The PM seems not to know or care that the Bahamas is in a crisis. 15 people shot. Admission and selective surgeries canceled. The power outage in Bimini which affects tourism yet the PM travels and has a good time.

The Haitian woman in Abaco said they put the FNM in power. PM the hounds of hell are bitting at your ankle.
