Philipsburg:--- Board Members of the Democratic Party are furious at their leader Prime Minister Sarah Wescot Williams whom they instructed on Thursday night to send home Minister of Health and Labour Maria Buncamper Molanus. The board of the Democratic Party advised Wescot Williams to force Minister Buncamper Molanus to resign as early as Friday but the DP leader it is understood is not in favour of sending home Buncamper Molanus. Minister Maria Buncamper Molanus and her husband Claudius Anthony Buncamper are involved in yet another scandal as they sold the economic rights of a parcel of land they obtained from government. The sale of economic rights to Eco Green was done on December 19th 2009.SMN News learnt that the board of the Democratic Party feels that retaining Buncamper Molanus as a Minister will be detrimental to their party. On Thursday night, the party president Michael Ferrier told SMN News that the board had submitted its advice to the leader of the party and she was also given the authority to decide what is best for the Democratic Party. Sources say some members of the board contacted their party leader on Friday demanding that she send the Minister home immediately. Those pressuring the Prime Minister is Member of Parliament Roy Marlin, President of the DP Board Michael Ferrier and board member Julian Rollocks.
Reliable sources close to the Buncampers said that the Minister has already taken a decision to resign and to quit politics since she can no longer take the pressure from the Democratic Party and the general public who have been calling for her resignation since this latest scandal broke.
SMN News also learnt that their coalition partner UP leader Theo Heyliger has given the Democratic Party until this weekend to resolve Buncamper Molanus scandal.
SMN News has been reliably informed that Wescot Williams is fearful of the Buncampers because she too sold government lease land in the early 1990's. The source said that Wescot Williams obtained a parcel of land in Simpson Bay and later sold it for a large sum of money. The plot of land granted to the leader of the Democratic Party is located across from the fire station in Simpson Bay where Thrifty's Car Rental is located. According to our sources, Wescot Williams sold the property to an Italian who recently passed away. It must be noted that while government forbids the sale or transfer of lease land if it is vacant, it is not forbidden to sell lease land if a building is on the property.
