Central Westmoreland MP, the PNP’s Dwayne Vaz, says the Local Government Minister misled Jamaicans when he accused him of not taking action amid delays in the delivery of modular housing units in his constituency.

Vaz made the comment while responding to host, George Davis, on Cliff Hughes Online on Thursday.

In the House of Representatives last week, Minister Desmond McKenzie chided MP Vaz, as well as the PNP-controlled Westmoreland Municipal Corporation, for a lack of progress in the delivery of the units.

According to the Minister, the Corporation refused to submit the documents to commence the work on the project.

But MP Vaz says his team has been working hand-in-hand with contractors to deliver the units.
