A friend (of a friend) interviewed the Prime Minister of the Bahamas on Wednesday. An excerpt can be found below. As Nick Damianos (appropriately) pointed out - “This will make those who live in the Bahamas cry; and those who live in first world countries laugh.”
We understand that you requested files on two dozen customs officers yesterday who have been alleged to be involved in corruption, can you comment on that?
I am the Prime Minister of the Bahamas. The people of the Bahamas may have an interest in knowing what files I see. I see many files.
Files involving illegal activity?
Many files, many files, everyday of my life I see files.
Are you personally looking into allegations of corruption at customs?
Everyday of my life I see files.
Have you not looked at the files?
I look at many files everyday.
Are you concerned about corruption in that area?
I am concerned about corruption wherever it exists, wherever it exists.
