JEAN BLAMES POLITICIANS FOR PRESIDENCY BLOCK
WYCLEF JEAN has lashed out over the decision to bar him from running for Haiti’s presidency, insisting officials are conspiring to keep him out of office.
The hip-hop star has been ruled out of the upcoming November (10) elect ions in his native country after it was decided he didn’t meet residency requirements.
The Gone Till November hitmaker is keen to appeal the decision through Haiti’s courts but reports suggest the electoral council’s ruling is fina l and cannot be overturned.
And Jean is furious over the decision - because he believes he is fully eligible to be on the ballot.
He says, "They violated the constitution to benefit their families and their friends who continue to live off the people’s money… I have spent half of my life in Haiti going back and forth."
