The forgotten Village

Poor People In St Joseph Crying
by Clyde Gregoire

Hon Monell Williams
Parliamentary representative hopeful for the St Joseph constituency last night, Thursday 23rd March 2017 informed the constituents in the St Joseph  community that ‘Layou’ is  leading the way for a change of the manner in which business is conducted in the constituency. She highlighted the much needed market for the St Joseph community which is being ignored by Roosevelt Skeritt and his gang.

“There is a rise in poverty and using poor people as a bait to remain in government with the own poor people’s money,” She voiced to the crowd of villagers and party supporters. Miss Williams also spoke of her heartache and the scarcity of economic activity in St Joseph and little or no employment. Other politicians from the opposition party who spoke last night included Mr. Ronald Charles from Roseau valley,  the parliamentary representative for Salisbury constituency Honorable Hector John,  the parliamentary representative for the Wesley constituency Hon Ezekiel Basil and the hopeful parliamentary representative for the Colihaut Constituency.

The evening meeting ended with a video presentation by the leader of the United workers party Honorable Lennox Linton putting faces to the names of persons who held or holds Dominica passport and Diplomatic passports and who  are currently under prosecution in their country of origin for crimes ranging from money laundering to theft of state funds. The series of recent declarations have rocked the financial community worldwide forcing the opposition party to ask the Skerrit Regime to resign.
