Farley Augustine, the Chief Secretary and leader of the Tobago People’s Party (TPP), has announced that the party will unveil its complete roster of candidates for the upcoming Tobago House of Assembly (THA) elections by next week. Augustine dissolved the THA on November 12 during a legislative session in Scarborough, paving the way for elections scheduled between January 12 and February 12, 2026. Speaking at the Shaw Park Cultural Complex on November 13, Augustine expressed unwavering confidence in the TPP’s ability to retain its current 13 seats and potentially gain more. He emphasized the party’s focus on its achievements and a long-term development plan for Tobago, spanning from 2025 to 2040, aimed at fostering robust socio-economic growth. Augustine also highlighted the strategic use of an export license obtained by the THA on November 4, which will serve as collateral to upgrade equipment at Studley Park Ltd, thereby boosting production capacity. While Augustine refrained from specifying an exact election date, he assured that it would be announced in due course after consultations with the Prime Minister and the President. The TPP’s screening process for candidates is set to take place on November 16 at the Shaw Park Complex. Augustine dismissed the opposition PNM’s campaign slogan, recalling their previous electoral losses in 2013. The TPP’s campaign will focus on its vision for Tobago’s future, leveraging its track record and strategic initiatives to secure electoral success.
