For the past several weeks I have been inundated by complaints from the Carmichael community that convicted drug dealer Carlos Lamm and other disreputable persons have been canvassing in the Carmichael Constituency with The Hon. Keith Bell, Minister of State for National Security. Constituents complain that Mr. Lamm has been visiting their homes to introduce the Minister.
This actions of Minister Bell in canvassing with a convicted drug dealer and other persons of questionable character is a grave disservice to the law abiding members of the Carmichael community. It is also a betrayal of his sacred Oath of office to the Bahamian people.
How can citizens trust the Minister to protect them from the criminal element when he surrounds himself with persons who personify that element? In these days of ever rising crime, how can the Minister consort with persons of such ill repute?
The Minister’s actions confirm our worst fears about his government’s close relationship with the criminal element in our society.
Members of the Carmichael community are reminded to be careful not to open their doors to undesirables, who may be staking their homes out for their own purposes.
The Minister of State is warned to be careful of the message that he sends to our vulnerable children when his canvassing team consists of convicted law breakers and undesirables.
