Wheatley Under Fire Over Corruption Allegations
Description
The Peoples National Party is demanding the removal of Minister Dr. Andrew Wheatley from cabinet after the Integrity Commission recommended charges of corruption and false declarations tied to his alleged $164 million in unexplained assets. The PNP plans to mobilize civil society and religious groups to pressure the government, warning that allowing a minister facing such serious allegations to remain in power damages Jamaica’s reputation and deters investment. While legally he cannot be forced to resign, the party argues voters may demand his ouster and calls for constitutional recall provisions to empower citizens. The Prime Minister is weighing his next move as the PNP vows to keep the pressure on until justice is served.
