Hilare to quit WICB job
FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida – Dr Ernest Hilare, the outspoken and often controversial Chief Executive Officer of West Indies cricket, is leaving the job.
Sources close to the WICB reported that Hilaire will be leaving the WICB to take up a diplomatic posting in London in September.
He is to be St Lucia’s new Ambassador in London, under appointment by the recently elected St Lucia Labour Party government headed by Dr Kenny Anthony.
It is understood that Hilaire has already informed the board of his directors of his intention not to renew his contract.
The WICB has since moved swiftly to open the recruitment process and is already advertising across the region to fill the position. (CMC)
