He should ah keep he skunt quiet.

He WAS the Chairman of the PSC,if he wanted to make changes he could have gotten it done. It would have taken time and patience, if was really that big a problem he was in a position to do something about.

By making an inflammatory statement like that, fact or not was not merited, it was made with the only purpose of inciting a response. Well he got a response, didn't work in his favour.

they needed to make an example out of him although i suspect it was more politically motivated than anything.
Allyuh have short term memory in here. The man was the chairman of the PSC yet he disobeyed an order from two police officers on duty and then look to get them in trouble. Then this white dude come and say that case closed. He is a loose canon!!

I'll withhold comment on whether he should have been fired for his statements...but like everybody forget about what he did while driving in Port of Spain late last year.

He shoulda been fired since then, IMO.

Poor poor move by the prez. Nizam will have a clear case in court. Damn man spoke the truth. Prez fired him based on incompetence? Lol. Sounds like they were grasping for a reason

they'll avoid that argument like the plague, they prefer to argue using statistics

If all of our protective services were to honestly promote based on merit and intelligence then we would have almost no one in authoritative positions.

so all the current members of the executive have fake degrees then? Well considering that was the criteria to head the SSA then they would be most adept for the posts

I cannot comment on the criteria used in other Public Services but promotion in the Police Service was not based on meritocracy. It was done in this order :-
> Family
> Friend
> Fcuk thing
> Race (if it serves their purpose)

Anyone who thinks that the promotion process in the police was above board and fair has their eyes clouded.

The fact is that what Nizam wanted to do was what was propagated be the previous administration. Within the last 4-5 years the PNM administration had made changes so that the criteria for promotion is to more transparent and process based on performance, it had teething issues and minor logistical problems but was a lot more transparent and fair to officers, what Nizam was advocating was a step back.

Everyone fails to realise, there are 2 issues here

1. Nizam's statement.

2. A disparity in the Police Service that is as a result of previous administrative decisions.

They are two clear and separate issues and should not be discussed at the same time.

Aren't promotions in the police sector transparent with an external auditor present?

based on the current statutes the process should be transparent and external element present to ensure the process is not flawed, however as we all know in the protective services this is always not the case as some prefer to cut corners to fast track the process

Now imagine the nerve of this man, hes now seeking legal options,

You publically issue a racial statement while holding a senior position in public office and you expected what to happen exactly????

Postby **AllTrac** » April 6th, 2011, 8:05 am

i still want to know how is his statement racial?

SUPAstarr · Postby **SUPAstarr** » April 6th, 2011, 8:36 am

I still think his statement pointed out facts, he made a statement about racial composition facts included, is only when he went on to talk about fixin it with the help of parliament he got in trouble, made it seem that is personal agenda is to bring equity

I said before it is ok to point out by Manning that too many indos in UWI, too many Indo doctors and pertrosingh. It is not ok to speak against the trini Afro .Trinis dont want to deal with the facts and they dont to fix the already failed police force .They prefer the old way of doing things.
