Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar has re­it­er­at­ed her stern warn­ing to mem­bers of her Gov­ern­ment to steer clear of ques­tion­able al­liances, just a day af­ter pub­licly threat­en­ing to “buss their heads” and fire min­is­ters caught “ca­vort­ing” with fig­ures linked to cor­rup­tion.

Speak­ing yes­ter­day at a Ca­roni lease dis­tri­b­u­tion cer­e­mo­ny at the South­ern Acad­e­my for the Per­form­ing Arts, San Fer­nan­do, Per­sad-Bisses­sar dou­bled down on her re­marks from the night be­fore dur­ing a meet­ing in Cou­va, when she ac­cused some of her MPs of min­gling with “crooked con­trac­tors and lawyers” tied to the for­mer Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment ad­min­is­tra­tion.

While she did not name any in­di­vid­u­als dur­ing the meet­ing and re­fused to do so yes­ter­day as well, the Prime Min­is­ter said the warn­ing was meant to pro­tect the in­tegri­ty of her ad­min­is­tra­tion, which re­cent­ly marked 100 days in of­fice.
