Security forces have been given appropriate instruction to ensure the country is not destabilized in the remaining days to next Monday's general election.

That’s according to Prime Minister Patrick Manning

Speaking at a recent public meeting Manning said in the coming days he expects "the opposition forces to lie, steal, fabricate or do anything to stop the PNM".

And He warned: "They are going to resort to filthy tricks."

He also knocked polls conducted by Trinidadians on the outcome of the election.

In spite of what he called all the fabrication and pollstering, Manning said he was convinced that the PNM will win the election.
