00:00 So we are putting pressure on the Prime Minister, we are putting pressure on the Minister of
00:07 Public Utilities to investigate who muzzled Lisa Agard from reporting directly to the
00:12 Minister of Public Utilities, who muzzled the former CEO to letting the public know
00:17 the truth about what happened in the cyber attack. The questions that nobody seemed to
00:21 be asking.
00:22 With TSTT's former Chief Executive Officer and former Chief Financial Officer both speaking
00:28 out against alleged impropriety at the utility following their dismissals, the Communication
00:34 Workers Union is saying "I told you so" and its General Secretary says not only did they
00:40 tell, but they also provided evidence to substantiate their claims.
00:45 Only when they were ousted out of office, you are hearing all about this corruption,
00:48 you are hearing all about deals, you are hearing all about wanton wastage and we have been
00:51 talking about that for time immemorial.
00:54 So it means then that the problem or problems are still within the organisation, you are
00:58 not able to identify and do what?
01:01 I would answer you by saying we gave the Minister of Finance and Co-operation, Sol, the Honourable
01:08 Colm Imbo, I believe it was a 7 to 10 page document identifying wanton wastage and alleged
01:15 corruption. We did that February 15, 2022. He promised in three weeks time he would give
01:21 a report on that audit. So we are aware of some of the corruption and that is why I keep
01:25 saying and I keep hinting, if he did what he was supposed to do and furnish the union
01:31 three weeks after February 15, 2022, we would not be in this position because I am certain
01:37 having revealed the corruption that he must have found, three quarters of them would not
01:41 be sitting upstairs.
01:43 So that is why I am saying I am resting 99.9% of the blame at the feet of the Minister of
01:51 Finance and Co-operation, Sol.
01:53 The union further alleges that the public is still being misled about the cyber attack.
01:59 I have a copy of the checkpoint report and I wish to publicly state and contradict the
02:05 utterances whereby the administrator, her name has been bandied about in the public
02:10 domain and I want to call upon those who are placing the individual, him or her, name in
02:15 the public domain. It is not true. And I am calling on those who have indicated that she
02:20 is responsible for the cyber breach. As the hack came to her admin, I want persons to
02:25 prove where is it, in which report, is it the checkpoint report that clearly stated
02:31 he or she was locked out for six to nine years. We have a lot of information.
02:35 Calling the entire entity a rudderless ship, the union lamented that three of the execs
02:41 are currently in Barcelona for a conference while workers are begging for scraps.
02:47 All the company have to tell us, I could give you a bowl of soup as an appreciation, not
02:53 meat in the soup, corn soup, right? After they have allegedly spent $8 million in carnival,
03:00 what is the return? But these are the workers who built the company, the persons who are
03:04 building the company, and you are telling us zero, zero, zero, while you are in Barcelona
03:09 and you all are driving all different kind of vehicles, you paid somebody in PR $3 million
03:15 to leave, poorly positioned, redundant, and you brought Kamal George here and I am sure
03:19 you are making more than $40,000 to do what?
03:22 The CWU is promising to keep up protest action and says in the coming days it will expose
03:29 one particular exec. Renassa Kutting, TV6 News.
