In a heated political debate, Dr. Godwin Friday, the New Democratic Party’s candidate for the Northern Grenadines, faces allegations of ineligibility to serve as a member of Parliament. Critics argue that his Canadian citizenship disqualifies him under Section 26(1) of the Constitution of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, which prohibits individuals from holding office if they acknowledge allegiance to a foreign state. Dr. Friday voluntarily obtained Canadian citizenship and a passport, actions that opponents claim constitute an acknowledgment of allegiance to Canada. An objection to his nomination was filed by electors on November 10, 2025, challenging his qualification. The controversy raises questions about the validity of his candidacy, with opponents urging voters to reconsider their support, labeling a vote for Dr. Friday as ‘wasted.’ The outcome of this legal challenge could significantly impact the political landscape of the Northern Grenadines.
