Haitian president Michel Martelly replied to allegations made by former president Jean Bertrand Aristide that there is a hunger problem in Haiti and that those in power are not doing anything about it.

President Martelly "defended his record and marked his difference to Lavalas" in an exclusive interview to Scoop FM. This, according to an article, in French, from Le Nouvelliste

"Someone is pretending to attack the problem of hunger when he spent 10 years in power. This is a lie," President Martelly says without mentioning once the name Jean Bertrand Aristide

In this pre-election season in Haiti, tension is starting to build up between the Martelly presidency and the LAVALAS party of Jean Bertrand Aristide.

I have just recently returned home from time spent in Haiti.

I can't speak on what President Martelly is or is not doing about the problem of hunger in Haiti.

It is a great problem and would love to know that something is being done. As far as Martelly vs Aristide.
