As the details of the contract signed by her daughter-in-law for a diplomatic posting in Canada went public, former Director General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Audrey Waddell was yesterday sent on immediate leave until her contract expires in May.

It is not likely that her contract will be renewed, according to well-placed sources.

“She was instructed to immediately proceed on leave. No reason was given, until her contract comes to an end,” one of the sources told Stabroek News.
