?
hmmmm
Don’t forget the toilets. Very important!
Just like the IPO, the registry.
Dennis Joseph was a strong labourite under Patrick John and was appointed General Manager ahead of the late Barnett Defoe and Alvin Knight and we quickly came to accept the reality that Dennis was the greatest, and best DJ on the island and one othe best DJs in the caribbean back in the mid seventies and also a great Manager of the Station after Jeff Charles. Then, after a long stint at DBS he became Director of Public Broadcasting. No one complained. His radio voice and jingles were phenomenal. H e started off with his “Book of Rules” programme on Thursdays prime time under the managership of Jeff Charles. That is where he caught my attention and many others. He woke me up every morning with his baritone radio voice, “Wake up, Wake up. So, please give Cecil Joseph a chance to prove himself. Maybe he will do well at the station.
I agree with you on several points. Essentially all administrations put their mercenaries in such position and I am not so naive to think otherwise. So you said all the right things to include the fact that Cecil is lying. You have admitted that his appointment is political.
Other than that Cecil go underperform as customary and whenever the UWP gets into office we will again witness another session of Angelo Alleyne’s arrogance and display of entitlement. As for the Freedom Party well I don’t expect anything cause those would have been assigned to DBS machinations are too busy pretending to be Laborites and kissing up. Well I don’t think Johnson Jon Rose would like to endure another session of victimization from Angello,Edison, Wallace etc.
The irony of it all is the arrogance and even violent attempts to muzzle voices against corruption and victimization. It is the same Tony,Cecil and other leeches that was on radio crying corruption during UWP and Freedom Party reign.
Oh what a Web we weave when try to deceive
To dare to compare Cecil Joseph to the great Dennis Joseph is an insult. Cecil should be compared to Groovy Bat and Mcpherson St Luce
I will be honest. It is hard to find anybody who is not affiliated to a party in Dominica. I would not judge you on that. I am no fan of the current labour party because of its mode of operations. I think based on your past experience you fit the position. You have worked there in better days and no one can take that away.
Having said this, what I will judge is the decisions you make during your tenure and whether you can separate politics from what is right. That is, making DBS non biased, giving both opposition and government equal opportunity to share their views, being objective in reporting and letting listeners form their own opinions of the facts. Do more investigative reporting.
Judgment reserved.
IS CECIL JOSEPH SERIOUS………READ THIS…..
“………….and wants the public to look beyond his political affiliation and see him as a competent person who wants to move the company forward”
Is if the same Cecil Joseph just last week spewing political garbage and praising his questionable PM for doing good on Kairi and covered live on DBS Radio the same state owned radio he says we must look and show no political alliance or allegiance on his part. What happen Cecil, you think, including us at DBS that we are stupid. Are you for real. What blatant ignorance is this. You have the gull to talk this utter rubbish to us.
Are you sufficiently competent to hold this job or is it that you are last on the list to be offered because as YOU know more experienced and competent at DBS are able to but say for fear of the IPO and political interference.?
Cecil , we are watching you as opposition parties are victimised by not having equal access. DBS belongs to US, not Skerrit, Not the corrupt DLP, and not the boom boom flies
Now read this: according to DNO:
“Joseph’s appointment falls under the portfolio of minister for telecommunications, Ambrose George, who would have received a recommendation from the DBS’ board and who makes the final decision”
Really, is this for real…………Ambrose is just the scapegoat, we know if any matter it is Skerrit who calls or is called……and we want to know who referred you to the Board ????????
POOR US IN DOMINICA….WE HAVE OUR OWN ISIS TO FIGHT…..THEY ARE DANGEROUS
If you are putting political affiliation aside in visit UWP Team Dominica air time on the state own radio Mr. GM
Congrats Cecil your determination have taken you thus far and will bring you further the sky is your limit.
the clouds are hanging real low now.
Did I miss something, wasn’t there a manager right after Mr Meade, I don’t remember the gentle man’s name. Can someone fill me in?
Cecil what landscape you changed in Roseau.So mant pit toilets still exist in the city,its all politics.who do you think your fooling.
Of course Cecil changed the landscape of Roseau. He is not lying it is right there for everyone to see for example:
– Scores of paros parading the streets
– Stray dog defecating proudly in the street
– Rubbish strewn all over the streets
– Stench of urine everywhere
– Uneven and broken sidewalks
– Blocked gutters
There is lots more so give the man a break, he has really gone out of his way to ‘change’ the landscape of Roseau from the acceptable to the terrible.
All I can say is Woy!!!!!! for this appointment.
Cecil my friend, remember they taught us in sabbath school, that the Bible says: what will it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul? or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? God has given you a chance to redeem yourself. support your party, but be fair. As your friend I am willing to believe you in the words that you just spoke, but talk is cheap… show us. I will be the biggest believer in your change when I see you allowing every political party in Dominica equal time to express their political views. Remember how they taught us tolerance for others who had another religious view, and this one concerned eternal life, so much more for the things that are just for a time….Go back to your roots my brother and try to find out what is more important…. ask yourself that most important of all questions… What will I give in exchange for my soul? May God bless you brother Joseph.
lol here we go again my boy if they dont do what u want box them down cause i see u fight already lol
Groovy Bat. Who the hell is that but anyway I do like the name
Groovy Bat 
Fantastic name
Slowly Dominica is becoming a failed state. This is what happens when you put people who have not proven themselves to be successful in anything as leaders of somehting.
Slowly???? The the understatement of the century.
That is the truth.
That is so true; like the one who wants to be come the PM of this country.
Fast N Furious you right because money take flight on it on and you everywhere without shame
Fast and FOOLISH
““So I don’t want anybody to look at my appointment as political.””…..But it is!
How can you expect people not to be cynical when that same DBS did not accept advertising from the opposition parties during the last election particularly when it is a state owned enterprise? There was not even a semblance of fairness in this whole process. Now that a former candidate is running the corporation, do you really expect us to have any confidence in you, despite your qualifications?
It is all political my brother.
When UWP was in office did they allow the DLP equal airtime on DBS? NOOOO> However, I am for equal air time for all political parties. UWP must first apologize to DLP for not allowing air time on DBS during their time in office then we can discuss it as mature islanders.
All that have to finish jes now. Just call the election.
Mr. Joseph sir you take in front indicating about your political affiliation we all know where it lies and you and the labour party will do all in their power to ensure that the UWP does not have a voice on the state own radio station. but sir, enjoy it while it last is just a matter of time.
I have not seen the land scape of Roseau that u have changed… U failed as a polition , failed as mayor please do better at this new one…
Congrats Mr. Joseph. Please try to get some qualifications so people willl not question your competence for such a position. You know we making noise about Lennox and his lack of degree so do an online MBA asap
DBS is the nations station and its news and reporting should reflect that
” A great level of capacity” What the heck
does that mean.
Cecil you changed the Landscape of Roseau?
Lol…LOl…LOl
WTH!! You beat me to it
I was wondering what that means. Lol. See I’m not alone
Yes he changed the landscape….but for the WORST…
pray, what is Cecil Joseph’s legacy as mayor of Roseau?
Good for you Boss man Congratulations ….God bless you on your new position.
Well Cecil,I don’t think you get that job because of your political afiliation;I think you are the right man for the job;You are fair; honest;well balance;You are going to open the station to all who want to bash the opposition,You are going to put a BIG PHOTO of LENNOX LINTON on the wall with a target on HIM, so enjoy you cheez and run this station with COST OVERRRUN,the PM’s song.
Election on the horizon so DLP securing the nation’s airways in order to be taken advantage of at the tax payers cost. Go ahead Skerro, go ahead because you time in office is drawing neigh. What happen to Curtis Matthew? Isn’t he more qualified for that position? Life is just so unfair in this country its becoming pitiful. But, Change is a MUST!
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
Clearly this confirms we have sank to an all time low.
P.M paying back transfer fees garbage bin Borbol, Villas Cecil, Law students scandal, construction of a $400K 3 bedroom house to $????? Millions???? I guess like not catering for inflation he did not for is growing family hence needed a bigger place Lol! He told us it would be a modest home of 3 bedrooms all he had to do was build it and add two more rooms. He chose to compete with the palace he hope to occupy when he becomes president after he stop being the P>M lol
There is so much to read in that story it is not funny. Just looking at the comments quoted by the acting manager is a testimony to the fact that he is neither competent nor capable to handle the job. As for being qualified it is amazing that with all that flurry about Lennox not having qualifications that Skerrit would put the most unqualified person to head the state owned DBS. The question that the DNO reporter should have asked is why is it that after four years of the Programme Director acting as manager that all of a sudden on the eve of an election she has been reverted to her position and a labour party goon is put to act. All he is there to do is ensure that no UWP programmes especially live broadcasts are aired on DBS. Shermaine would have tried to be more professional and balanced, but not this . We will see what happens when election fever starts. A comedy of error this DBS!!!!
Boy allyou fellas good too wee.
You know what I mean… too good weh boss..!
Congratulations!!!
Does one need any qualifications to be manager of a radio station? Curious mind just asking, DNO donot delete my comment.
No honey they don’t.
They don’t need qualifications to be a doctor either.
There must be some level of qualification and experience for a job….
But he has been working there since 1990, isn’t that what they call ‘on the job’ experience??
Cecil has clearly shown his political stance, and we all know that this will influence him. Who do you think you are taking Dominicans for retards. Fellow Dominicans, Dominica is in a sad state, we need to pray for this country, alas Papa Bondieu.
