Opposition Spokesman on Transport and Works, Mike Henry, is raising concern about road repairs which coincide with the visit of US President Barack Obama.
Mr. Obama is due in the island on April 9.
Ahead of the visit, the National Works Agency has commenced a special work programme in Kingston and St. Andrew repaving or patching roads.
Mr. Henry says it’s a futile attempt to mask the issues affecting the country in time for the President’s visit.
