Tobago... impasse between Duke and Farley
This stemmed from a disagreement over funding for the Roxborough Folk Performers, led by former minister Vernella Alleyne-Toppin, who was in New York. Duke slammed the THA on funding and complained about what he called a lack of respect by Augustine.
The latter said $400,000 was given to the performing group but the group has denied receiving any money from the THA.
The issue also led to Duke removing Augustine and two others as deputy leaders of the Progressive Democratic Patriots (PDP), which he leads.
Its the latest issue between the THA jefesfollowing tensions on various issues since Apriland has erupted publicly now with this matter.Meanwhile, arrangements are being firmed up by senior PDP officials to have a meeting on the impasse between Augustine and Duke later this week. They are hoping to avert a motion of no-confidence, which either Duke (via the party) or Augustine (via THAs 15-member Assembly) might call against the other.
