PLP leader Philip “Brave” Davis was in Grand Bahama over the weekend where he touted his party’s five candidates for the island as the best choice.
He accused the Free National Movement of making empty promises for the island.
“Grand Bahama is in a bad state. For the past four years, Grand Bahama has been neglected by this heartless FNM government. We cannot say it enough.... An inadequate hospital facility, an overdue hotel deal that is draining the public’s purse, and a shell of an airport with no money to fix it and no time line when it will be fully operational.
“Grand Bahama has been given a bunch of empty promises.”
He said the suffering still evident on the island two years after Hurricane Dorian is eye-opening. He also said despite the governing party holding all four seats in Grand Bahama, the island’s people are still not in a better state four years after the last election.
The PLP has ratified Obie Wilchcombe, the party’s former representative for West Grand Bahama and Bimini; Kirk Russell; Ginger Moxey; Curt Hollingsworth and James Rolle Turner for Grand Bahama’s constituencies.

Da man need to stay off this island. He talkin' bout the FNM not fulfilling their promises, that's true, but they didn't fulfill theirs either with no covid or Dorian.

But most Bahamians thankfully now understand that Minnis is the very personification of evil in its most pure form. Strongly suggest that you too vote for the independent candidate who will be running in your constituency or, if you must, any other candidate but one put forward by the FNM.
