In 1987 she decided to move on to do be her own mistress in the program "Nuria in 9" which was renamed to "Nuria: Investigative Journalism" in early 2000.

Loc don't me fool, The $800.000.000. you talking about on the martelly predeceso's governmenmt are considered like international's help.but the $2.587.100.00 that Michel or Michael J. Martelly got are from a foreign's particular.
I don't mind that Martelly recived money for his election.but when he continues to collect money from the same particular named Bautista after he invest the power, what do you call that;For you is good for Martelly recieved any kind of money, even thaugh drug's money or corruption's money if martelly put that dirty money toward the haitian army or in educational'system he's corrected.
I respect point of view, and I respect your opinion you got a point if he received the money after the election it's illegal base on the Haitian constutition to received it, maybe he putting toward the Haitian Army, better yet toward the education system, lol thank god it's $2.5 millions not $800,000,000 million like our previous predecessor, I take that anytime, I don't mind that at all at least he is creating something positolive for the people's of
Mr Loc.do you think it is legal for a president received some money after he was invest the power, the rest of money bautista supposed to give him before the election.
According to the electoral's law in those articles like 131-132-133-133.1 said;any candidat don't have right to receive more than two millions gourdes which equal at $50.000us.according to the law if you receive more than that, you have to mention that to the electoral consul.
Do you think it is legal for sweet micky Michel or Michael J. Martelly got $2.587.100 us form Bautista a senator of DR who was been jailed for corruption on Hipolito Meiya's government.
I personally do see anything wrong a presidential candidate to accept contribution from from firm it is normal, Haiti is a democracy just like the USA, or should I say like America, it not illegal in American politic, why should it be illegal in
