wyclef tracked for everything!
The Smoking Gun reveals that charity Yele Haiti paid Khatou-Chevassus $105,000 as an independent contractor in 2008 for “program development”, adding to the controversy surrounding Wyclef Jean’s non-profit organization. “Jean’s organization reported having no employees, ‘only three consultants,’ the highest paid of which was Zakiya Khatou-Chevassus”. The website also exposes other conflicts of interest as shown by Yele Haiti’s 2008 tax return. The charity ‘received millions in the outpouring of generosity following’ the earthquake in Haiti.
