Former vice president of Jack Warner has filed a lawsuit seeking an estimated TT$16 million from the Trinidad and Tobago Football Association.
Warner, who had in previous years served as a special a TTFA advisor, claims in the lawsuit that he had provided the money to the local body which has failed to make the repayments even though it had acknowledged the loan.
Warner claims that he had provided the loans totaling TT$15,761,003, over a 15 year period and that the funds were used to cover the TTFA’s expenses, including the successful 2006 World Cup qualification campaign.
The Trinidad Guardian newspaper, quoting from the lawsuit filed on Monday, noted that Warner had claimed that the TTFA never disputed its debt to him, as it was reflected in its financial statements between 2007 and 2012.
