To­ba­go Peo­ple’s Par­ty (TPP) Po­lit­i­cal Leader Far­ley Au­gus­tine has re­ject­ed claims that his par­ty is aligned with the Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress (UNC), dis­miss­ing a vi­ral voice note as “fool­ish­ness” and po­lit­i­cal mis­chief aimed at mis­lead­ing vot­ers ahead of the Gen­er­al Elec­tion.

Speak­ing at a po­lit­i­cal meet­ing on Sat­ur­day night in Crown Point, Au­gus­tine said he had no in­ten­tion of re­spond­ing to the “mis­chief” be­ing spread by po­lit­i­cal op­po­nents. He not­ed that this was not the first time at­tempts had been made to link him to the UNC and ac­cused his de­trac­tors of us­ing tech­nol­o­gy to repack­age old smear tac­tics.

“I do not care to re­spond to the fool­ish­ness, be­cause To­ba­go has se­ri­ous is­sues,” Au­gus­tine said.
