Fazeer Mohammed, the host of the morning talk show on State-owned television station Caribbean New Media Group (CNMG) has been sent home for an apparent bust up with Foreign Affairs Minister Suruj Rambachan on the "First Up" morning show last week.
Mohammed is reported to have said according to Islam women are not allowed to be in a leadership position in reference to Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar.
Andy Johnson, the Chief Executive Officer of the Government Information Services Limited (GISL) has reportedly replaced Mohammed.
CNMG claims Mohammed was sent home due to cost cutting exercise.
