Former Antigua Prime Minister Lester Bird, Member of Parliament Asot Michael and former Antigua and Barbuda Government Ambassador to the United Kingdom Sir Ronald Sanders, among others, have been named as persons of interest in Antigua and Barbuda’s probe into a multimillion dollar fraud probe in the twin-island nation.
The investigation concerns a US$29.7 million loan with interest from Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries Company (IHI Japan) to the Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA.)
Hey please put my name on di bobol list!
LESTER BIRD was and still is my Hero
HEY FOLKS ,DO NOT JUMP TO CONCLUSION TOO FAST,JUST AN INVESTIGATION SO LOGICALLY THESE PEOPLE WHO WERE IN GOVERNMENT WILL BE QUESTIONED,,,,
I thought the article was about Antigua
How does Dominica part of this? All u better
leave my country alone.
Them politicians just can’t keep their hand out of the cookie jar!! Stop taking work for your own
At least the police in Antigua have the testcular fortitude to name these men as people of interest in such a case. What of our police here in Dominica?
Don’t worry Lester, Sancho Panza from Dominica will ride to your rescue…..at no charge!
Whatever we state we must ensure that it is the truth. In this case, it is the truth as reported on more than one occasion.
This is a lot of money to steal from the people. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. This money should have been used to assist the poor, unemployed and under-employed who work for a measly salary.
This is a huge crime and against the people. I always say that one day God will punish them.
Holy Scriptures: The Word of the Lord: “What will it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul?”
When will we see such in Dominica? Is Lester Bird related to any high profile Dominican citizen? Just asking……………..!!
Check Trinidad for Ronald Saunders……….Every week he writing a Colum in the Newspapers there……..as if he is some holier than though model citizen/diplomat……..
@ DEON
He is a hypocrite and one who pretends. Sooner or later they will stand trial. Why is it so difficult to prosecute them? They are being protected by the Law whose job it is to ensure that justice is meted out and justice prevails and that they should not extend preferential treatment to anyone no matter what their status. It is unfair to do so.
JJJIC LA YO CHABEH CHUCKIE!!!!!! HAHH SQQQQQUEEZE THEM MAKE THEM CALL MORE NAMES!!
Expect nothing to come out of this its eight years now and the Antiguan people have been asking for justice to be done, it appears that the opposition in antigua is a much stronger political force than the government in office
It is the illegal money that is making them strong.
LOLLL
It is known that the PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT along with the CONSTRUCTION SECTOR are those which are most prone to Government FRAUD and CORRUPTION in MOST countries
ehemmmm i was not expecting or seeking a thumbs up nor any kind of APPROVAL for SPEAKING FACTS!

Coming closer home….when your neighbor house catch fire water yours! Dominica look out.
One day.One Good day, Dominica and Dominicans will be relieved when some Dominicans will be FORCED,under oath to answere questions pertaining to CORRUPT ACTIVITIES. I END MY CASE.
