Is Audit Scrutiny Really Political Propaganda?

Darrell Bradley

According to Bradley, it’s beyond him how anybody could question the record of the Council, when he maintains that they have been nothing but transparent. He got quite hot under the collar at what he says is blatant political propaganda just two weeks before the municipal elections.

Darrell Bradley, Belize City Mayor

“Every single point…every single point where we have run City Council…at every occasion we make periodic reports. I remember previously that I have given the media a detailed listing of all the streets that we have done, the contractors, the cost, every time when we have a periodic report…six months, one year, one and a half years, two years, two and a half years, now all of a sudden two weeks before an election Ms. Schakron reads an audit report, says she doesn’t know about numbers and then this becomes a big issue. Please, I am the Mayor. I am running a campaign. I am also running a city. Do not waste my time for things which are not issues. I think there are a lot of other issues that we can be dealing with which the residents of Belize City really care about and we have been running this place in a very transparent way so I don’t understand that.”
