Opposition Leader: Armour must go
Attorney General Reginald Armour has no moral authority to speak on any issue. Instead of deflections and distractions, Armour should do the right thing and resign for lying on an affidavit about his involvement as a defense attorney in the Piarco Airport matter that is currently being litigated in the US Courts.
Armour’s arrogance was on full display during his press conference on Wednesday 22nd June, as he outright refused to answer questions regarding his misleading statements made to the Miami Court. This refusal to account highlights his contempt for the people of this country. The AG lives in a fool’s paradise if he believes that it is business as usual with all these questions hanging over his head.
The fact remains that AG Armour has brought his office and our country into disrepute. He is unsuited and unqualified for the office he holds.
The Attorney General said he came to speak only about the Procurement Legislation, but the only thing the country wants him to procure is his resignation letter.
