Was DHS Michael Pitts Booted Out of His Office Before Retirement Deadline?

Director of Health Services Doctor Michael Pitts is retiring from his post as third in command of the Ministry of Health.  His departure however, is not without controversy, as News Five understands that Pitts’ belongings, including files, documents and other personal effects were all boxed up and removed from his assigned office space well before his final day on the job.  We reached out to Pitts earlier today to find out what actually happened and while choosing not to comment on being ejected from his seat, he did acknowledge that his retirement brings to an end an extensive career in the health sector.  Succeeding Pitts as DHS is Dr. Ramon Figueroa, Director of Policy Analysis and Planning Unit in the Ministry of Health.  It has long been rumored that Pitts and C.E.O., Peter Allen, did not quite get along at the Ministry of Health.

    How is Peter Allen still CEO? Hasn’t he demonstrated enough of his incompetence?

    He is still CEO because he is the defacto Min Of Health. Pablo can recommend changing of light bulbs only!!!

    It is not that Dr. Pitts and CEO Allen did not get along, but rather that Peter Allen is a VICIOUS, VINDICTIVE no-colonialist who has no respect for the professionals in this country. Go do your research media house..follow the trend and find out how many people in the Ministry of Health have been affected by Peter Allen. He especially targets women by transferring them and blocking them from doing their work professionally. Ask the Public Service Ministry how many violations are committed by Peter Allen.That man will have to answer to God for the many families he has broken. The saddest part is that the Prime Minister and his Wife are personal friends of this man and they are therefore choosing him over our own people. The Special Envoy for women and children should be condemning the actions of Peter Allen. Pablo Marin is so dumb that he is mesmerized by the British Accent and thinks that everything this man does is magic… Should employees of the Ministry of Health celebrate INDEPENDENCE DAY??
