Former Haitian prime minister Jacques Edouard Alexis accuses Senator Youri Latortue of being a corrupt man pretending to be fighting against corruption.

In a press conference in Parliament, Thursday, August 9, Depute Gary Bodeau issued this warning to New Prime Minister Jean Henry Ceant:

Haitian Senator Rony Celestin calls on all members of parliament, Senators and Deputes alike, to let President Jovenel Moise and his Prime Minister decide who will be in their cabinet, Ministres, Secretaires d'Etat, etc... Senator Rony Celestin wants no deals between parliament in this government.

After the announcement that Jean Henry Ceant was chosen to be the next Prime Minister of Haiti, His former G-8 buddy Moise Jean Charles said he doesn't care who is Prime Minister of Haiti, he wants Haitian Jovenel Moise out of the National Palace.

The suspense for the choice of prime minister is over, President Jovenel Moise posts on his twitter page: Following consultations with the Presidents of the two branches of Parliament, I have chosen citizen Jean-Henry Ceant as the new Prime Minister of Haiti.

There is a rumor starting to spread on social media Sunday that Jean Henry Ceant was chosen as the next prime minister of Haiti out of a list of 4 candidates.

After long talks and discussions the list of who will be his next prime minister has narrowed down to these four people. Here are their names:

The United Nations Mission in Support of Justice in Haiti (MINUJUSTH) has a new leader. American Helen Meagher La Lime replaces Susan D. Page as special representative.

President Jovenel told the Haitian media Tuesday the name of the next prime minister of Haiti will be known definitely before the end of the week.

Depute Gary Bodeau wrote to president Jovenel Moise to tell him to "accelerate the process of designating the choice of a Prime Minister and setting up a government to regenerate hope and bring peace to the streets of Haiti."
