Bishop Edghill resigns from the ERC

Bishop Juan Edghill has resigned from the Ethnic Relations Commission.

This was expected as he had mounted the PPP/C platform during the recent elections campaign and has now been named a minister of government.

His letter dated December 9th was addressed to  Yvonne Langevine, the Chief Executive Officer, Ethnic Relations Commission.

Edghill has become a divisive and controversial political figure and the main opposition PNCR had opposed his continuing as the Chairman of the ERC and had not cooperated with the body as a result.
