HISTORIAN Prof Claudius Fergus says he is at a loss to understand why UNC PRO Dr Kirk Meighoo is continuing with his narrative that Dr Eric Williams is not Trinidad and Tobago's first prime minister.

Meighoo has said this view is a personal view and not a UNC position.

In a statement on September 3, Fergus said, "His agenda is obviously political, but even so, I am at a loss as to what political mileage he might have hoped to derive from deliberately distorting history."
