After 20 years as head of the National Agricultural Research & Extension Institute (NAREI), Dr Oudho Homenauth received what he described as an “immediate dismissal” from Director General of the Ministry of Agriculture Madanlall Ramraj on March 8.
“Last Monday I was called to a meeting by the Director General at the Ministry and was told that this is my last day at NAREI,” Homenauth told Stabroek News yesterday.
While he has no intention of fighting to retain his position Homenauth told this newspaper that he is not comfortable with the smokescreen government has deployed to disguise its actions.
