In­no­v­a­tive De­mo­c­ra­t­ic Al­liance po­lit­i­cal leader Denise Tsoiafatt-An­gus has called on To­bag­o­ni­ans not to let the al­leged sec­ond “au­dio gate” in­volv­ing Chief Sec­re­tary Far­ley Au­gus­tine and Op­po­si­tion Leader Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar fade away and die a nat­ur­al death—es­pe­cial­ly since Au­gus­tine has not clear­ly de­nied that the meet­ing and con­ver­sa­tion ever took place.

Tsoiafatt-An­gus, com­ment­ing on the mat­ter, told Guardian Me­dia that con­tro­ver­sies of leaked record­ings now seem to de­fine the Far­ley-led TPP ad­min­is­tra­tion, point­ing out that the first au­dio leak still re­mains un­re­solved and now a sec­ond record­ing has sur­faced.

Tsoiafatt-An­gus made it clear that while the TPP has the right to align with a na­tion­al par­ty, To­bag­o­ni­ans de­serve hon­esty.

She said, “If this last record­ing has been ver­i­fied by ex­perts as au­then­tic and not AI gen­er­at­ed, then the IDA has se­ri­ous con­cerns about the shame­ful ap­proach to gov­er­nance. One that ap­pears to fool the pub­lic in­to giv­ing their votes on­ly for those votes to be treat­ed in se­cret deals be­hind closed doors.”

She said if this lat­est record­ing is con­firmed, To­ba­go has every right to be deeply con­cerned.
