Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
~ Richardson voted out as Chairman, Nina Diaz chairlady.~
PHILIPSBURG:--- The five-member Supervisory Board of N. V GEBE voted out the chairman Bienvenido Richardson from his seat in a meeting Monday night and replaced him with Nina Diaz who expressed her wishes to be the chair of the board.SMN News learned that the board summoned its interim managing director Sharine Daniel to the meeting who is already in breach of the agreement signed between the board and the interim director, one of the breaches is the appointment made by Daniel two weeks after being appointed as interim director. Another concern discussed is the constant power outages the island is facing these past few days.
The Supervisory Board members of NV GEBE are:
Nina DiazBienvenido RichardsonConrad RichardsonKenneth Serrant Safira Ibrahim.
The government of St. Maarten it is understood is questioning the integrity and competence of the Supervisory Board of Directors since some members of the board are very close with its current interim manager and discussions that take place in board meetings are leaked to Daniel since she was the companys chief internal auditor. While Diaz is the new chair of the SBOD of NV GEBE it should also be noted that she has also close friends with the interim manager just like the ousted chairman Bienvenido Richardson.
