– did not address calls for public disclosure, value of investment; says profits being reinvested
(Demerara Waves) – Maintaining that he did not leverage his position as a politician, President Irfaan Ali on Thursday said Opposition Leader Azruddin Mohamed had long knew about his farm at Long Creek off the Linden-Soesdyke Highway.
“My farm is not a discovery. It is public information. Including the discoverer himself, he, himself, knows about the existence of my farm,” Dr Ali said on a Facebook live broadcast.
Reacting, Mr Mohamed maintained to Demerara Waves Online News that President Ali’s “luxury estate ranch is news to all Guyanese and certainly news to me.”
He said that he was now being made aware that while Dr Ali was housing minister that he acquired about 20 acres of land.
