PORTIA SIMPSON MILLER TODAY DEFENDED HER CONTROVERSIAL DECISION TO RE-APPOINT RICHARD AZAN

JAMAICA'S PRIME MINISTER PORTIA SIMPSON MILLER TODAY DEFENDED HER CONTROVERSIAL DECISION TO RE-APPOINT RICHARD AZAN AS A JUNIOR MINISTER BUT WOULD SAY LITTLE MORE ON THE MATTER THAN THAT HE DID NOTHING CRIMINALLY WRONG.
MR. AZAN'S RE-APPOINTMENT HAS ELICITED CRITICISM FROM CIVIL SOCIETY AS WELL AS THE OPPOSITION JAMAICA LABOUR PARTY, JLP.
THE JUNIOR MINISTER WAS SWORN IN LAST WEEK WITH NO COMMENT FROM THE PRIME MINISTER AT THE SWEARING IN CEREMONY AT KINGS HOUSE. 
JAMAICA HOUSE LATER SENT OUT A RELEASE SAYING THE PRIME MINISTER WAS HAPPY TO HAVE MR. AZAN RETURN TO DO THE PEOPLE'S WORK.
BUT TODAY OUR REPORTER WAS SHOVED AS HE TRIED TO GET ANSWERS FROM THE PRIME MINISTER AT A FUNCTION IN ROSE TOWN, ST. ANDREW.
THAT UN-EDITED ENCOUNTER IS OUR TOP STORY IN PRIME TIME NEWS. THE PRIME MINISTER WAS WILLINGLY TALKING TO OUR REPORTER VASHAN BROWN AT THE START OF THE INTERVIEW.
HE FIRST ASKED ABOUT THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE ROSE TOWN WATER AND SEWER PROJECT AND SHE WAS SPEAKING ABOUT ITS IMPORTANCE
