LETTER: Are our representatives sleeping or failing?

In a heartfelt letter to the editor, a concerned resident of the All Saints East and St. Luke community has voiced growing frustration over the apparent neglect by local representatives. Amidst an ongoing vehicle scandal, the resident questions whether elected officials are failing in their duties or simply turning a blind eye to the pressing issues faced by the community. The letter specifically calls out Parliamentary Representative Mr. Jamale Pringle, Prime Minister Gaston Browne, and ABLP Caretaker Mr. Lamin Newton, urging them to address the deteriorating conditions in the area. The resident highlights the lack of progress in the Government’s clean-up and beautification initiative, pointing to overgrown grass in Folley’s and nearly impassable roads within the Folley’s Housing Development. The letter also criticizes the Ministry of Works for its failure to repair the community’s crumbling infrastructure. The resident expresses exhaustion over unfulfilled promises and calls for leaders to prioritize the needs of their constituents over political agendas. The plea underscores a broader demand for accountability and action from both the Government and the Opposition.
