Is Lisa Hanna an Innocent Victim of Controversies?
Everald Warmington's usual tirades continued this week when he referred to Minister Lisa Hanna as a jezebel. This outburst was disrespectful and showed a lack of professionalism. Many believe his outburst this time has gone too far and disciplinary action needs to be taken since proper conduct is expected from all members of Parliament especially during a sitting of the House of Representatives. On the other hand, this is yet another public controversial incident involving Ms. Hanna. In fact, it appears that throughout her tenure as a government minister, she is constantly embroiled in uncomfortable issues that stirs up public attention. It includes but not limited to: the questionable handling of certain cases in her ministry; the bathing suit posting on social media; her comrade, Dayton Campbell, taking her to task; claims of her secretive survey to publicly declare her popularity; the Jamaica Observer 3 part publicity story; claims of fractions with the Prime Minister and her close circle; discontent with counselors in her constituency; claims by her counselors of impropriety; and now her dispute with Mr. Warmington which she quickly brought to her fans' attention on social media to incite their support. Is it pure coincidence that Ms. Hanna seems to attract controversy causing her to often become a popular debate topic on social media? But then, her PNP colleagues such as Natalie Neita-Headley, Imani Duncan-Price, Sharon Ffolkes-Abrahams, and others appear to be quietly working hard to do a good job without scandals or drama that generate public attention through social media debates. There is more than meets the eye.
