Former prime minister Dr Keith Rowley has pushed back against claims by Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar that her administration is responsible for record profits at the National Gas Company (NGC).
In a statement responding to Persad-Bissessar’s address in Parliament on Friday, Rowley argued the reported $3.285 billion profit for 2025 stems from policies and restructuring carried out under the previous People’s National Movement (PNM) government.
Persad-Bissessar had told Parliament the figure represents the highest NGC profit in 11 years, saying, “What they could not do in ten years we did in ten months,” while crediting what she described as a “transformational approach” by her administration.
