He later showed the media the damaged vehicle, which he said had not been repaired since the accident three months ago. In discussing his claims that the Opposition was out to get him, Roberts revealed that Rowley was "not only the Leader of the Opposition to me. "He was a close friend of my deceased mother. He ate at my father's home over the years. He knows me since I was seven years old." Roberts said despite those facts, Rowley never inquired about his health after he was involved in the accident. "He never had the decency to call and say 'boy, you're alright?' "So they are taking this politics thing to a little ridiculous level," he added. Late last year, Opposition MP Dr Amery Browne successfully moved for Roberts to be taken before the Committee of Privileges of the House of Representatives for allegedly misleading legislators on a matter involving T&T-born artiste Nicki Minaj.
