Oropouche East MP Dr Roodal Mooni­lal is call­ing for a full in­ves­ti­ga­tion in­to the main­te­nance and use of the Uni­ver­si­ty of the West In­dies (UWI) South Cam­pus in Debe, which he says cost tax­pay­ers near­ly $1 bil­lion but re­mains most­ly un­oc­cu­pied and in dis­re­pair.

Speak­ing af­ter a tour of the fa­cil­i­ty on Tues­day, Dr Mooni­lal said he felt "an­gry and dis­ap­point­ed" by its con­di­tion. He was joined by UWI St Au­gus­tine Prin­ci­pal Pro­fes­sor Rose-Marie Belle An­toine, Ed­u­ca­tion Min­is­ter Pro­fes­sor Prakash Prasad, Oropouche West MP Dr Lack­ram Bo­doe, and oth­er uni­ver­si­ty of­fi­cials.
