Prime Minister Andrew Holness has dismissed criticisms he acted slowly in relation to the various scandals surrounding his former science, technology and energy minister, Dr. Andrew Wheatley.
Mr. Holness on Tuesday met with various interest groups representing the private sector and the Church to address their concerns about the corruption allegations swirling around the entities for which Dr. Wheatley had responsibility.
He argued that while people might have the perception that he was slow in acting, the government has to be cautious due to the spread of possible “fake news” and “alternative facts”.
Mr. Holness suggested there can be no question that his administration has been accountable during the process of investigation and discovery into various scandals involving entities in the energy ministry.
“We have been satisfied, we have gone to Parliament, we have reported and we have acted that there is no cover up, there is no running away from, and that people who are responsible are held to account,” he asserted.
Dr. Wheatley resigned from the Cabinet on Monday after weeks of calls for him to do so.

Phillip did rob some money. He should be the last one pointing fingers at this point in time. Why the opposition trying to look good in everybody’s eyes when they were a corrupt entity? So all of a sudden the opposition have a plaster for every wound? Weren’t they in power for 18+ years. So before he goes about acting like he is doing Jamaica a favour, what happen to all those years sir. Corruption is corruption and it is both sides, so why acting like your hands are clean. Is it a case if thief never love to see thief with long bag? Is it a case where the PNP is trying to look good in our eyes when it is plain to see that none of you is better? Do you need a medal for your great works Mr Paulwell? When you stole all those money from netserv, those millions of dollars, did the then Prime Minister asked you to resign? No!! Jamaica is neither PNP or JLP country!! All of y’all are thieves! Sick of y’all!
