Richard Frederick corruption allegations grow as Dr. Cadelia Ambrose is accused of siphoning government funds.

New revelations in the ongoing corruption scandal involving Richard Frederick, Minister of Housing and Local Government, and his Permanent Secretary, Dr. Cadelia Ambrose, are sending shockwaves through St. Lucia. Documents obtained by Unitedpac St. Lucia News suggest a troubling pattern of misuse of public funds and fraudulent contracts within the Ministry of Housing.

The latest revelations center around a questionable contract tied to Dr. Cadelia Ambrose’s property on the Morne and raise significant concerns about corruption at the highest levels of the Ministry.

A Contract Under Scrutiny

At the heart of these fresh allegations is a contract that appears to be deliberately kept just below $100,000. This threshold is crucial as it allows the contract to avoid the scrutiny of the Procurement Committee, Treasury, and other regulatory bodies.

The questions now being asked are damning:

  • Was this contract meant for the construction of Dr. Cadelia Ambrose’s private residence?
  • Why was the contract value kept under $100,000—was this a calculated move to avoid oversight?

These are questions that Richard Frederick and Dr. Cadelia Ambrose have yet to answer publicly, and the silence is only fueling more suspicion.

Who is Mr. Sylvester?

The player in the unfolding drama is Mr. Sylvester, whose name appears on the contract. Described as a contractor tied to the project, Mr. Sylvester is allegedly involved in a cemetery expansion project. However, reports suggest that Mr. Sylvester has never even visited the cemetery site.

This has raised more questions:

  • What does Mr. Sylvester know about cemetery construction?
  • Why is his name linked to a project he seems to know nothing about?

Sources close to the situation say that Mr. Sylvester was shocked to learn that he was involved in collecting a significant sum from the Government Treasury for a project he wasn’t aware of.

A Whistleblower Speaks Out

Mr. Sylvester’s revelations could be a turning point. According to sources, he was surprised when he was handed a large sum of money from the Government Treasury for work he didn’t know about. This has led many to believe that the funds were being funneled for other purposes—possibly the construction of Dr. Cadelia Ambrose’s property.

Key questions are now being directed at Dr. Cadelia Ambrose:

  • How much of the money from these checks did you pocket, Dr. Ambrose?
  • Why was Mr. Sylvester unaware of the funds attached to his name?

This is a major development that puts both Dr. Cadelia Ambrose and Richard Frederick under even more pressure.

Internal Strife at the Ministry

There have also been rumblings of internal conflict within the Ministry of Housing. Sources indicate that Deputy Permanent Secretary Ms. Solange has been reporting on the alleged corruption to Prime Minister Philip J. Pierre for some time.

Dr. Cadelia Ambrose has reportedly expressed surprise at these actions, but the fact that her own department is turning against her raises further concerns. Insiders are now asking:

  • Dr. Ambrose, are you still surprised that Deputy PS Solange continues to report your dealings to Prime Minister Pierre?
  • Why do you think Mr. Sylvester felt compelled to come forward?

As internal resistance grows, more whistleblowers may come forward, adding to the escalating crisis.

05
of 06
Public Demands Accountability

The growing scandal is igniting public anger. Many St. Lucians are now demanding that Richard Frederick step down from his role as Minister of Housing. Dr. Ambrose, too, is under intense scrutiny, as calls for her resignation grow louder.

Political observers are drawing parallels between this scandal and the broader corruption associated with the Citizenship by Investment Program (CIP), suggesting that the Housing Ministry may be operating in a similar manner. With every new revelation, the demand for accountability becomes more urgent.

06
of 06
The Next Move

As the nation waits for answers, all eyes are on Prime Minister Philip J. Pierre. Will he take decisive action in the face of mounting evidence, or will this scandal follow the same path as other unresolved corruption cases in the country?

The public is watching closely, and the pressure is building.
