Minority Councillor Petal Daniel-Benoit is calling on Chief Secretary Farley Augustine to stand in defence of Tobago and put Tobago first.
Her comments comes as the Chief Secretary is awaiting full details from Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, on the installation of equipment at the ANR Robinson International Airport. More from Elizabeth Williams.
00:00If you also listen to the comments by the chief secretary and the prime minister, they are at variance.
00:09So we are calling on Mr. Chief Secretary to stand in defense of Tobago.
00:17We are calling on the chief secretary to have the same fire as he did in the past in relation to matters of disrespect and matters of this fifth schedule.
00:33Mrs. Danielle Benoit said the new posture by Chief Secretary Farley-Augustin under this new central government administration is telling.
00:42There was one time that the chief secretary told the prime minister to mind his business.
00:51The chief secretary was aggressive in the past in relation to matters relating in Tobago, where he thought that the central government disrespected Tobagonians.
01:02This is a case of serious disrespect to Tobagonians, and it is quite curious, the posture of the chief secretary.
01:14She is calling on the chief secretary to put Tobago first.
01:17Mr. Chief Secretary, we are asking you to put Tobago first.
01:22Come in defense of Tobago using the same energy that you did in the past.
01:29The current posture of the chief secretary is unacceptable.
