This is just hypocrisy at its best, the picture says it all, his lawyer will have him out before long...........the police have a problem putting together a case that will stick, Mrr Ogilvie was signing official contracts with minister henry not so long ago, when did he suddenly become wanted or is it a case of guilty by association?
5/31/2010
Not only do we give them multi-million dollar contracts to fix the tunnels, I mean gullies, we take pictures of the contract award, next to the Minister. Then we wonder how they know the tunnels, I mean gullies so well. They got money to study, fix and make usable the tunnels, I mean gullies.
5/31/2010
Politicians are the root of the problem! Oh! Mr. Minister, you must be so shocked. I am sure you didn't know who was signing the contract. lol
5/31/2010
good,now go straight to prison...do not collect 40 million....go staight to prison!
5/31/2010
The image of O'gilvie and Mike Henry of the JLP is definitely a KODAK MOMENT !! Hopefully, it will be published in tomorrow's edition of the Observer !!

Clovis - nuff baby fadda deh bout!
5/31/2010
You know, the more I think about it...I realize that we have to be realistic...I took the photograph into photoshop and brightened it up a bit....The look on Mikes Henrys' face said a lot, he looks very worried...Truthfully, given the control these men exerted over Tivoli and Jamaica, who else could have gotten a contract there?
5/31/2010
what a passa passa...
5/31/2010
one of the alligations in the foreign press is that dudus in on the GOV. Ja pay roll. Now is this not proof? In the US some of the old crime bosses we brought down using tax evasion and that kind of tactic. We should be using these too.
By the way apart from the extradition warrant is dudus wanted by the jamaican police for any crimes committed? If yes what crimes? I havent heard any thing in that regard
5/31/2010
The biggest question now must be...How do we make sure that this NEVER happen in Jamaican again, this has to be more than a revelation, it has to be a REVOLUTION.
Thanks Observer for helping to keep to fire burning, keep up the pressure...
This one picture is worth a lot...
5/31/2010
Now I see why when KINGFISH was created it was NEVER given the mandate to arrest POLITICIANS, only DONS, EXTORTIONISTS, RACKETEERS, GANGSTERS....Wake up Jamaica!!! POLITICS is the ROOT of CRIME IN JAMAICA...Comm. Ellington/COS Saunders....strip the disguises and let us see some of the politcians in custody too....Dudus was smart but he never looked at the history!! Political pawns are dispensable - Massop, LL. Coke, Bulbie, SSP Adams, Col. McMillan.....all have lost their battles.

You can easily identify the people who live overseas on this forum. When people start praising the Jamaican police for a job well done you just have to laugh. Somebody really need to enlighten some of these folks about police corruption and brutality in Jamaica. Just ask human rights organisation Amnesty International about the police in Jamaica.
5/31/2010
Observer, please publish this story on the front page of the paper tomorrow with the picture. Jamaicans who don't have access to the internet need to see something like this. We all know where the roots of Jamaican problems are and this picture speaks a thousand words.
I am looking to buy the paper tomorrow and you guys are doing an awesome job. Keep it up.

Food for thought, The caption says $28M contract for repairing Tivoli Gully, how about the Security Forces checking those gullies what else could have been constructed..and guess what, we paid for it.
5/31/2010
See!! It is always easy to scapegoat the foot soldiers on the front line but never go beyond the surface of things. To solve the problem of anything you have to go after the source. The corrupt politicians and the crooked police are no more better than the criminals they go after.
5/31/2010
Mike Henry needs a lawyer......
5/31/2010
Jamaica's Security i.e. Police, Military and their Investigative Teams should be commended for the work they have done thus far and should be supported in a Job well done, These Guys and Gals are on a 1st class basis and "Must" be respected..Thanks to all involved..I do not mean to mention the PM last, but I think Golding should be credited for seeing this through..don't stop here, continue the clean up campaign.
5/31/2010
I am so glad you guys head is not buried in the Proverbial sand anymore.
When will we see a picture of Dudus hugging up Bruce?
5/31/2010
The wicked think they could reign for ever, long run short catch. god is good god is great, time longer than rope,now it catch up with them.the wicked reign but not for ever, only god words shall stand in this time.
5/31/2010
This is where our money goes. Just live outside of thelaw in Jamaca and the contracts come your way
5/31/2010
Look who is beside O'Gilvie.
5/31/2010
The order was given to eradicate the employees and some of their family to boot.
When will the order be given to take in the employers? One half of the equation in this photo is being taken in - what about the other??
Until we stop merely addressing the symptoms instead of the cause all we are doing is window dressing.
5/31/2010
Look at the size of that contract! I guess you have to be on the wrong side of the law or of questionable character to get one. Well I guess more and more things will come to the surface. In a state of emergency, all information cannot be given out due to security reasons. A lot of the politicians are probably shaken in their boots. I wonder how many of them are preparing to go to Venezuela? What you sow, you shall reap!!
5/31/2010
So let me try and understand the situation here, a Multi-Million dollar Contract of tax-payers money was given to a known Thug who sat beside the minister and signed it. At the same time respectable companies are closing because a lack of business. I sometimes wonder if the real criminals are in west kingston or Gordon House. The level of corruption in this country makes my blood boil.
5/31/2010
The US needs to extradite these politicians.
5/31/2010
A picture is worth a thousand words...
5/31/2010
This is just getting better and better.
5/31/2010
Only in Jamaica do they give multimillion dollar contracts to persons who are so openly connected to wanted criminals and thugs.

Eternal Father, bless our land
Guide us with Thy mighty hand
Keep us free from evil powers
Be our light through countless hours
To our leaders, Great Defender,
Grant true wisdom from above
Justice, truth be ours forever
Jamaica, land we love
Jamaica, Jamaica, Jamaica, land we love
Teach us true respect for all
Stir response to duty's call
Strengthen us the weak to cherish
Give us vision lest we perish
Knowledge send us, Heavenly Father,
Grant true wisdom from above
Justice, truth be ours forever
Jamaica, land we love
Jamaica, Jamaica, Jamaica, land we love
