woieeeeeeeeTweet Blues: MP Says Sorry To Miss World Finalist
North West St Ann MP Dr Dayton Campbell has apologised to one of the finalists in the Miss Jamaica World pageant following an offensive comment he posted on Twitter last night.
Shortly after Jenaae Jackson was announced the contestant with the 'best shape', the Government MP took to the social media website tweeting: "bout best shape, she shape like the Jamaican economy."
The comment by the MP triggered widespread condemnation from Twitter users who regarded the post as irresponsible and inappropriate.
"Our values are eroding slowly but surely," tweeted sports expert Carole Beckford.
Another follower @dpos_smith simply tweeted "Irresponsible!"
Dr Campbell would later remove the post and say sorry for his comment.
In one of two posts expressing remorse at his tweet Campbell tweeted: "To whom much is given much is expected, I should know better. Sorry madam. Apologies also to people in twitter land."
Jenaae went on to be placed first runner-up to the 2013 Miss Jamaica World Gina Hargitay, Miss Nirvana Magazine.
Second runner up was Amanda McCreath - Miss Margaritaville Jamaica.
In May, Campbell also came in for harsh criticism after supporting the views of Kingston Mayor Angela Brown Burke that the media were biased.
He made the suggestion because on the same night TVJ had the Opposition leader, Andrew Holness on the current affairs programme, All Angles, CVM had Opposition spokesman on Finance Audley Shaw on its programme Direct.
Campbell, in a series of exchanges with his followers insisted that the Prime Minister or the Finance Minister should have been invited on the programmes.

It amaze me when public figures live their lives on social media.
What do they expect.- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.

Who is mirroring what? Politicians mirroring society or vice versa?

They strike me as trying to seem hip and edgy to impress the youngsters on social media...how can you represent your "company" online and be acting like a schoolboy...his twitter handle is @DrCampbellPNP and his bio states "Medical Doctor, Past President of JMDA. Believer in Jamaica, Member of Parliament for St. Ann north western. Most importantly proud father."...yet he continues with juvenile behaviour online...Comment

"Good things come out of the garrisons" after his daughter won the 100m Gold For Jamaica.
"It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.Comment
