The Minority had alleged at a press conference last week that the $2.2 billion was shrouded in secrecy, calling for a parliamentary probe.
They further threatened to petition CHRAJ for investigations, citing a conflict of interest in the issuance of the bond.
Speaking on Citi FM’s “The Big Issue” Satuday, he said: “The conflict of interest issue occurs all over and has occurred all over this landscape that we have today. The question we have to ask is, is the NDC qualified to come now and criticize what is going on, when previously, there have been instances in which they themselves have been involved and in which they have never discussed.”
