Re: Res­ig­na­tion from the role of Deputy Chief Sec­re­tary.

Dear Chief Sec­re­tary,

I am writ­ing to for­mal­ize my res­ig­na­tion with im­me­di­ate ef­fect as Deputy Chief Sec­re­tary of the To­ba­go House of As­sem­bly. I wi11 not ac­cept your in­vi­ta­tion to fight for such or any po­si­tion. I wish to re­mind you I gave you the au­thor­i­ty to be­come Chief Sec­re­tary and now I re­move my­self to en­sure that the voice of the PDP will be heard.

As you are aware Democ­ra­cy and Trans­paren­cy have al­ways been part of my po­lit­i­cal phi­los­o­phy. I have seen first-hand that you chose to fight against me rather than fight for our peo­ple. I have lost all con­fi­dence in you.

Kind­ly ac­cept my res­ig­na­tion from post of Deputy Chief Sec­re­tary.

Wat­son Solomon Duke

As­sem­bly­man for Rox­bor­ough/Ar­gyle
