The Point Lisas Industrial Port Development Corporation Limited (Plipdeco) says a two-page letter circulating on social media, purporting to be signed by its chairman and instructing that projects be fast-tracked to make the Government look good, is fraudulent. It said the matter is now engaging the attention of the police.
In a media release on Saturday, the state company, which is under the Ministry of Works and Transport, said the content in the post is “misleading, fabricated and deliberately designed to misinform the public and undermine the integrity of the corporation.”
According to the document, which was purportedly signed by chairman Annette Wattie and directed to vice-president Curtis Dennie, Dennie was instructed to fast-track four projects. The aim, according to the document, was to make the current administration look as though it is driving tangible, visible development that directly supports national economic advancement before the election.
