Dr; Minnis let me help you out here, many Government employees have month and months of vacation when they leave their jobs, so they are really on Vacation. Why do you always believe some one is stealing something; Be care full, they say it takes one to know one, take your mind out of the gutter just once.. and show the long serving officer the respect he deserves.

Commodore Bowe is a good man he e'ehn steal no money from nobody. He has been a good steward on the Defence force, he didnt take any training "and run", he served 30+ years. He was not promoted because of "who he know", he is not affiliated with any political party. He was promoted because of hard work and exemplary service

Btw, how many of our Cabinet Minsters are elsewhere employed? (And were during the last administration)

Meanwhile everybody praising a criminal for promoting being dumb and handing out dollars earned through illegal methods

Please Comrade Doctor, doctor Minnis in da sweet name Jesus, exactly how many disbelieving PLP cabinet things do you thinks we can handle at any one time? Cuz we da people still need more time be logicalizing we heads around when having a friend or family member locked-up inside a police station's cell only might have created confusion and uncertainty for both the prisoner and their loved ones but not brought wedding bells right inside da jail's cell. When you can actually move the previously planned wedding ceremony, right inside the policeman's station - all sanctioned by a senior policeman's officer. We still trying make room absorb that "NO"
BAMSI fire insurance scandal developing over in Andros and in the DPM's office? Cuz Minister
V.Alfred done proclaimed how it was never his responsibility. Although rather strange sounding since, wasn't he always taking to the media with much pride in promoting BAMSI as he own project?

Dis black on black hate has to stop. I am happy for Bowe and wish him all the best!

This dumb ass really does not know how to pick his fights. Come on, really?

asiseeit I agree with you 100%

The question is: Did Bowe retire or resign from the civil service???????? Like Douglas Hanna, Marvin Dames or Quinn McCartney????? All we are hearing is he didnt renew his contract and he is on vacation. That is a valid question to raise ......................... ASSiseeitt

Fine, it may be valid but one would think, as leader of the opposition, the good Doctor would have bigger fish to fry. Take your pick, it is not like this government does not have a scandal or two brewing. That he chooses to focus on this makes me think he is trying to distract us from the real issues.

This is endemic in the civil service ................... at least 25% of police officers retire at 25 years and continue working and double dipping. Many others retire and are rehired as consultants .............. others just hang on after 30-40 years, dont really work, accumulate pension and vacation and just clog up the system .............. this is a BIG problem ............. ASSiseeitt

HUBERT MINNIS SHOULD REALLY EXPOSE THE INEFFICIENT CIVIL SERVICE PROBLEM

Valid once again yet still something that is minor compared to what the current government is dealing with. That we have a culture of corruption in the Bahamas is obvious to all but the blind and deaf. I am of the opinion that the leader of the opposition should choose his battles more wisely. I am no fan of the civil service but one would think he would have bigger fish to fry. Sorry i dared to question your dear leader.

This is a hard working man. He was not going to cocktail parties and biding his time. He gave clear intentions that he did not intend to renew his contract and still gave his best. **They** told him to go home. He could have continued in his job and been paid for his well earned vacation at the end of his service. It seems reasonable if you know you're not going to be employed in 3 months to start sending out resumes...just saying

Minnis clearly suffers from a severe form of ADHD.....he has great difficulty identifying an important subject and even greater difficulty staying on an important subject once he has struggled to identify it. The FNM political apparatus must know by now that most Bahamian voters will either not vote at all in the next general election or will cast their vote for the DNA. Most FNM supporters now cannot stomach the fact that Minnis still remains as Opposition Leader. And no one in their right mind will vote for the FNM if it means Minnis will stand a chance of becoming PM. The door has never been more open to the formation of a new political party to replace the FNM and give the DNA a run for its money in the next general election.

Where oh where is Loretta Butler-Turner??
