A WAR OF words has erupted between embattled trade unionist Akanni McDowall and outspoken Government Minister Donville Inniss.

The minister has accused McDowall, whose sudden reversion to his substantive post in the Ministry of Health has sparked industrial unrest, of being unqualified for the post in which he had been acting and suggested he was underperforming.
