Well,well!! seems like the PM was close to the mark…borrowing, or shall I say steeling one for personal use possible. But, 27. How can honest hard working Grenadians not be aggrieved by this situation. (not surprise this casts a huge shadow over the IT department. How were these items not missed?).
This individual is lucky we are in Grenada. In the Middle East, his hand would have gone missing.
