Prime Minister Harris Responds to Spurious Allegations of Nepotism – Key Takeaways

Prime Minister Harris gave an impassioned response to the spurious allegations of nepotism during his press conference on Tuesday, April 9th, 2019.  “Where is the evidence?” the Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis asked before encouraging investigative reporters to find the evidence and put it forward to the public.

  • Where is the evidence?  Investigative reporters’ focus should be on finding the evidence then putting it forward to the public, the Prime Minister urged.
  • Everyone of his family members currently working in Government or for a government-owned entity was hired and promoted by the administration before his Team Unity administration came into office.  “Not a single one of them was hired into the service by me,” Prime Minister Harris said.
  • They are extremely well qualified and were hired and promoted on their own merit.  “They’ve been there long before I became Prime Minister,” Prime Minister Harris said, adding, “They happen to be bright.  You can’t fault them…they went [abroad], they took in their education, and they came back and wanted to make a contribution – and they had their papers  [academic qualifications] to show.”
