Attorney Wayne Benjamin Marsh Sets the Record Straight
On 17th December 2024, I appeared on Twin Island Media for an interview which was streamed live via Facebook.
During that interview, Dr. Cleon Athill wrote several unfortunate comments about me on Facebook.
Let it be known as follows:
1. After her selection and confirmation as the UPP’s candidate in St. Paul’s, there were several campaign strategy meetings held by the St. Paul’s UPP Branch of which Dr. Athill and I were a part.
2. At no point did I say that I advised Dr. Athill.
3. I maintain that I liked her approach of not giving bribes. HOWEVER, I TOOK A STRONG OBJECTION ON HOW SHE CONVEYED AND SOLD THIS MESSAGE.
4. At no point did I ever say or suggest that I advised or had discussions with Dr. Athill about anyone asking her for $2000. She was not a part of the UPP at the time when the request was made.
5. At no point did I ever suggest she left UPP because I had returned to Antigua and had interest in running.
I SAID THE EXACT OPPOSITE I encourage all to listen to the full interview below.
