We must not always fall for these statements. The Minister of Finance has every right to ask citizens to honour their tax obligations to their country. This new call by our PM is a smoke screen and red herring that was thrown at us to detract from some of the other major problems confronting the administration.

As you know, gifts to ministers and government officials/employees must be declared, Also gifts are taxable. We know that senators and ministers have indicated they know of direct gifts being given to the PM personally by no other than Hugo Chavez. Are you aware whether these gifts were declared. I know your good friend and SC Tony has declared that Merina Shillingford made a gift of land to the Minister of Finance. Were these gifts declared and the relevant taxes paid on them???
