Callender: Tsoiafatt-Angus is no longer in PNM
Dr Denise Tsoiafatt-Angus -
A YEAR after winning the support of almost a quarter of PNM members to lead the Tobago Council, Dr Denise Tsoiafatt-Angus, a former councillor in the Tobago House of Assembly (THA), on Thursday found herself expelled from the party.
Last January, in the first round of voting she took 904 votes of almost 5,000 votes cast, while in the second round she and candidate Joel Jack (on 1,066 votes) gave crucial support to help Tracy Davidson-Celestine unseat former head Kelvin Charles by overturning an initial 1,513/1,447 vote in Charles favour to a final 3,150/2,042 win for Davidson-Celestine.
