Tree Blocking Stoplight on Red Hills Road in Kingston

The following message was sent to me by a supporter:

Dear Vernon, Obscure traffic lights as you approach the Dunrobin overpass going north on Red Hills Road.  This tree is in someone’s yard and needs to be cut. Lights are not visible until you pass the intersection. Please help.


This is another indication of how things are allowed to fall apart without any accountability.. the KSAMC should monitor things like these, the police should play a part in having this matter dealt with. The NWA which is responsible for street lights also has a responsibility to ensure that this matter is dealt with as soon as possible.

PNP Calls Allegations Relating to Monetary Offers to a Former Candidate Spurious Allegations

Press Release From The People's National Party - 20250113:


The People's National Party (PNP) notes with concern the spurious allegations relating to monetary offers being circulated by a former candidate, sections of the media, and the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP). While such claims may spark political intrigue for some, they contradict the Party's long-standing policies and practices.

The PNP remains focused on upholding the principles of transparency and good governance.

The matter will be addressed at a time convenient to the Party

We encourage the public and media to focus on the Party's continued efforts to serve the people of Central Kingston with integrity and dedication.

Editor's note:

In response to readers who asked why this press release was not posted earlier, please understand that I received it this afternoon.

Secure Your Cell Phones, Your Funds and Your Relationships



I have posted information on Bark Di Trute previously about securing the information on your cellular phone and also your computers, but I don't believe many people have taken this seriously.

Persons who have lost significant sums from their bank accounts could be due to unsecured information on their phones.

Assuming that you have sensitive information on your phone, such as bank information, x-rated pictures, and pictures of your side chick or guy, these are some rules to follow:

  1. Do not lend your cell phone to anyone. Anyone means even your spouse.
  2. Do not allow anyone to send a request to your phone asking you to send them a generated code.
  3. Do not give out your phone to be repaired, and share your password with the repairman.
  4. Put your phone in repair mode before giving it out to be serviced. Persons can access your banking information and also download all your contacts. Your contact information can then be sold to persons.
  5. Change the password on your phone every six months. Use an 8-char password with a mixture of upper-case and lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols.
  6. Use a VPN service.
  7. Install an antivirus programme.
  8. Do not access confidential information over public wifi.
  9. Ensure that the phone software is updated.
  10. Encrypt the data on your phone.
  11. Back up your phone information.
  12. Do not allow anyone to stand close to you when you are at the cashier in a supermarket. You are very vulnerable at this point. You might end up leaving your phone on the counter, and the person next to you picks it up while you are still logged into the phone.
  13. Ensure that your phone (android) is linked to your Google account. This will enable you to track your phone, lock it or wipe the data from your phone if it is stolen. If your phone is linked to your Google account, then even if you lose your phone, you will still have your contacts, pictures, calendar, and other information. Other services can give similar support.
Our phone contains very important and sensitive information, so ensure that your data is secured. There is plenty of information online to assist you. Don't wait until it is too late.

JLP Releases Statement Regarding Change in PNP Standard Bearer for Central Kingston

 Press Release From The Jamaica Labour Party - 20250113:

Marlon Morgan - JLP Spokesman


Member of the Jamaica Labour Party’s (JLP) Communications Taskforce, Marlon Morgan, says details contained in a revealing social media post by the PNP’s former caretaker for Central Kingston,  Lawrence Rowe and a letter written by PNP President Mark Golding to Rowe, confirm the willingness of the PNP to breach principles of good governance, engage in state capture and employ corrupt means to secure political power.

Rowe's revelation that he was offered millions of dollars, a Senate seat and a Board Position in exchange for his withdrawal as PNP candidate reflects the inappropriate judgement and unprincipled approach of the PNP to the business of governance.

Mr. Morgan says:

"To compound matters, Rowe's revelation that he was promised support from the Kingston and St. Andrew Municipal Corporation in his campaign for the Central Kingston seat and that the PNP General Secretary, Dr. Dayton Campbell confirmed that there is no intention to deny him the resources reiterates the PNP's willingness to use corrupt means to secure political power. KSAMC Chairman and Kingston's Mayor Andrew Swaby has serious questions to answer following the revelation by Rowe".

Additionally, PNP President Mark Golding's suggestion that he approved a candidate which was rejected by his Party's so called Integrity Committee raises serious serious questions about Golding's judgement and suitability to govern Jamaica.

Among the revelations by Rowe is that on December 30, 2024: 

“The General Secretary [Dayton Campbell] called to inform me that the Party Leader [Mark Golding] had committed to the following: One of the 13 Senate appointments, Board membership at a housing agency, [and] $15 million in resources. He also explained that the party was experiencing a cash flow crisis”.

Mr. Morgan says: 

“The PNP has serious questions to answer as they have not moved to disavow the allegations made by Lawrence Rowe, nor has the public heard of any legal action being telegraphed or pursued against him for asserting things that are untrue and defamatory. Additionally, if the PNP belatedly challenges the allegations, the public can have no assurance that Lawrence Rowe’s silence going forward has not been bought. The PNP is in an invidious and untenable position as the kind of horse-trading disclosed by Lawrence Rowe in the fizzled negotiation of his exit, present an egregious and disturbing proposition of state capture and is an affront to the democratic process in Jamaica”.

Morgan asserted: 

“Opposition Leader Mark Golding is on record indicating his intention to form Government with a ‘topanaris’ set of people around him. While the public may now deduce that Lawrence Rowe is not ‘topanaris’ enough, the real questions that arise are: How many of its decisions does the PNP make in the manner alleged by Lawrence Rowe? Are there other persons with whom the PNP has similarly negotiated, and what monetary reward or position in a future PNP Administration have they been promised?"

Mr. Morgan concluded :

"Jamaica is not a banana republic and should never have its best interests undermined by the machinations of a political party that is desperate for state power. This Lawrence Rowe/PNP feud presents yet another reason why the Jamaican people should reject the PNP and ensure that Mark Golding does not come anywhere near the reins of government in this country”.

Breaking News - More Killings In Waltham Park???

Big guns were barking in Waltham Park, Kingston, this evening This is what I was told by someone who sent me a message. Initial information is that five persons are dead.

I am appealing to the JCF to confirm this matter quickly and share the information with the media using the Emergency Alert System. The Emergency Alert System was set up to allow certain organizations to get voice, text, and video to media persons as it happens. We need to get accurate information out there before social media starts to spread its own stories.

If you are in the area and you have information about what is happening in Waltham Park, then send me a WhatsApp message at 876-816-5261.

The police need to look at the possibility that gangs are attempting to disrupt society and give the impression that this is all about politics. This line of reasoning would benefit the gangs who want Jamaica to become another Haiti. You have been warned. We are entering a new danger zone. Jamaicans must stand up against criminals. We must support the security forces and the security forces must support law-abiding citizens.

The Private Sector Organization of Jamaica, headed by Mr. Metry Seaga, had a very interesting conversation with Vernon Derby. For those who missed the programme on the radio, here is a wonderful opportunity to listen to and share this conversation.

The points mentioned by Mr. Seaga should be discussed by the people and the political parties. We need to know the position of the political parties on these issues mentioned by Mr. Seaga. The next election cannot be just about the parties throwing curse words at each other.
