Amid wide­spread al­le­ga­tions, Pres­i­dent of the Trinidad and To­ba­go Ag­gre­gate Pro­duc­ers Al­liance (TTA­PA), Nigel Tenia, claimed that his mur­dered friend and busi­ness as­so­ciate, Dan­ny Guer­ra, was a fi­nancier of To­co/San­gre Grande can­di­date Wayne Sturge in the 2025 gen­er­al elec­tion.

Tenia claimed that had it not been for Guer­ra’s ac­tive cam­paign­ing for the Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress, it would have been dif­fi­cult for Sturge to top­ple Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment can­di­date Roger Mon­roe.

Af­ter win­ning the seat, Sturge was ap­point­ed Min­is­ter of De­fence by Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar.
