Commissioner of Police Major General Antony Anderson today confirmed that sacked education minister Ruel Reid is the subject of a criminal investigation.

However, Anderson declined to provide details.

"Yes, there is an ongoing investigation. At this time, I can't give you an update on that," he said during his first press conference since taking over as police commissioner a year ago.

Pressed as to why he could not provide an update on the investigation, Anderson said "because it ongoing."

"It's a financial investigation and one that is quite complex investigations," he told journalists.

Anderson said the probed involves several police formations, including the Counter Terrorism and Organised Crime Division and the Constabulary Financial Unit.

I know an African guy, Ghanaian I believe, who used to joke about people living like a Minister of Government.

This one is worse because he was the Principal of a prestigious college (on secondment).
What makes it worse is this is the Ministry of Education and education has long been an escape route from poverty for children of the poor.
