Health Minister Defends Use of Green Building

St. Paul’s Empowerment Center

Health Minister Sir Molwyn Joseph has dismissed claims that St. Paul MP E.P. Chet Greene financially benefits from the decision to relocate services from the temporarily closed Liberta Clinic to the St. Paul Empowerment Center, a facility managed by Green.

Speaking at a press conference on Friday, Joseph clarified that the arrangement was authorized by Permanent Secretary Ina Dalso-Henry, emphasizing that no financial compensation was involved.

“There was no solicitation on the part of the Parliamentary Representative,” Joseph stated. “He saw it as his duty to support the nurses and the delivery of essential health services in the community.” The minister acknowledged public concerns over the use of the facility but maintained that the decision was made in the best interest of ensuring continued access to vital health services.

The St. Paul Empowerment Center currently provides HPV screenings and vaccinations, with the Health Ministry reaffirming its commitment to eradicating cervical cancer in Antigua and Barbuda by 2030. Joseph highlighted the government’s focus on improving healthcare access during a visit to the center.

The Liberta Clinic, along with other healthcare facilities, is undergoing major renovations to enhance its capacity, signaling ongoing government efforts to strengthen healthcare infrastructure across the nation.

  1. Of course Chet Greene is “allegedly” benefitting financially, if not why on earth would Molwyn Joseph mention it?

    Many Antiguans didn’t even know about this possible reap rewarding monetary gain in the first instance.

    Why plant another political “self-enriched” seed in our minds? If the rumours are true, the greedy and gravalicious politicians here need to be rooted out immediately!!!

    THE SMELL OF UNTOWARD FINANCIAL BEHAVIOUR IS GETTING WORSE DAY BY DAY …

  2. This is the same bad minded minister of health that allowed two houses to rotten ,a old people home like a drug house, and a library to be demolished . He is so incompetent. No wonder our health care system is in chaos.

  3. I really don’t think that Molwyn is aware of what he said. The guy is getting more senile by the day but his desire for more is steering him.

  4. CHET,THANK YOU FOR GIVING OF YOUR BUILDING TO THE ADMINISTRATION TO BE USED FOR FREEEEEEE.IF YOU THE PEOPLE BELIEVED THAT IS SO.LOOK OUT FOR SNOW ON (MOUNT OBAMA) ALSO KNOWN AS BOGGY PEAK,THIS WINTER SEASON.LOL

  5. Damn fools: Why wait until the damn structures are rotting and crumbling to close them for repairs. All Saints closed, Liberta closed and remember how long Cobbs Cross is closed !!Now to have a 50’X45′ structure taking over two years to complete is the hight of incompetence-for even the lamest of layman to discern. “Malo” is an empty-handed vessel full of smooth rhetorical nothingness. A dapper stuffed button suited charlatan crap bagger. Yes!

  6. As long as we argue and fight amongst ourselves nothing good for our communities can emerge. I suppose we live in a democracy and there will always be critiques about what is being done.

  7. Molwyn nuh even know what day it is much less wha gwarn in ABLP. TIME FAH TIE HE AH PASSAH!!! Robin realized and slipped out quietly. Molwyn please follow suit and gee smaddy wan chance jack!

  8. Amen, well said…Molly bwoy, you a MALFUNCTION by the days ahead…go home and and watch cartoon with your grands..learn something from bugs bunny 🐰
