Government Senator Abka Fitz-Henley says in light of what media reports have indicated is a Police anti-corruption investigation into operations at the KSAMC, its Chairman Mayor Andrew Swaby should tell Jamaica what he meant by he tried to ‘grill-up’ and ‘gell-up di ting’ to ensure he is not exposed.
This when he was heard appearing to discuss use of resources on the PNP political hustings.
Audio has gone viral on social media where Swaby is heard expressing his determination to ensure the Opposition PNP wins Central Kingston.
Andrew Swaby, Kingston Mayor.
Swaby has denied any wrongdoing by the KSAMC under his leadership.
But the PNP/KSAMC scandal is reportedly being probed by the Major Organised Crime And Anti-Corruption Agency, MOCA,.
The probe took a turn recently with a statement given to MOCA by former PNP candidate Lawrence Rowe which alleged that taxpayers money allocated to the KSAMC is being used to fund PNP candidates.
Senator Fitz-Henley says Mayor Swaby has several questions to answer.

Senator Fitz-Henley says Swaby should clear the air concerning the use of public resources by the KSAMC and not attempt to deflect by making public demands of media houses and threatening strong action.
The Government Senator says it is unfortunate that the KSAMC has been plunged into a corruption scandal since Mayor Swaby took over the reins and Swaby should do the honourable thing and resign.
