Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 69486, member: 636"] Reggae artist Buju Banton has countered statements from Member of Parliament Daryl Vaz, who previously dismissed his claims about stolen relief supplies. Banton maintains that items, including stoves and Starlink devices, were taken from a shipment at Norman Manley International Airport intended for western Jamaica. He disputed the official account that the goods moved directly from the aircraft to waiting trucks. Banton stated his team waited for hours during the clearance process and discovered broken seals upon finally receiving the cargo. He emphasized that the non-partisan relief effort, supported by donors including Florida Commissioners, was meant to aid citizens. Banton described the response to his allegations as an attempt to shame those reporting problems, calling for greater transparency in the handling of aid. He characterized the situation as indicative of a broken system. [/QUOTE]
