The PM should not fire Azan and he should not resign !

There has been widespread calls for Mr Azan to resign and or fired by the Prime Minister, Portia Simpson Miller, but are those calls justified or simply politically motivated.

The PM should not fire Mr Azan nor should he resign, what did he do wrong?
He saw a need and did what was necessary to fill that need , what is inherently wrong with that. Politicians are elected to lead and lead they must.

Vendors were out on the streets and were causing a traffic problem.  Mr Azan as Junior Minister in the Transport and Works Ministry accepted an unsolicited proposal from a contractor to build shops for these vendors on the property of the Parish Council.

In exchange for this, (given the the PC was broke and could not afford to pay the contractor), it was agreed that rent would have been collected from the shops and paid over to the contractor over time to compensate him for his investment. This appears to be perfectly in order.

No need for the Contractor General to be involved, it was an unsolicited offer and ” this government will not accept impotence as an option. This administration 
refuses to ‘allow the OCG to be a stumbling block in the engagement of private entities as the state moves to take advantage of investment opportunities”

There you have it ” monkey see, monkey do”.

Dr Davis , which is Mr Azan ‘s boss refuses to accept the notion that private bodies should not be engaged to do  and provide what the government cannot afford to do, simply because a particular process is not followed.

So Mr Azan is just doing what he sees has been done before knowing fully well that after the hot air has been blown, its business as usual.

Run wid it PNP don’t let the detractors stop you, is progress dem a try stop.

Full speed ahead , the law is NOT a shackle.

Commonsense does not necessarily agrees with the view expressed above : )

How a bout a little comedy folks, in terms tough times laughter is indeed good medicine.

Fun and joke aside, I yearn for good governance is this country

I yearn for the days when wrong will be seen for what it is and not shaded by any particular hue and dealt with as such.

Values in Jamaica have been eroding over a long time and appears to only exist in language and not otherwise ie action .

Jamaican students are struggling to deal with the difference between what’s right and what’s wrong in the country. They are quick to justify doing wrong by pointing out ” weh u a pick pon mi fah a nuh me along a dweet it, dem over deh so a do e to, so why only mi alone u a harass, go harass dem deh too nuh”.

The adults will do the  same ” JPS  a wicked, how dem expect people fi pay dem deh lite bill, we nah wuk, we have pickney fi go school, dem clothes haffi iron, we food ago spoil inna d fridge. A nuh we alone a bridge lite, nuff big man a bridge lite to but dem nah do dem nuttin, a we along dem have strentgh fah. We want justice, we want lite, a wah dem tek we fah, we nuh animal eno, we a people to, justice we want. De man fi just low d ting cuz a Jamaica dis and lite caan stop bridge”.

For those who struggle to read that, you need to grab your patios dictionary.  🙂
