OPPOSITION Leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar has slammed certain media houses which tried to get her party's executive to reallocate airtime – already paid for and booked by the UNC – to another political party.

In a statement on March 21, she called on media houses to honour the UNC's pre-booked and pre-paid advertising slots and broadcast arrangements for the April 28 general election.

"The UNC has been contacted by various media houses, on behalf of the PNM, to request the relinquishing of almost fifty per cent of our prime advertising and broadcast spots for the 2025 general election to the PNM," she said in the statement.
