$80M Daren Sammy Stadium Heist: How Corrupt SLP Politicians Brazenly Cashed In

Allegations of corruption and cronyism engulf the $80M Daren Sammy Stadium project as SLP politicians face mounting scrutiny.

Taxpayer Outrage Grows as SLP’s $80M Daren Sammy Stadium Heist Unveils a Web of Corruption and Cronyism

SAINT LUCIA – The so-called “renovation” of the Daren Sammy Cricket Stadium was nothing more than a shameless plundering of public funds—a carefully orchestrated cash grab that enriched corrupt SLP politicians and their closest cronies.

What was pitched as a major investment in sports infrastructure has now been exposed as one of the most brazen acts of government corruption in recent history.

Instead of responsibly using taxpayer money to enhance a national sporting landmark, the Saint Lucia Labour Party (SLP) government allegedly turned the project into a kickback scheme, lining the pockets of their associates while leaving the country burdened with massive debt and failing sports programs.

Kenson Casimir’s Cousin Lands Suspicious Multi-Million-Dollar Contracts

One of the biggest beneficiaries of this publicly funded looting spree was Joel Darell Anthony, the cousin of Youth Development and Sports Minister Kenson Casimir.

  • Anthony spent most of his life in Barbados, only returning to Saint Lucia about five years ago to open a small machine shop in Grande Rivière.
  • Mysteriously, after Casimir’s election victory, Anthony became one of the biggest government contractors in Saint Lucia.
  • Anthony has admitted that a massive portion of the project’s funds went directly to SLP politicians, many of whom have suspiciously acquired luxury vehicles and properties in the past few years.

Where did the money actually go? The evidence suggests it never went into actual renovations—it vanished into the hands of political insiders who saw the stadium project as a personal jackpot.

Richard Frederick’s Right-Hand Man Also Profited

The second major contractor involved in this scandalous heist was Dax Norville, the closest associate of Housing Minister Richard Frederick.

  • Norville then subcontracted Angus Docithe, a former taxi driver, who has now miraculously become one of Saint Lucia’s biggest contractors overnight.
  • Docithe also operates a bar at Pigeon Island, which many suspect is a front for Richard Frederick’s financial dealings.

The pattern is clear—inexperienced, politically connected individuals were handed lucrative contracts while legitimate contractors were shut out.

The $80M National Lotteries Authority Loan: A Corrupt Cover-Up?

This highly suspect money trail leads directly to the $80 million loan taken under the National Lotteries Authority (NLA)—a move critics say was nothing but a front to funnel money into the hands of SLP elites.

The result?

  • The NLA is now drowning in debt, unable to fund school sports programs or community initiatives.
  • The very youths that Casimir pretends to advocate for have been betrayed, their future sold off to finance political greed.

Saint Lucians Demand Answers

The evidence of corruption is overwhelming, and the public is rightfully enraged. The people of Saint Lucia deserve transparency and accountability.

Here are the burning questions the Pierre administration refuses to answer:

  • Where is the audit for the Daren Sammy Stadium renovations?
  • Why were contracts handed to close SLP allies without a proper bidding process?
  • How did political insiders with zero prior experience land these multi-million-dollar deals?
  • What happened to the $80 million borrowed under the NLA?

The truth is damning—this wasn’t just mismanagement. This was a deliberate, calculated scheme to loot taxpayer money.

Corruption at the Highest Level?

With millions in public funds funneled into private pockets, Prime Minister Philip J. Pierre, Kenson Casimir, and Richard Frederick must now answer to the people.

Their deafening silence speaks volumes. Their refusal to address these blatant abuses of power is an insult to every Saint Lucian.

This scandal isn’t going away, and neither is the public’s demand for justice.
