BLAME MINISTER OF FINANCE Chris Sinckler and Prime Minister Freundel Stuart for the internal blow-up between the board and the Governor of the Central Bank of Barbados, says economist Ryan Straughn.

Yesterday’s SUNDAY SUN disclosed that members of the board were so upset with Dr DeLisle Worrell’s “unyielding” management style, that they met with Sinckler last Friday and asked for him to be removed as Governor.

Straughn, the Barbados Labour Party’s (BLP) Christ Church East Central candidate, said last night it should come as no surprise since, according to him, those two had been rubber-stamping Worrell’s actions for the past three years.

“This is entirely of their making. The only reasonable thing to do is take responsibility for it and deal with it,” Straughn said.
