The rainy season is here and local government representatives of the Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress are worried.

At a news conference yesterday opposition corporations warned of disaster if gov­ern­ment does not disburse much needed funding.

The representatives noted that the situation is worsening as the rainy season is now in effect.

Alderman at the Tunanpuna/Piarco Regional Corporation, Kevan Gibbs wants government too act fast.

May­or of Ch­agua­nas, Gopaul Bood­han described the situation as a crisis.

He believes the UNC led cor­po­ra­tions are be­ing dis­re­spect­ed by the govern­ment.

And his col­league, chair­man of the Cou­va/Tabaquite/Tal­paro Re­gion­al Cor­po­ra­tion, Hen­ry Awong, said his 178,000 Burgesses are anxious about the on­set of the rainy sea­son.

Back in September, the same group ac­cused the Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Movement gov­ern­ment of de­lib­er­ate­ly starv­ing UNC-led cor­po­ra­tions of fund­ing.
