DR MARIA AGARD denied yesterday that she was influenced by anyone within or outside the Barbados Labour Party (BLP) during the months of her political stand-off with the party.
However, she said that there was division within the BLP and that there were “senior members” who supported her throughout the impasse, which culminated in her expulsion from the party.
“Maria Agard is not easily influenced by anyone,” she told the DAILY NATION during an interview following a news conference at her dental office in Strathclyde, St Michael, where she announced she was challenging the decision of the party’s executive council.
“I have never been part of any agenda other than a constructive agenda for the institution I love and a country I love,” she said. (MB)
