More delinquent candidates turn up to sign Political Code of Conduct

Political Ombudsman Donna Parchment Brown, says more candidates contesting the 2016 General Elections have come forward to sign the Political Code of Conduct.

On Wednesday, Parchment Brown released a list showing that only 119 of the 152 nominated candidates had signed the document.

She bashed the delinquent candidates of blatantly disrespecting her office by not signing the code.

Noting that her office cannot force a candidate to sign, she asserts that the public will judge the action of those, if any, who decline to sign the code.
