EDITOR, The Tribune.

The Bible said your foes are of your own household; and a chorus said your enemy cannot harm you but keep an eye on those who are supposed to be your friends.

Now Mr Watson, as a senior member of the party, how could you allow yourself to “waller” in such a dirty mess by disrespecting our leader who we all so overwhelmingly voted for in November 2014, or were you an FNM just for a day?

You criticise him from day one, you try to make the public believe like you were such a great man in the FNM party. 

Please, sir, tell the nation what have you done in the FNM that made you think you are so great. Yes, you were Deputy to Mr Ingraham nothing happened so special about that appointment you didn’t have the gift of producing a motivational speech, no charisma, nothing to impress anybody, the only thing I know you were a good representative to your constituents.

Seeing that you have so much wisdom and knowledge, of what Dr Minnis should do and shouldn’t do you and your group should make an appointment with the leader coaching, explaining and helping him to know what is expected of him, not going to the papers discussing party business, that is unbecoming.

You know if you have a child and always say to him or her you are no good what do you expect the child to become? If you and your group don’t respect the leader there are a whole lot of us who love and care for him.

You see, Mr Watson, God made all of us different not because he don’t talk with his hands and scream aloud with mouth, he is sincere in whatever he does because he was trained as a Doctor, they were taught to be loving, humble, compassionate and caring for patients as well as people who he comes into contact with.

Please, do allow our leader to be himself and not imitate someone else. Mr Watson, leaders are made and we have a chance to help make one, let us try and practice what the Lord asked Moses, what do you have in your hand and Moses reply was a rod, therefore you use what you have to make the best out of the situation which is at hand. With that being said give him a change to prove himself.

This party was built on honesty and transparency, let us stop pretending and get ourselves ready to win the next general election so we can enforce laws such as any Bahamian that is capable of doing a job regardless of political preference, he or she should not be victimise.

You see what the PLP has done to you, it shows you how much we need to win the government so you can realise that it wasn’t Dr Minnis who let you go, it was the sitting government.

It is now time for us to stop all the foolishness and work together for one common goal and that is to win the next general election.

With God on our side we can go into an election with Dr Minnis as our leader because it’s God who set up kingdoms and it’s God who brings them down. Don’t forget the earth is the Lord and the fullness thereof and all that dwell therein. 

Let’s have faith and trust God in all things.

To Dr Minnis, people may spurn your appeal, reject your messages and oppose your arguments, but they are helpless against your prayers. 

I think the foolishness must stop, let us rally behind our leader and be ready for 2017 general election because many who are carrying on may not even be here to see it.
