The Ministry of Amerindian Affairs (MoAA) is not taking criticisms of its operations lightly and in a strongly worded statement lashed out at critics for registering concerns over its functioning.
On Tuesday, the Ministry said that it has noticed “misinformation” being peddled surrounding the resolution of issues that exist in some Amerindian villages while calling out “well-wishers” for highlighting these issues. It accused persons shedding light on issues in the villages of spreading misinformation as well as undermining the progress of indigenous peoples while “sowing seeds of division and reducing their power to determine their own issues.”
