CARIFTA Games assistance used as political gamesmanship says Hutson

Aubrey Hutson

President of the Athletic Association of Guyana (AAG) Aubrey Hutson last night cleared the air on assistance from former Chairman of the Alliance for Change Nigel Hughes for the CARIFTA Games.

Hughes apparently was instrumental in getting financial assistance to the athletes in Jamaica to pay for COVID-19 tests and meals.

However, following his assistance Hughes wrote on his Facebook page…”Our national team which has done our oil rich nation so proud, was left in the embarrassing position where they had no finances for covid tests and meals for an extended day of their presence at the Carifta games.
