“The rumour is nothing but pure mischief by agents of destabilisation and is totally untrue. Whist we acknowledge the patriotism of the House entertaining the Motion, we think it was totally unnecessary since the Speaker already had a private audience with the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development a few days ago when this issue came up and the Minister assured Mr. Speaker that there was NO IOTA of truth in the rumour.
“The Minister further put a call to the Rector of the school who re-assured Mr. Speaker that it was an unfounded rumour and purely a mischief. So, why the motion?”
It therefore urged the public to disregard any such rumour stating that it amounts to grandstanding by anyone still trying to make political gains out of nothing.
