UNC MP for Oropouche East Dr Roodal Moonilal on Sunday doubled down on a statement made by the party in response to a travel advisory issued by the United States which advised against travelling to Trinidad and Tobago amid crime and covid19 concerns.
Moonilal, at a news briefing at the Office of the Leader of the Opposition in Port of Spain, said the areas listed in their statement were well known as “hotspots” and were in PNM strongholds.
“The US over the years have identified certain areas in this country that they advise their citizens, employees and workers not to go. And those areas are areas that have been represented for donkey years by the People’s National Movement.
