Prime Minister Patrick Manning is expected to address the nation tonight …
The topics…falling oil prices and how the Trinidad and Tobago economy is faring
This morning Opposition leader Basdeo Panday says he’s aggravated by the fact that it took the PNM administration such a long time to come to terms with the fact that the twin island state is not immune to the international crisis
And so the former Prime Minister believes Mr Manning’s address tonight will only be a show
Recently government warned of possible job cuts in the public sector…as it reconsidered its spending habits But Mr Panday contends government’s arrogance is the reasons citizens will continue to suffer
And Mr Panday believes Mr Manning…who he describes as deceitful… has proven himself unfit to run the country
