Collymore hospitalised

Former Minister within the Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development Clinton Collymore was yesterday admitted to the Georgetown Hospital after complaining of chest pains.

Checks last evening revealed that the former Minister arrived at the institution around 5 pm and was placed in the High Dependency Unit. He was subsequently transferred to the Intensive Care Unit for observation.

Sources within the government said that Collymore complained of feeling ill earlier in the day and was taken to the hospital and admitted for observation. The ex-minister’s hospitalisation came a day after Head of the Presidential Secretariat Dr Roger Luncheon was taken there following a fall which aggravated a chronic back ailment.
