Trinidad’s Prime Minister, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, has asked that the President revoke the appointments of Attorney General Anand Ramlogan and National Security Minister Gary Griffith. She has also called for the resignation of the Director of the Police Complaints Authority (PCA) David West, for their roles in the witness-tampering investigation ordered by Acting Police Commissioner Stephen Williams.
Trinidad’s former High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, attorney Garvin Nicholas will be the new Attorney General, and retired Brigadier General Carl Alfonso is the National Security Minister.
The announcement was made last evening by the Trinidadian leader who has a growing reputation of sacking her ministers and other Government officials for wrongdoings.
The Prime Minister has also removed Senate President Timothy Hamel-Smith, Sports Minister Rupert Griffith, Minister in the Works and Transport Ministry, Stacy Roopnarine, Minister in the National Security Ministry, Embau Moheni, and Justice Minister Emmanuel George.
No replacement was named for Hamel-Smith, who acted as President in the absence of Anthony Carmona.
Legal Affairs Minister, Prakash Ramadhar will take on the Justice Ministry. Former advisor in the Office of the Prime Minister Christine Nawal Hosein is the new Minister of Social Development and the People. Soca Warrior footballer Brent Sancho is the Sports Minister, NJAC’s newly elected leader Kwesu Mutima is now a minister in the Works and Infrastructure Ministry.
In an 18-minute address that began eight minutes later than its planned 7.30p.m start, Persad-Bissessar said that she had asked for and received the resignation of Ramlogan and Griffith.
