The Communication Office of the First Lady Martine Moïse, denies the statement made by Jacques Elibert, Director General of the National Office of Identification (ONI) front the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Committee of the Senate (questioned about his trip to France and signing with the German firm Dermalog which benefited from a controversial $27 million contract for the purchase of equipment to increase the production of National Identification Cards in Haiti https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-25372-haiti-politic-$27m-to-replace-new-equipment.html ), statement reported Friday by Senator Youri Latortue President of the Commission in these terms "[...] the Director of the ONI added that he was part of a delegation composed, inter alia, of the First lady, Martine Moïse."

The office of the First Lady denies these statments that suggests that Martine Moïse would have stayed in France in order to sign a contract with the firm Dermalog and said "The reported facts are wrong and do not correspond with reality. During the official trips of the First Lady she is brought to meet other Haitian delegation also present for other reasons. In no case, the First Lady of the Republic Martine Moïse has signed or played of her influence to sign a contract with the firm cited in the report of the Senate Anti-Corruption Commission."

The Bureau reminds that when the First Lady travels she is accompanied by her communication team and her security agents and that the First Lady's trips abroad are made by official invitation of the First Ladies of other countries or international organizations stating "During her travels the First Lady of the Republic discusses with her counterparts to better coordinate its actions in the country as part of its projects on Early Childhood the fight against HIV AIDS tuberculosis and the malaria."
