Corruption prosecutor to probe Holness conflict of interest allegation

Innocent until proven guilty. Watch all judges and lawyers run now. – @Alley Dier

I don’t know why we are even surprised by anything that is happening here, who is gonna reprimand him or even hold him accountable? When as soon as anything happen you say a PNP why you are acting up! As far anything goes here in Jamaica it’s just business as usual – persons are not entitled to their opinion any more else you will be label. – @Rhona Hetiradge-Westcarth

Please hurry up and do y’all investigations. I can’t wait to hear the findings. I see the haters and detractors are out in their numbers like scavengers looking for dead meat. Hurry up with it! – @Peter Anderson

This is what they always try to do to a great leader everywhere. Mr Holness get the most blame for everything in Jamaica, it’s never happen before to any other prime minister in history of Jamaica. – @Lukie Brown

And this will make the news as a smokescreen, and then days down the line, the findings will be that there are no conflicts of any interest. – @annesamommy

Anything to make Andrew look bad even when it’s nothing. But once his name is dragged in something and people can jump and say corruption. The PNP will stop at nothing because they know once Andrew is there they have a hard time winning. Anyway, never expect anything better from Integrity Commission, bury one and dig up one. – @lance_vassell

People will call it nepotism, but let’s be real, any one of us in a position of influence will use that influence to benefit friends and family. We only cry foul when we are the slighted party, but if we are beneficiaries we are OK. As long as the public got value for money, it’s neither here nor there with me. – @jackmack.1

Former US President Harry Truman once said, “Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician and I’ll show you a crook”. I leave it to my fellow Jamaicans to decide which of our politicians, who have never worked a day outside of politics, claims to have been born poor, yet today they are one of the richest persons in Jamaica. – Speak The Truth

All I can say is time come! – mama-ess

Big sigh!. So will he do the honourable thing and resign? – Vernal
