Valerie Green, widow of the celebrated calypsonian Lord Kitchener (Aldwyn Roberts), said people are not patronising tents because of crime, and it was imperative to take the tents to people in the respective communities. She also said the family was grateful Kitchener was still receiving posthumous awards-the most recent being the honorary doctorate from the University of Trinidad and Tobago (UTT) in 2017.

Green made these comments recently when the National Trust made a pit stop at Kitchener's upside-down, umbrella-shaped former home, Rain-O-Rama, in Diego Martin. Also in attendance were National Trust chief executive officer Valerie Taylor, communications officer Chenelle Spooner, and administrative officers Marlon Green and Judith Marchan.
