Guyana Puke Times up to no good again.
ASJ banna you gotta stop reading trash.
I see absolutely nothing wrong with what was said here.
"The Minister, who has responsibility for natural resources and the environment, went on to say in the recording that a lot of countries have had companies making a kind of an up-front payment.
Trotman in his denial statement on Tuesday said he was approached by a Journalist, who questioned whether the Government would consider asking the oil company for funds ahead of production and, if it was afforded the opportunity to receive early payments, which area of development would the funds be channelled into.
“It was to this hypothetical question that he responded that Government would focus on infrastructural development if given the resources. I also said that if those matters were to be raised it would have to be by our President when he meets ExxonMobil’s President in January. I distinctly remember saying that I had no knowledge of Government seeking any such money upfront,” Trotman said in the statement.
However, the statement added while Government has not received any offers to date, it will consider all possibilities which are in the best interest of the country."

I'm too intelligent to be reading trash. I did read the above article to see what the hell those bimbos are complaining about and there's nothing in it worth complaining.
Guyana Times should do the right thing and close down.

Guyana times lied.
Was it not trottman who said that the coalition was not contemplating large salary increases for ministers? He lied then. He is lying now. Or was he flying a test balloon?

Guyana times is NOT a newspaper. It is a PPP propaganda piece, replacing the Chronicle. Use SN and KN, which are more objective as they criticized the PPP, and have already had their say against APNU/AFC.

You're misrepresenting what Trotman said at that time. He admitted that they were reviewing the salaries of ministers but he said that the increase would not be immediate. This was in August and the increase came about in October. You can get at him for saying that the raise would not be immediate but he did say all along that they were reviewing ministers' salaries. At the same time, immediate can mean right now, next week, next two months. It's subject to interpretation and the context that you want to see it in.

Toilet paper. Only black people support SN.
Listen to Trotman. So glad we can upload videos now to GNI. Let him deny all he want. Here is the truth and nothing but the truth!!!!

It is obvious that he is lying when he denied that he did not tell the reporter about asking for an advance.
Are, you are an intelligent person so don't spin it. He was lying.
Looks like Jagdeo is continuing to have an influence even thought he is out of office. He calls them out and they react in the affirmative. I wonder who really in charge?
There is a certain pattern developing with the coalition. They make statements and promises and when they are called out on it they say they never said that. They even write newspaper articles to deny what they said.
They told lies to get elected. And now they are telling lies to run the government.
