Agriculture Ministry dismisses claim that St. Elizabeth farmers have not received sufficient post hurricane aid

State Minister for Agriculture, Franklin Witter is rubbishing a claim by Opposition Spokesman Dr. Dayton Campbell, that farmers in St. Elizabeth have not received sufficient Hurricane Beryl relief aid.

Dr. Campbell made the assertion while speaking at a political meeting in South East St. Elizabeth, on Sunday.

In a statement yesterday, Mr. Witter described Dr. Campbell’s remarks as desperate, misguided, and misleading utterances.

He said since Hurricane Beryl’s passage, over 3300 farmers in St. Elizabeth have received assistance.
