OILFIELDS Workers Trade Union (OWTU) president-general Ancel Roget says the UNC made no promises to him or the union in exchange for it helping the party to try and win the April 28 general election.

He made these comments during a walkabout in Point Fortin in support of OWTU/UNC candidate Ernesto Kesar on April 22.

On December 12, UNC political leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar met with representatives of the Progressive Empowerment Party (PEP), Movement for National Development (MND), Congress of the People (COP), the OWTU, the Public Services Association (PSA), the Postal Workers Union and the Fire Services Association to discuss a coalition against the PNM.
