Adams should step away from GFF roles until court case resolved – MP Figueira

Jermaine Figueira

With former Demerara Harbour Bridge Manager,  Rawlston Adams currently facing a charge of  financial fraud, Shadow Minister for Culture, Youth and Sport Jermaine Figueira, has stated that he should step away from roles in the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) including that of Chair of its Financial Committee.

Figueira, who serves as APNU+AFC Member of Parliament says the image of the GFF could be smeared given the severity of the allegation against Adams.

In an exclusive interview with Stabroek Sport, Figueira said:  “The image of any organisation given the nature of such allegation is not going to be viewed in a positive light, but I am confident that given the nature of the allegations the GFF will engage in discussions on this matter and it will happen in due time and their leadership will make a decision in the best interest of the federation.”
