Opposition Leader Pennelope Beckles has raised serious concerns over what she describes as Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s “dictatorial” behaviour, following comments made by the head of government in response to questions about a potential military facility.
In a statement issued this morning, Beckles said Persad-Bissessar’s directive for citizens to “behave yuhself” reflects a lack of respect for accountability and democratic scrutiny.
She warned that the Prime Minister’s recent responses leave more questions than answers and criticised what she called a dismissive attitude toward public inquiry.
