Culture Minister Michelle Benjamin and the Emancipation Support Committee are moving forward, even after she issued a stinging media release on Sunday demanding accountability from the organisation over government financing.
Hours after the statement, which was condemned by former minister of culture Randall Mitchell and Opposition MP Dr Nyan Gadsby-Dolly, Benjamin said she met with the ESCTT.
“We met again as recently as last night (Sunday) and today. I am confident in our shared commitment to honouring the legacy of Emancipation with the dignity and respect it deserves. We move forward together,” she said yesterday.
