In a recent address to supporters at the Patience Hill Community Centre, Tobago, PNM Tobago Council political leader Ancil Dennis made startling allegations against Trinidad-based contractors hired by the Tobago House of Assembly (THA). Dennis claimed that these contractors have diverted funds intended for road construction to purchase ‘goodies’ for voters ahead of the upcoming THA elections, scheduled between January 12 and February 12. He warned that these items, including household appliances and food vouchers, are being imported from China and other places to influence voter support. Dennis urged Tobagonians to consider the long-term impact of their vote, emphasizing that the next four years could significantly affect future generations. Deputy Chief Secretary Dr Faith Brebnor, when contacted for comment, dismissed the allegations, suggesting that the PNM might be projecting its own intentions onto others.
