My fellow Comrades and well-wishers of the St. Kitts-Nevis Labour Party, As we gather to commemorate the second anniversary of our historic victory on August 5, 2022, I am filled with immense pride and gratitude for the steadfast support and dedication of each one of you.
This celebration is not just a reminder of our triumph at the polls, but a testament to our collective commitment to building a brighter future for St. Kitts and Nevis for striving for better with the St Kitts Nevis Labour Party at the helm.
Today, however, we also gather with a heavy heart. Our beloved comrade, Honourable Glen ‘Ghost’ Phillip, a former Minister of Government and the Parliamentary Representative for St Christopher #4, has passed away. Honourable Phillip, affectionately known as ‘Ghost,’ was a pillar of strength and a beacon of hope for our community.
His dedication to the development of sports, particularly basketball, and his relentless efforts to uplift the youth of our nation will forever be etched in our memories. Honourable Phillip’s tenure as Minister of Youth Empowerment, Sports, Information Technology, Telecommunications, and Posts was marked by passion and vision.
He played a crucial role in advancing sports infrastructure and youth programs, fostering a spirit of unity and excellence. His legacy lives on in the many lives he touched and the numerous initiatives he championed. As we remember him, let us be inspired by his commitment to service and his love for our nation.
Reflecting on our journey over the past two years, we have much to celebrate. Our administration has implemented numerous transformative initiatives under the Independence RESET programme, designed to bring relief and stimulate economic growth.
Among these, the Independence 40 Workers Bonus of EC$1000 injected EC$45 million into our economy, directly benefiting our hardworking citizens. We have also addressed arrears in essential services, ensuring immediate reconnection for residential SKELEC
