Teixeira debunks ‘dictatorship’ claims

“ARE we perfect as a Government? No. Have we made all the right decisions? No. But are we dictatorial? No, we are not. And are we a dictatorship? No, we are not.”

These were the sentiments of Presidential Advisor on Governance, Gail Teixeira, during a recent edition of the television programme “Political Scope” aired on the National Communications Network (NCN), where she rejected criticism from Opposition quarters.

Teixeira questioned the grounds for these allegations. “Where are the violations?”
