PM says Warner cannot save Opposition or swing any votes in LGE

Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley says former UNC chairman Jack Warner cannot save the United National Congress.

Speaking during a TV6 interview on Thursday morning, the PM also pointed to the new coalition with Opposition Leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar and the National Transformation Alliance (NTA), saying it will send Trinidad and Tobago over the precipice that Warner claims they want to save it from.

Rowley reminded that back in 2010, he warned the country that Warner would be a national embarrassment because of the allegations of corruption against him as FIFA vice president.
Since then, he said Warner now has the title of “international crook” over his head.

He said the Centre of Excellence where the UNC/NTA meeting was held has been regarded as “a monument of shame” with respect to the matters still hanging over Warner’s head.

Rowley said Warner cannot cause any swing in votes in any party of the country, including the East-West corridor, to threaten the PNM in the elections.
