Preschoolers get pool day

by GLORIAH...

PASSERSBY CLOSE TO THE PREMISESof the Salvation Army Preschool and Day Care, on the morning of last Friday, June 9, would have been quite enthused by a very heartening sight.

In the vacant area on the ground floor between the two separate areas of the institution, a number of overawed, excited girls dressed in swimwear was occupying a plastic pool, and were splashing water with glee as they waved and greeted those who had stopped to look on.

Right nearby was another pool, this time filled with boys who were equally engaged. It was an irresistible sight, as persons on the outside held on to the wrought iron gate, calling and waving to the children.

The Preschool and Daycare Centre of the Salvation Army cater to children between six months to four years old. Supervisor of both sections, Fenella Woodley, explained the children’s treat to THE VINCENTIAN. “We knew the summer heat was on and we just

thought we should give the children a little cooldown pool day.”

She said that by that time in the morning, the ‘Babies’ had already had their pool fun and had been taken upstairs to eat then take a nap.

“Our preschoolers are now in the water enjoying themselves.”

As for the ease or difficulty it took to pull the activity off, the Supervisor recalled, “We are always looking for different things to encourage the children and excite them. Some children don’t like to come to school so

we always do new things. For this activity we set a date and informed the parents asking them to bring the swimsuits, the towels and so on.” She admitted that while being inflated, one pool malfunctioned that very morning and a replacement had to be sought immediately.

Even as Supervisor Woodley spoke with THE VINCENTIAN, the other

personnel took shifts making sure there were no mishaps. These were: Activity Supervisor Vanessa Harry; Preschool teachers, Val Stapleton and Mikeisha Prescott; Daycare teachers, Ellica Caine and Marcia Thomas; and Secretary, John Gachelin. Kudos must be given to the Supervisor, Preschool teachers and Daycare personnel for finding creative ways to work with and/or circumvent challenging situations that present themselves from time to time.

One boy somehow found himself among the frolic that was meant for the girls.

Left: The boys had a pool all for themselves.

Homicide count climbing

JOEL “NAPPY” JOHN, a 32-year-old mechanic of La Croix., is this countries latest homicide.

The police, in a news release, said that John was shot multiple times as he was working on a truck in his yard.

He was apparently shot early in the evening of June 9 and was pronounced dead at the scene. His death brings the total homicides committed by civilians on civilians to 18. There are an additional three recorded shooting deaths attributed to police actions.

And the police had not yet wrapped up their perusal of this crime scene when they were called to another shooting this time in Sayers, Mesopotamia.

Romano Bynoe of Mesopotamia was the victim.

He was transported to the Milton Cato Memorial Hospital and by Monday where he MCMH for medical treatment, where he is said to be in stable condition.

AFTER WHAT SEEMED TO HAVE been a potentially damning fallout occasioned by a row between its PRO and the President of its Youth Arm, the Opposition New Democratic Party (NDP) has been thrown another ‘fast ball’.

The party now has to contend, given its selfprofessed adherence to the highest demands of democracy, transparency and fair play, with making a choice, perhaps unexpectedly, between two persons at least, for a candidate for the East St. George (ESG) constituency, for the next general election constitutionally due by March 2025.

Maferne Mayers-Oliver, a lawyer by profession, has advanced her name for consideration as an NDP candidate in East St. George.

This means that she would be effectively challenging ESG-NDP caretaker (candidate) Laverne Gibson-Velox, who contested the seat in the 2020, and put up what observers said was an unexpected “worthy” fight against the incumbent Camillo Gonsalves. She has remained active in the constituency.

Mayers-Oliver is not known to have had or shown any public political indications to date. She does have some ‘political pedigree’. Her father, Milton Mayers, is said to have held Sir James Mitchell’s hand as they crisscrossed mainland St. Vincent, and he contested the first post-Independence election, 1979, against his once close friend, Milton Cato, on an NDP ticket.

Another bump in the road for the NDP.

Maferne Mayers-Oliver - ready to rumble.

by HAYDN HUGGINS

TWO MENwill know their fat on July 14 for the double murder of two brothers, including a police officer, six years ago.

Schemel ‘Jacket’ Dunbar, 34, and Kendine ‘Hoody’ Douglas, 36, both of Rillan Hill, will be sentenced for the May 4, 2017 murder of Police Constable Danroy Cozier, 25, and his brother Nicholas Cozier, 19.

A 12-member Jury - six men and six women - at the Criminal Assizes on Friday, June 9, returned unanimous guilty verdicts on both counts after deliberating for just over four hours, and following a retrial that lasted for about three weeks.

Upon conviction, Justice Brian Cottle ordered a Social Inquiry report on Dunbar, at the request of his lawyer Carl Williams.

Attorney Grant Connell, who represented Douglas, did not request a Social Inquiry Report, saying he would handle that in his mitigation plea.

Fishermen had discovered the bodies of Danroy and Nicholas at Sion Hill Bay, close to 1 p.m. on May 4, 2017.

Autopsies showed that both men were shot twice in their heads.

Dunbar and Douglas were jointly charged with Richard ‘Carib’ Francis, a former police officer, attached to the local Coast Guard.

Francis pleaded guilty during the first trial and will be sentenced at a date to be fixed.

The Crown’s Case

The Crown’s case was that Richard Francis and Danroy Cozier’s vehicles were involved in an accident on April 26, 2017. Francis accepted liability, agreed to pay to fix Danroy’s vehicle, and arranged to pick up Danroy at Sion Hill on May 4, 2017. But Francis, instead, hired Dunbar for $1,500 to kill Danroy, and Dunbar took Douglas with him, as his ‘wingman’. However, when Francis went to Sion Hill to pick up Danroy, Danroy’s younger brother Nicolas, also entered and left with the van.

Dunbar and Douglas were at the back of the van and during the journey, Dunbar shot the brothers, and Douglas assisted in dumping the bodies at Sion Hill Bay.

The Crown’s case relied on electronic interviews, statements, the

‘Jacket’, ‘Hoody’ guilty of double murder

testimony and statement of an anonymous witness who said Dunbar confessed to him, while they were in a prison cell, that he killed the brothers.

The Crown’s case also included bloody clothing found in Francis and Douglas possession, phone records of conversations between Dunbar and Douglas, Dunbar and Francis, and Francis and Danroy, prior to the incident, as well DNA evidence.

All three suspects were arrested on the day of the incident shortly after the bodies were found.

Douglas and Francis co-operated with the police and took the investigators to where the brothers had entered Francis’ van at Sion Hill, the route the van drove where the brothers were shot, and where the bodies were dumped.

Douglas also gave a statement to the police, during an electronic interview narrating what happened. He said Dunbar told him he was going on a scene, and asked him (Douglas) to go with him.

Electronic interviews

Responding to questions from the lead investigator, Inspector Atland Browne, during the interview, Douglas said he did not know what Dunbar and Francis were going to do, but he (Douglas) went with them because Francis had a relationship with his (Douglas) niece.

Douglas identified Dunbar as the shooter and said he (Douglas) assisted in dumping one of the bodies and helping Francis to clean the van after they journeyed back to Rillan Hill following the incident.

But Dunbar told the police, during his interview, that he never went on any scene with Douglas and Francis. He said he was home at Rillan Hill for the entire day. The only time he left home was to go on the bloc where the police later arrested him. He said he knew Francis’ van, but could not recall ever driving in it.

No lawyer was present when Dunbar was being interviewed. According to Inspector Browne, Dunbar said he did not need a lawyer, as he could handle things himself.

“I was not there. I have no knowledge of that”, Dunbar insisted, during the interview.

When Inspector Browne asked him whether he had told Richard Francis, during a telephone conversation, after the brothers were killed, that “two men were killed, so you have to pay double”, Dunbar said, “I have no knowledge of that”.

While Douglas and Francis had

allowed the police to take blood samples from them to be analyzed, Dunbar refused.

However, DNA evidence revealed that a swab taken from a phone which the police had taken from Dunbar when he was arrested, had a profile match of the DNA extracted from Danroy Cozier.

Both Dunbar and Douglas opted not to give evidence from the dock, and Dunbar did not call any witnesses to support his case. Douglas called his mother, Jennifer Douglas, attorneys Jomo Thomas and Ronald Marks, and Dr. Nadja Peters.

Crown’s closing submissions

In his closing submissions, the attorney for the Crown, Richie Maitland took the Jury through the evidence and asked them to disregard any tactics the defense might seek to bring. He described the evidence of the anonymous witness as compelling.

Maitland did not deny that the anonymous witness had a conviction for robbery and said the defense would seek to use this to discredit the evidence, but Maitland said that the witness had no conviction for deception, and there was no reason why his evidence should not be believed. He noted that there was no evidence, even from Douglas himself to say that Douglas was beaten or promised anything to give the statement. He highlighted the DNA evidence linking the men to the crimes, and the phone records of their conversations prior to the incident. He also noted that evidence revealed that a spent shell was recovered in the dashboard of Francis’ van.

Maitland concluded that Francis organized the hit, Dunbar was the main man for the job, and Douglas was Dunbar’s ‘wingman’.

He said Douglas had knowledge of the plan, he helped to dump the bodies and helped Francis clean the vehicle. He said Francis thought it was cheaper to hire a killer, rather than to fix Danroy’s vehicle.

Williams’ defence submissions

In his closing arguments, Dunbar’s lawyer Carl Williams took issue with the DNA evidence, stressing the issue of possible contamination. He noted that inspector Nolan Dalaway had said, in his evidence, that he handled the phone he took from Dunbar with his bare hands, and the lawyer argued that nobody knew how and when that blood got on Dunbar’s phone.

Williams’s described the Crown’s case as a movie which he (Williams) named, “We going to hell for him”.

He told the Jury, “Don’t allow the movie to move you away from the fact that there was no evidence to show that Dunbar was in that vehicle which was shown in Court (Francis’ van).

“What is the evidence to show that Schemel Dunbar committed these murders, the evidence of a robber who gave you a wrong date?”

The Crown never brought a ballistic expert to this Court, and there is no evidence of any search for guns, no evidence of any guns found.

Connell’s defence submissions

Douglas’ lawyer Grant Connell described the double murder as, “one of the most savage crimes that cast a dark cloud over the country on May 4, 2017”. But he told the Jury they must look at the role Douglas played.

“He was not part of the joint enterprise”, Connell contended. The lawyer pointed out that in the second electronic interview, when Inspector Browne asked Douglas if he knew what Dunbar and Francis was going to do, Douglas replied, “Me nah bin know whey dem gwine do. Because me and Richard ah one, da why me chose for go in de van, because Richard dey with one ah me niece”.

Connell said Douglas went on to tell the police what transpired in the van. Connell said that Douglas’ actions before the act of “savagery” unfolded, did not appear as if he knew what was going to happen.

“It is clear, however, that after the brothers were shot, he (Douglas) was given instructions to help remove a body, and with a gun present, in these circumstances, who would not”, Connell told the Jury. He added that there was also evidence of Douglas helping to wash the van, but those actions were after the murder occurred, and there could have been an alternative charge of, ‘assisting offenders’, but the Crown made no mention of it.

Connell also argued that Douglas’ first lawyer in this matter, Jomo Thomas, walked out of the Interview room, during the first interview the police conducted with Douglas, and Douglas’ request for Thomas to return was not facilitated by the police.

Connell further noted that Inspector Browne said in his evidence that Douglas complained to him (Browne) that the police had struck him, and was taken to the hospital, but according to Connell, the only evidence provided to the defense was that Douglas was fit for incarceration, which was also the only evidence the Crown said they received.

Connell had asked the Court to summon Dr. Alitha Hull, attached to the Milton Cato Memorial Hospital, but she was out of state.

Connell also sought to have Hospital Administrator D. Grace Walters and Dr. Franklyn summoned, but they were not available. The only medical doctor who testified for the defense was Dr. Nadja Peters, but she was in no position to assist Connell with the records regarding his client.

Schemel ‘Jacket’ Dunbar was established during the hearing as having been the one who actually shot the victims.

Kendine ‘Hoody’ Douglas assisted in burying the bodies at Sion Hill Bay.

Dominica served by high-class health services

THE DOMINICACHINA FRIENDSHIP HOSPITALoffers a number of highclass and modern services.

There is no telling Dominica’s Prime Minister, Roosevelt Skerrit, anything different and he reiterated this during a recent press conference.

And as for some of the services Dominica’s primary tertiary level health care institution offers, the prime Minister alluded to last December when he highlighted that the hospital was now capable of offering cancer treatments that used to be inaccessible in the small island nation.

“I was told that Director of PAHO (Pan American Health Organization), Dr. Carissa Etienne, spoke highly of the project. She said these are world class services, some of which are not available in the OECS (Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States) and even the wider Caribbean in terms of the public health sector,” Skerrit said then.

At this press conference Skerrit also stated that “the government had introduced diagnostic tests in the hospital at Portsmouth constituency of Dominica.”

In addition to the actual services, the Hospital also extends free medical care to patients 16-18 years old.

“There’s a policy in place in the Dominica government that people who are within the age of 16 to 18 would be provided with free medical care,” Skerrit said, adding that the policy won’t change until the administration decides so to do.

This policy, the Prime Minister said, was in keeping with the international requirements, ensuring that “every citizen has access to medical care irrespective of their economic circumstances.”

And when it came to answering questions from the public about why certain individuals continue to seek medical care abroad, in spite of the services already made available at the Dominica-China Friendship Hospital, Skerrit lamented that the awareness about the hospital’s capability as a state-of-the-art medical institution on the island was inadequate.

In fact, Skerrit admitted that Part of Dominica’s plans is to become the world’s first climate-resilient nation by constructing more state-of-the-art healthcare institutions and facilities throughout the island.

In time, all Dominicans will learn of and avail themselves of the services offered by the overall health services, seemed to have been what the prime minister was implying. (Source: Caribbean News Now)

Two benefit from BBO assistance

WHEN IT COMES TO FULFILLING A COMMITMENT, it is not only a matter of what, when and where, but moreso the extent to which they can fulfill that commitment and even go beyond.

This is what drives the BECKET BENEFIT ORGANIZATION (BBO) which, last Tuesday evening, June 13, at the Roman Catholic Centre in Layou, demonstrated once again that it adheres to its word and makes tangible its commitment.

Last Tuesday, the BBO presented cheques, each in an amount of EC$5,670.00, to relatives of two senior residents of Layou — Mrs. Lavern ‘Joy’ Audain and Mr. Palmore ‘Sproddy’ Young.

Mrs. Audain and Mr. Young are both stroke victims and the BBO assistance is in keeping with the organisation’s mission/purpose of assisting with medical costs for those in need. The amounts donated, and which were acknowledged on the evening by relatives of the recipients, are meant to assist with prescription, home care and thrice weekly therapy

costs.

Addressing the presentation evening, Founder and Advisor of BBO, Alston BECKET Cyrus D.Litt.H, commended the organisation’s membership for their “hard work” in ensuring that a barbeque, dubbed “AN EVENT FOR JOY AND SPODDY” was executed without any major setbacks and.

It is from funds raised from this single event that the BBO was able to make the donations to the two persons concerned, and BECKET underscored that this was all the more possible because of the teamwork.

“The BBO is all about the strength of its members working as a team,” he emphasized.

Notwithstanding the support that the BBO has been able to solicit from corporate and individual sources,

funds to generate its outreach programmes are in the main raised through its own fund-raising efforts.

Keeping in this vein, and as the organisation looks to fulfil another of its annual commitments of providing support for successful CPEA students from Layou, the BBO will mount a “Soup, Pelau & Barbeque Pork Riblet Sale’ on Saturday 1st July at the Melville’s Lot, Velox Corner. About the BBO

The Layou-based Becket Benefit Organization (BBO) was formalized following a general meeting of January 16, 2015.

According to its profile, “the BBO aims to engender ‘..love, peace and unity within the community of Layou,’ through, ‘…assisting, guiding and supporting the community in health, education, sports and culture, social services, disaster and the environment”.

One of the first recipients of support from the BBO was Ms. Patricia ‘Patsy’ Matthews of Layou, who was assisted with obtaining vital medical service overseas.

Da Silva celebrates what he hopes will be the first victory in the soca arena.

New South Leeward Soca Monarch: Wajang Time!

competitors including Omarion ‘Marlo’ Benn who, from all accounts, was the frontrunner going into the competition on June 03, at the Campden Park hard court, with his popular number ‘Horn’.

Speaking with THE VINCENTIAN after been crowned, an elated ‘Shatta’ said his preparation for the soca monarch was last minute, and before taking the stage he felt nervous as he watched the other competitors perform.

‘Shatta’ admitted there was one performance in particular that he thought could have won but he put everything behind him when he took the stage as the last competitor.

He was encouraged by the response from the crowd. “I say boy, the crowd love me, them love me,” said Da Silva as he relived his debut performance in front of “such a large crowd.”

When it was over, ‘Shatta’ said he felt his chances of winning had improved and he was buoyed by the favorable feedback from friends backstage.

Wajang Soca

‘Shatta’ is part of a growing number of young soca artistes who have embraced what is termed ‘Wajang Soca, a fast pace soca that fits an accompanying ‘Wajang dance’.

The style was developed and popularized by soca artiste ‘Dat C DQ’.

“‘Dat C’ is who really push it through…

‘Wajang Soca’ is bare speed,” ‘Shatta’ explained.

The former student of the St. Vincent Grammar School and the SVG Community College, now King of South Leeward soca, said he felt happy when it was announced in the wee hours of Monday, that he was the winner.

He went further saying that “It was a good feeling because you could see like ‘Dat C’, who is like a father figure, you see water coming out he eyes, so you mek he proud.”

He said that it was fitting that someone could win the South Leeward Soca monarch with a ‘Wajang Soca’, given that this year marks 10 years of ‘Wajang soca’.

And as for the future, “It’s just to keep the movement now because we trying to go global,” ‘Shatta’ shared, adding almost in the same breath that his family members who were concerned with him taking up music, are now proud of him.

As for his winning song, he explained that the song developed from 2020 and it was only after a talent show this year, he got to understand there was a song called, ‘Long fo see town’.

‘Dat C DQ’ told THE VINCENTIAN that he was happy with Da Silva and he felt proud that the youth is embracing the ‘Wajang’ movement. (KH)

Where’s the productive political dialogue?

THERE ARE MANY WHOSE first reaction to this piece would be: “Why worry? Elections fever is in the air and the political beasts have been set among us.”

That may be so for there is enough evidence to ‘conclude’ that the parties are ready to rumble in a way that will be coloured by an intensity of jabbing, body swerving and the occasional upper cut.

But amidst all the banter and canter we must reflect on the reality of our politics. The very adversarial nature of our political culture leaves little room for genuine, constructive public discourse that, ideally, should characterise our democracy and parliamentary system year round and inform any election campaign.

Sadly, both in and out of the Parliament/House of Assembly, we wrangle because our political leaders and politicians believe they must do so and we, like the ‘loyals’ we are, follow suit. Why, because this is what our adversarial political culture demands. The end result of this sad reflection is that it leaves little room for the constructive public discourse involving all political entities and persuasions, that should be taking place during the transition to another election and thereafter.

And while we lament the state of our politics we will be the first to admit that the politically partisan wrangling hogs the spotlight and we, the electorate, lap it up as political banter and piccong, not realizing that those who lead and those who aspire so to do are merely entertaining us and not, if the truth be told, offering anything of real substance. To win a vote, hold a rally laced with highpriced soca and dance hall artistes, punctuated with ‘rallying cries and slogans’ and idiolising of the political leader.

So while partisan wrangling hogs the spotlight, the people of the nation of SVG are pushed into the background. We become commodities to be bought and traded (literally) with little regard if any for our humanity, our self-esteem, our self-worth and dignity and the fact that we are all God’s creations.

Things you can do to get worker’s support

This push to the background means that certain safeguards are let done and we open ourselves to social ills and shortcomings that are obviously of no benefit to us citizens directly affected by the burdensome economic times.

So as we give into, for example, crime as being a “natural” consequence of our maturing, we fail to make demands because there is no mechanism for genuine public discourse.

While crime spirals hopefully not beyond the edge of no control, government and opposition are yet to sit down to discuss the issue thereby exacerbating the already widening chasm among a people dictated to by a two-party system.

Take it or leave it, another general election is not far off. The major parties have already given indication that their processes that will determine whether there are any major changes in candidate have already been activated.

But there is an opportunity now, as has been the case before every general election, for more responsible, fruitful discussions about what will be ushered in with the next election.

It is important for us voters to understand the expanded range of responsibilities for the men and women who will be vying to become parliamentary representatives and members of the highest law-making body in the land.

Experience (to include a track record especially if a persons is an incumbent), qualifications and character, emphasis on integrity and morality, will have to be carefully weighed, as, in the new dispensation, successful candidates will be employed full-time and put in charge of large budgets and significant resources, and will be co-ordinating key services on our behalf; mammoth responsibilities that we have been guilty of deferring to our representatives without any checks and balances.

So much more progress could be made if we demand that efforts are made by those holding office and seeking office, to lift the quality of the debate on crucial political issues through genuine public discourse.

A FEW WEEKS AGO,the leader of the NDP asked our Trade Unions to join them in “bringing this wicked government down.” I will not infer anything nefarious or subversive in your call to action, Dr. Friday, and was going to leave your request alone and hope for the best, but then I remembered the old saying, “A sin is not just the doing of bad, but also the failure of doing good.”

So, let me offer some simple suggestions to you, Dr. Friday, about what you can do for the worker in SVG that would make them more inclined to entrust you with the power to govern. Your party can take a stand on the worker’s right to organize. For example, politically, you have two options: Do you and the NDP think that SVG should be a “Right to Work Nation”? If you are, please tell us what you mean by that. Are you on the side of the workers or the business and industry sector? Do you feel that with minimum oversight by the labor department, businesses should have the right to hire and dismiss at will? If your party feels this way, please let us know. In theory, there is nothing wrong with that position.

Alternatively, you could advocate for the worker’s right to organize and negotiate a Union Security Contract. Put another way, once a union is democratically elected to serve and represent the workers and secure a collective bargaining agreement with an organization (employer), the union represents all employees and, therefore, all workers should pay fees or dues. A Union Security Contract position will require the company or the government to recognize a trade union as the bargaining agent on behalf of all the workers, after a majority vote. It also requires the employer to collect fees from all employees represented under the contract. However, the fees/dues for those not supporting the union will be required to pay may be reduced to only the cost of contract negotiations. This reduced fee will not give those employees full union benefits. Full membership in the union is still an individual choice. You could advocate for all union members to be eligible for a union organize tax-exempt

deferred benefit pension plan for its members. If you think that the NIS is not being correctly managed, now is the time to step up and advocate that unions be given the right to opt out of NIS and develop an alternative insurance plan. These ideas, Dr. Friday, are ways to show you support unions, and if they agree with you, they will vote you into office.

As the leader of the political party sitting at the table, albeit in opposition, you should advocate for an increase in the minimum wage for all Vincentian workers and be specific about your expectations. Only God knows how some of our people are making ends meet with the kind of pay some of our full-time workers receive.

Comrade Renrick Rose spent the last three weeks reminding us of a particular uncomfortable period in our history in another newspaper. I am not disputing any of his utterances. What he did not say was the assassination of the Attorney General Cecil Eric Rawle was viewed by many as an attempt to destabilize the government. At least that’s how the government at the time justified the “lockdown,” and by the way, that was the beginning of the militarization of the police department.

In our current violent environment, I would say be careful what you ask of our people. I cannot help but remember an interaction I had a few months ago in Kingstown that left me dumbfounded and at a loss for words. While standing at the license office wearing a yellow Brazil soccer shirt, a stranger approached me with a phrase unfamiliar to me at the time, “Label Love.” She waited for a response, and when she got nothing from me, she walked off, muttering something in frustration. It was about five minutes later. I realized what it meant and what she was trying to do to me.

In our increasingly polarized society, I could only hope that the union sticks to advocating for better working conditions and benefits and leave the business of government change to the political parties.

Noticeably, there were clubs which were always among the top four for years and were fighting to avoid being relegated. For example, Besco finished 8th, Sion Hill 7th, and Avenues United 5th.

Congratulations to the champion and also their coaching staff.

The standard of soccer and players has fallen. What could have caused this drastic fall in a time when these clubs are getting financial and technical assistance from FIFA? Such needs to be investigated.

Ill-discipline was a major factor in the 2023 Season. Players and teams were punished while refereeing left much to be desired. This was strengthened by VC3 TV and their commentators who were helpful with their analysis.

Many new and young players represented clubs, and most were not skillful technically or fit, and their inexperience was highlighted in their performances, impeding the efforts of their tactical moves, including when having possession, especially in transition.

In order to perfect skills and techniques players must first prepare their bodies physically - (flexibility, dexterity, agility, and stamina), only then can players perform the “physical movements” that the technical/skills aspects of the game require.

The entire team and moreso the core which must or has to play every game, needs to become soccer fit. Five minutes warm-up is not fitness. Then they need to practice together for their plans to become permanent and be perfect.

Soccer clubs and other sporting organizations should consider seriously forming players’/clubs’ associations where education, security, and health can be addressed.

The case of Hosni Chandler shows that there are many supporters. Given the number of active players, they can form a ‘blood donor bank’ to assist themselves, their families, and supporters of sports.

We just saw the response Hosni Chandler got, well just imagine if there were a players’ association. If the article makes sense, what else would it take to ‘let’s get it on’?

We have a professional soccer coach name Ezra Hendrickson. Please let us ask him to come home and speak to the nation about the requirements of team building. Why? If all of us know what is required, then we can encourage, support, and contribute what’s necessary. There are influential persons not involved in club affairs but who love and support sports. So, let’s get serious and start; by 2025 progress will be in sight.

Congratulations to our C License soccer coaches.

Welcome to both visitors and those returning home, I hope you enjoy the experiences of our national festival.

recommended exercise yet he does not avail himself of the many beaches in the country. Swimming pools are available but he hardly utilizes them. His diet is out of control and consequently he suffers from multiple noncommunicable diseases. He can have a nutritionist at his behest but he does not avail himself of this service. He flies first class to multiple countries overseas to get medical help for his disease conditions. It might not necessarily be cheaper to fly otherwise because he would take up two seats. Much could be saved if he controls his lifestyle diseases using diet and

exercise. The cost of the medications is quite substantial. His expensive car is changed and upgraded ever so often. This is what is most attractive to the women. Being a senior citizen, he is over the hill and has difficulty standing erect unaided. Yet he uses his sweet talk to entice several high maintenance women. Undoubtedly, they are in it only for the money. At a time when he should be preparing to meet his maker, he allows himself to be distracted by these adulterous women. The simple solution is for him to be faithful to his wife.

His gift of gab fools many into thinking that he can still function on his job, but any audit of what he is responsible for will show that conditions are much worse than when he took over, and things are not likely to improve anytime soon. Although he desires to perform at his best, his age, obesity, and illness are in the way. This truth is his best kept secret and he keeps under wraps all crucial information that might paint him in a bad light.

The number of other high maintenance men out there is not determined, but the tell-

tale signs are there. They occupy high offices in their organizations and are unable to produce to justify their remuneration.

ÂGAMESÊ/P.E today

DURING my days at primary school, when it was time for ‘Games’ (we call it Physical Education now), the boys went off to play cricket or football, depending on the season, and the girls went off to play netball if there was a court. I can’t speak about what happened at secondary school since I attended an ‘all boys’ school.

Times have changed. Not only has ‘GAMES’ graduated to Physical Education but CXC now

offers Physical Education as a subject up to the CSEC level… I am not certain if it’s is offered in some other subject-name at the CAPE level.

So, not only have we become more in keeping with what sports now means, but we have come to a point where the boys and girls are playing the same sports. Just look at football, cricket and even netball. We have national teams for all these sports. Yes, men are now playing netball,

believe it or not. We even hosted an international netball tournament for men not so long ago.

My concern, though, is if we are to build the sports for both male and female then we must expose both male and female to each sport at the primary school level. We are already doing that for some sports so why can’t we do it for football and cricket?

As it is, without cricket and football for

Resign Mr. Caesar

SHAMEon the Minister of Agriculture, Saboto Caesar, for allowing our economic backbone to be broken in his hand. Julian Francis gave the order, “Agriculture is a things of the past,’ and yes, we have seen the slow death of agriculture over twenty years. We are now importing over 140 products/produce that we used to grow. Minister Caesar recently declared that he was alarmed that SVG imported in 2020 agricultural commodities valued over $200 million. He further stated that government would have to put a “Regime” in place to assist local farmers. You see the blame game? He is blaming the government. Blame Ralph, Saboto, he gave you a dasheen vacuum package business in your constituency to manage.

You failed!!! And there are too many failures at your Ministry of Agriculture to warrant you continuing in the job as minister.

While I am at it, let say that praedial larceny must come to an end soon. The problem of food security can only be solved by firing the Agriculture Minister and employing a qualified person.

The local, regional and international markets are in high demand for our produce and products.

We are calling on the Minister of Agriculture, Saboto Caesar, to resign or an earlier than usual election be called so he can be removed.

Too much processed, slow-poisoning food is imported into the Land of the Blessed. The minister is high, we want to see daylight.

the girls at the very basic level and ongoing, I wonder where and how we arrive at female cricketers and footballers to play in national tournaments?

I mean, when it’s times for ‘GAMES’/PE, let the girls and boys involve themselves equally in cricket and football, and all the other sports (volleyball, basketball, etc.) that we should be encouraging at the school level.

Just a thought after listening to the president of the SVG Netball Association on last Saturday night’s “Let’s Talk Sports’ on Radio 705.

PEOPLE ARE ASKING:

* Why couldn’t the NDP leadership handle the recent internal static that resulted in fallout that could hurt their support among the youth?

* Could somebody please report to the nation about what is really happening at the quarry project in Richmond? For example, could somebody say how much, if any stone/aggregate has been mined to date?

* And what is this about Rain Forest selling fish and other products on the local market? Is rain Forest now importing shrimp? Were more bites of the cherry promised to the Butch Stuart clan than we were told?

* Is there anybody looking into the blocking of roads to beaches in Canouan?

* Why is the ULP so afraid of Integrity Legislation? What is there to hide? What/who is there to protect?

* Is there no longer a minimum height requirement for persons entering the Police Force?

* Is it true that the CPEA results have to be first passed to the Cabinet before they are made public or made known to the schools? If so, could somebody give the rationale for this ‘step’?

Calypso instead of the diaspora

(Editor’s Note: This was the Editorial column in the May 23, 2013 edition of THE VINCENTIAN. We thought it would provide some balance to certain developments here in 2023.)

THIS COLUMNwas leaning towards highlighting (again) the issue of the Vincentian Diaspora, especially in light of the Prime Minister’s admonishment of those “in voluntary exile;” those who have never “run a fowl coop,” have “no interest in setting back foot in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, but just want to create mischief.”

But ‘better’ judgement prevailed and we, instead, refer readers to an article on page 12 of this issue.

In so doing, this column has acquiesced to a cluster of sentiments expressed regarding what we might expect as far as censorship of this year’s calypso offerings is concerned.

It appears that ardent calypso enthusiasts here, on listening to those radio stations which have released some of the calypsos for 2013, are fearful that, given what has prevailed in the recent past, some calypsonians cannot expect air play on some radio stations, and they can expect that pressure will be brought on others who do not follow suit.

This is indicative of what can be termed the ‘new culture’ that watchdogs the real culture.

These sentiments cannot be simply brushed aside, since there is no doubt that in the past, the ‘words’ in some calypsos have aroused the ire of authorities here, and there have been public pronouncements made about those calypsonians, resulting in unwarranted division among a fraternity that we cherish (conveniently it seems) as being the mirror of both accomplishments and disappointments of society.

It is clear that those calypsos that have received the rebuke and censorship of those whose ire they have aroused, have been, in the main, songs of a political nature, not to disregard those social commentaries that have provoked leaders and authorities in other spheres of life here.

The danger, purported by many of those who have expressed concern, is that soon the ruling political regime will move, if they have not already, towards setting down guidelines for state-supported (CDC) competitions.

When and if that happens, expect that the regime would withdraw financial support for competitions at which calypsos they deem as ‘unbecoming’ are sung.

There are many who claim that already there are subtle means that may have already been employed, to influence the non-selection of certain songs and singers for advancement through those competitions. What, therefore, is there to stop the next step of withdrawing support?

Now, no responsible, no right thinking person or commentator,

regardless of how much he loves calypso and would want to protect its cherished role in society, would support lyrics, a song, that infer imputation of impropriety and deceit in a person of high public standing.

Calypsoninas are not above the law, and therefore, must be respectful of the tenets, especially as they relate to libel and slander.

But history has shown that calypsonians have always been on the cutting edge of expressing in words and music what they perceive as controversial behavior by certain publicly profiled persons.

What is lacking today, is the craft and skill which characterized those calypsos of old.

Dr. Hollis Liverpool, irrefutably one of the leading voices on the art form, and himself a controversial calypsonian of the highest order, is on record as saying that while he will “never support prime ministerial or ministerial censorship of political calypsos,” he cautions calypsonians not to use their compositions to “libel, slander and defame persons.”

This is the challenge. Can calypso and calypso writers hone their skills so that what is produced and offered as a calypso is a work of art and not malice?

It is one thing to mirror society, it is another thing when calypsonians simply pander to the crowd.

This is not a slight of any calypsonian or groups of calysonians but rather a thought on which to ponder: To ‘beat back’ any thoughts they think the administration may have of censoring calypsos, they (calypsonians) should consider returning to the rudiments of calypso compositions and delivery.

On another hand, calypsonians, regardless of their political preferences, must not allow themselves to be used as political means to a political end. They will defeat their treasured role, compromise the sacrifice of their forerunners, if they succumb to a political agenda and worse, to what they perceived to be the sentiments of the crowd.

Admittedly, the very thought that there might be some bent on ‘controlling’ calypso, is a scary consideration.

So, while this is a call for calypsonians and calypso writers to be craftier in their compositions, it is also something of a warning to those who might be harboring thoughts of censorship.

It is instructive that the latter reflects on what Brother Resistance, a former president of the Trinidad and Tobago Unified Calypsonians Organisation, said: “There have always been attempts to censor the art form, but our history has shown it has never been successful. Government cannot silence the calypso singers, because they are the voice of the people.”

Agriculture – an important pillar of economic development

(Pt. 2)

AGRICULTUREhas been the backbone of the economy of St. Vincent and the Grenadines for its entire existence. But, the present administration seems to have lost faith in agriculture. They pay lip service to it and they do not put resources in place. They have no plan or objectives for the next ten (10) to fifteen (15) years to rebuild agriculture.

President of the New Democratic Party, Honourable Dr. Godwin Friday, made the following remarks on his weekly radio programme: “They talk a lot about diversifying around bananas, but they have done nothing to make that happen. All of a sudden, I saw a news release where the Minister of Agriculture was talking about hotels coming and we have to raise the production of local produce because there is going to be a greater demand for those produce here in St. Vincent and the Grenadines and he wants to make sure that they are supplied here and are not imported. Ask him, what has he been doing to make that happen? Ask him, what has he been doing to get the fisherfolk organised so they can provide seafood here for the establishments that he has been bragging about? Ask him, what has he done to reassure the farmers of this country that the government has their interest at heart and they know what they are doing to rebuild agriculture?

Sobato Caesar is failing as the Minister of Agriculture because agriculture continues to decline as a percentage of our Gross Domestic Product and in terms of what the government puts into it from our National Budget to revive it. If you are not going to invest in it, then it is going to decline.

There are many things that people have pointed out that needs to be done which are simply not being done. What they are talking about is a container here and there that they want to export, whether its dasheen one day, plantain another day and fish the next day. You cannot build an economy based on this kind of haphazard and ad hoc approach to the development of this vital pillar.

We have said that agriculture is an essential pillar of our economy. We are going to continue to develop ideas so that they are front and centre in the program for the future of this country and of the New Democratic Party. The manifesto that we are preparing for the next general elections will reflect that. But understand this; we are going to always look for the best and the most effective ways of delivering programs. When we put something in our manifesto, it tells you that we are going to do it. If we find that there are better ways, we would use what we have there and expand on it as we go forward, as we learn more.

Part of the learning process is to hear from the people, to hear from the farmers, to hear from people who are interested in agriculture. Where is the Marketing Board? Where is the National Development Bank to provide credit to farmers? How do the farmers get input? How are they going to market their commodities? Who is going to take the risk when they plant their crops and they reap six (6)

months or nine (9) months later? Who is going to tell them that the market conditions on which they planted are going to exist nine (9) months later? Why should the farmers take all the risk? There has to be a mechanism to help even out those bumps and to make sure that farming is viable?”

The following is a release by the NDP on agriculture: President of the NDP and Leader of the Opposition, the Honourable Dr. Godwin Friday, has visited Kingstown Vegetable Markets to highlight the importance of the agricultural sector, as a pillar of the economy.

The visit comes through following Dr. Friday’s speech at the NDP Hope Rally, in which he offered hope by building an economy that will create more and better jobs. The economic plan is centred on four pillars, — agriculture, tourism, the blue economy and the new economy.

Dr. Friday and other members of the NDP will be making a number of visits to farmers to listen to them and discuss the challenges they face.

As part of the Dr. Friday’s plan to make agriculture a pillar of the economy, the NDP would boost investment in the sector and create much-needed jobs for persons across the country.

The plan to rebuild agriculture includes:

* Develop a cooperative system to help farmers purchase inputs at lower cost;

* Provide financing for new equipment to make farmers more productive;

* Focus on developing high-value crops;

* Increase domestic markets by encouraging hotels to buy local produce;

* Zero tolerance for praedial larceny;

* Develop our Agro Processing Sector with a focus on overseas markets ensuring there are sustainable export markets abroad;

* Assist farmers to engage in organic farming to fetch higher prices for their produce;

* Develop a Marketing Agency to market farm produce;

Our agricultural plan will ensure that there is a sustainable and efficient food security system, which will be geared towards a significant reduction in our food import bill.

Dr. Friday has said, “Under an NDP Government, agriculture will play a vital part in growing our economy. Agriculture is part of our brighter future.”

Senator Israel Bruce the Party’s shadow minister for Agriculture said: “Agriculture is a key part of the NDP’s plan to build the economy by getting more goods to markets and increasing export. This will create many more jobs, directly and indirectly.”

The NDP is committed to reversing growing unemployment in St. Vincent and the Grenadines by providing the skills and opportunities young people need to thrive here.

Memories of George ‘Black Magic’ Phillips (1928-1996)

“Once you can laugh at your own weaknesses, you can move forward. Comedy breaks down walls. It opens up people. If you’re good, you can fill up those openings with something positive. Maybe you can combat some of the ugliness in the world.” — Goldie Hawn (born 1945) – American actress, producer, dancer and singer.

THE LATE GEORGE PHILLIPS (19281996) had developed a unique and desirable ability to laugh at his weaknesses or shortcomings. George was an unusual positive influence on those who were fortunate enough to meet and interact with him. This therefore explains why the Rotary Club of St. Vincent has named its fourth form excellence programme “The George Phillips Excellence Award” in honour of this outstanding son-of-the-soil. This year’s ceremony was held at the Methodist Church Hall in Kingstown on Wednesday, 7th June and was sponsored by East Caribbean Group of Companies, Coreas Hazells Inc., Coreas Distribution Limited, Grenadines Airways, Bank of St. Vincent and the Grenadines (BOSVG), Jaden Inc., St. Vincent Brewery Limited, Flow, and BDO. Twenty-seven (27) fourth form students from secondary schools throughout St. Vincent and the Grenadines were recognized for their academic achievements, deportment, and for portraying principles such as honesty, integrity, thankfulness, kindness, helpfulness, etc. They, along with a teacher and a parent, were treated to lunch and provided with various gifts from sponsors such as Flow who donated two years’ free Internet access, and BOSVG who established a savings account for each student with an opening balance of one hundred dollars. The feature speaker was Mrs. LaTeisha Sandy-Marks, Director of the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU). One of George’s sons, Dorian Phillips, a former national goalkeeper, was on hand to witness the presentations.

George Phillips was born on January 1, 1928. He attended the St. Vincent Grammar School where he was an excellent scholar and outstanding athlete. He migrated to Canada after completing his secondary education in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. He attended the University of Guelph in Ontario and excelled as an outstanding athlete. While there, he also played soccer and cricket at a national level and captained the Canadian Cricket Team on several occasions.

Many of his friends affectionately referred to him as “Black Magic”. This was partly due to the dark pigmentation of his skin and in recognition of his outstanding athletic ability and determination to succeed against all odds. He was known to have played sports with a broken arm and a broken ankle and pushed himself to the limits to achieve his goals. His philosophy reflected his belief that even when life’s challenges appeared to be insurmountable we must not give in too easily.

Conversely, at times like these we

need to dig deep within ourselves to find the courage to press on — regardless to the pain and setbacks that we face. He always believed that he could convert “stumbling blocks” to “stepping stones”.

George spent several years in Curacao and Aruba following his graduation from the University of Guelph. He broke several international high jump records while residing in the Dutch territories and fascinated audiences with his speed on the athletics track.

His studies then took him to England. He returned to the Caribbean and was stationed as an Agricultural Officer in Grenada after completing his post-graduate studies in London. He is still remembered for the significant role he played in designing and creating the Grenada National Zoo. British Zoo experts once described it as the best-designed zoo in the Commonwealth.

George returned to St. Vincent and the Grenadines and rekindled his keen interest in horticulture and found great satisfaction when caring for his dogs. He was particularly fond of the German Shepherd (Alsatian). His passion for sport resulted in him becoming an outstanding cricket radio commentator. He also was a Methodist Lay Preacher whose oratory skills beckoned listeners to pursue the principles of honesty, integrity, kindness, and so on.

George Phillips was the Charter President of the Rotary Club of St. Vincent and is remembered for the outstanding contributions he made to the Club and the nation. He was a very dedicated and patriotic citizen whose humour often provided invaluable entertainment to those fortunate to be in his presence. He was also very analytical in his approach to business in particular and life in general. This enabled him to function most effectively on the many Boards that he was frequently asked to serve on.

He always demonstrated a commitment to academic excellence and pursued avenues to gain scholarships for Vincentian nationals to attend tertiary institutions. However, he always challenged young persons to develop rounded lives. George believed that academic excellence was not all that there was to life. He felt that it was also necessary to develop the fundamental principles that revolve around courtesy, courage, helpfulness, respect, discipline, honesty, and mutual respect. His legacy lives on in the lives that he has touched and, through the George Phillips Excellence Award, he has passed the baton to the next generation of noble citizens.

needs to boost its economy and not rely on aid

THE RELIANCE ON AIDby the ULP regime as the engine for development is counterproductive. The greater the amount of aid SVG has received, the greater is the level of dependence, and the worse our economy has become. The way to make our people richer is economic development, driven by high quality education and trade, not aid.

In 2002, aid was $58m and the fiscal deficit was Nil. In 2015, aid massively increased to $168m, yet the economy was so much worse with a fiscal deficit of $143m. We have had another couple of years recently of massive aid inputs, including food aid. In the 2023 budget estimates, there was over $400m in grants and loans.

The problem with being an aid junkie, is that the ULP regime has lost its capacity to make our country strong. The addiction to aid makes government lazy, and they do very little to increase our country’s productivity and self-sufficiency. The consequence is a weak economy and an

increase in unemployment, poverty and crime — evident all around our country.

Aid and handouts from Taiwan and the super-rich of Mustique and Canouan are not making our economy strong. These entities must pay tax, because our economy is moving backwards, as is the increase in fiscal deficit since 2005 illustrates.

The Global Partnership for Education (GPE) says that for poor countries, it is vital to:

* increase education spending. The GPE encourages governments to commit between 15% and 20% of national budgets to education. In SVG for 2023, only $29.6m is allocated for education. This is only about 2% of the budget estimates for 2023. This is outrageously low. A Green government would pump at least 20% of the budget into education;

* increase the overall size of government budgets by stopping harmful tax exemptions to foreign

companies. Action Aid estimates that over $138 billion annually is given away unnecessarily in tax incentives to foreign companies by developing countries. A Green government would cut ties with Taiwan and tax the super-rich of Mustique and Canouan and set up a tuna fishing and canning industry. This will increase the government budget by hundreds of millions of dollars a year;

* spend more in primary education and help poor families to meet education costs. A Green government would make books and uniforms free for all children and build a university. Education should be free from preschool to university.

Trading value-added products is the way to expand the SVG economy. For example, 1lb of green coffee will earn a Ugandan coffee farmer approximately US$1, whilst roasters in developed countries sell the same coffee for approximately $8. This means that poor coffee-growing countries lose

US$7 per lb of added value, simply because they are not roasting and packaging the coffee.

Importing countries ‘add value’ to the coffee and make over 7 times as much money as the Ugandan coffee grower!

A Green government would help SVG businesses add value to their goods and focus on exporting processed goods and services. Our country must increase its economic output and GDP to about $5 billion. This is feasible if we cut ties with Taiwan, tax the super-rich of Mustique and Canouan, set up our own tuna fishing and canning industry and focus on valueadded products.

The only thing that makes people richer is economic development. Trade. This is how Singapore did it; this is how China is doing it. We must adopt the successful Singapore model of sustainable development and drive the economy with high quality education and trade, not aid.

Warrant Officer Ivan O’Neal BSc (Hons), MSc, MBA, Leader of SVG Green Party, strongly believes SVG must wean itself off aid.

Saying farewell to Leon ‘Slider’ Mc Kenzie

TODAYwe are gathered here to say farewell to one of our patriotic citizens whose life story is documentation of a sincere endeavor to make a positive

contribution to his society. Today we say farewell to Leon McKenzie.

Though I had known him for many years, it was in the last two or three years that we had been personally interacting, primarily by phone, as we shared our ideas, relative to the socioeconomic well-being of our country.

None of these conversations were without his references to the Bible which he scholarly presented, quoting

the relevant chapter and verse. That quality of spiritual grounding made him a special person to me.

From the mound on which I sit, as an active player in the traditional agricultural community, I must here document my disappointment, that in the evening of his life, our community was too impoverished, economically and intellectually, to respond positively, to the addressing of brother McKenzie’s needs. There was a few months ago, the distressing situation, where the vital area Health Clinic, could not be reached by phone so that he could access services.

It seems that we are in the season of losing men and women who had given conscientious service to our land, in their various fields of endeavor.

It would not be impertinent to draw to the attention of those of us here remaining, that we need to assert ourselves, in endeavouring to resist this cloud of blight which has been hovering over our land for some decades now.

It is clearly evident in the poverty, the widespread exhibition of neglect reflective of a lack of pride, as evidenced in the prevailing unhealthy condition of the drains and sidewalks of our capital. We can do better than this!

In his last year’s Christmas message, our Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves pronounced that this year was going to be the Year of RESPAIR. He said that “the agony of many of our citizens was reflected on their faces”. He appealed to all citizens to contribute to the effort. It is time to initiate the launching of that Repair programme!

During one of the conversations that brother ‘Slider’ McKenzie and I shared in recent months, I read to him these

lines:

“The Prominence of the Man Is little more lasting that the Shadow of a falling leaf The Man and the Leaf Are both on their wayTo the carpet of oblivion Into which, their predecessors Have already been absorbed When the Leaf has fallen

Who will take note of its shadow?

Were we not all young and Strong yesterday?

And today, are we not old and weak Or steadily becoming so? And must we not each face ultimately Indiscriminating jaws of Death?

Let us hope then, that the evil we have

Could be buried with our bones

So that the good we have done could persist

To map out a safe path

That posterity could follow with confidence

Always bearing in Mind

That the Voice of the People

Is not always, the voice of their God. His response to that was, “I don’t want the evil I have done to be buried near to my bones”.

I feel confident that his family will be strengthened to cope with their loss when they reflect on his life. May the rest of us Vincentians endeavour to conscientiously commence the laying of the platform which would provide support for the next generations, to manage the heavy burden of indebtedness we will certainly be leaving for them to cope with.

May our brother Leon ‘Slider’ McKenzie now Rest in Peace!

LeRoy

Mother-in-law woes

Dear George,

MY MOTHER-IN-LAWcame to visit our home for the first time since our marriage 18 months ago.  She only came to visit because my husband had come into some money and she wanted her share. My husband was not at home when she arrived.

George, from day one she made it clear she wanted nothing to do with me and did not attend our wedding, making it clear her son had made a mistake.

Back to when she visited. She hurled insults at me until my husband got home; then she told him how I was the one who was aggressive towards her. My husband, not asking for my side of the story, started abusing (verbally) me and gave me an ultimatum to either shape up or leave. I left.

He has been calling me for weeks now but I’m not going back there. Let him marry his mother. I’m just upset and not sure what my next move is.

Feeling

Abandoned.

Dear Feeling Abandoned,

It seems as though your husband has some growing up to do. He should have stood his ground and defended you and not let his mother think she has power over you and your marriage.

The time you have been apart should serve as a cooling off period. Use this opportunity to reopen the lines of communication and suggest that both of you see a marriage counsellor.

Both of you need to agree on boundary lines as it relates to your mother-in-law. Do not allow this hurdle to be the one to cripple your marriage but rather let it be one that would solidify and strengthen your relationship.

George.

Wife said: I am not a horse

Dear George,

HOW MANYtimes a week or month should a husband ask for sex from his wife? I’m tired of telling my husband I am not a horse and I have feelings.

I’m wondering which wife out there is having sex with her husband 4x4 times a week.

Tired.

Dear Tired,

It should not boil down to the setting up of a schedule that is written in stone. Each of you should have and practice equal consideration for one another. Working on the intimacy aspect of the relationship would help to influence the sexual aspect of things. Both of you should be working on the agenda of pleasing each other and this would be easier once there is genuine love in the relationship.

George.

CanÊt let go of any

Dear George,

I HAVEa girlfriend issue. I have two girlfriends at the same time.

The story is that after several disagreements with my girlfriend we agreed to go our separate ways. Two weeks after I met another girl and honestly was intending to make her permanent but complications set in.

My original girlfriend started turning it around and I could not bring myself to letting her go. Now I’m here with two women whom I’m in love with and cannot give either of them marching orders. Talk about a mess! Indecisive.

Dear Indecisive,

You cannot toy with the emotions of others. You need to make a

selection and not keep anyone hanging indefinitely, ASAP.

You already know what to expect from your first girl so maybe you can or should make the effort to work on that relationship. The decision is yours.

I must say, though, having two of them (at the same time) is not going to work so make your choice and it has to be clear. You will be respected in the long run for your honesty.

George.

Jadon Hamilton: A true Top Performer

ELEVEN-YEAR-OLD JADON HAMILTON of Belvedere, Brighton, the 2023 CPEA top performer and a student of the Windsor Primary School, put down an act that many would do well to emulate. His scores were: Math –97.5%; Language –99.28%; Science –96.67%; and Social Studies – 95%.

Even as he declared to THE VINCENTIAN that “It feels really good!” he unraveled scenarios that took him to his goal.

Motivated by his first and second place performances in Grade 5, in Grade 6 and the CPEA he aimed for the top place. “I was always working towards first, even during class tests,” he said, “I studied my work and I focused. I did extra classes on Saturdays and Sundays with Ocean’s Academy

INNISof the St. Mary’s Roman Catholic School placed 2nd for boys and 2nd overall in the recently concluded 2023 Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA).

Kole’s results were as follows: Mathematics, 97.3%; Language, 94.7%; Science, 94.7%; and Social Studies, 93.3%.

Speaking with THE VINCENTIAN upon the release of the results, Kole was adamant that time management played an important role in his success and will, for students who desire to do well.

Kole was understandably excited by his results but conceded, “I was a little bit surprised by them because I knew I would do well but to come second — that was quite surprising!”

focus on work. He posited that, “... a good work attitude creates focus and enables a student to complete the work and even do extremely well; while a bad attitude could create frustration with the least

problem, causing horrible results.”

With pertinent schedules put in place, Kole was able to factor in a workable programme which included off-study

and also past papers and online worksheets.”

He was not consumed only by academics. Science is his favourite subject, so he entered the Science Fair with his class and learned some pivotal lessons.

Jadon is a frontrunning swimmer with Blue Marlin Swim Club, and has represented St. Vincent and the Grenadines in regional championships, including the 2022 OECS Swimming Championships in St. Lucia, where he placed second in his age group.

Outside of school, he also attended a Science camp with MD Academy and was exposed to a number of issues within that field.

He was an active reader and pointed to the dedication of his Language teacher, Mrs.

Derna Peters, who actually stay after school to give extra help. “That helped my portfolio!” he opined. He advises students to pay attention in class and ask questions if they don’t understand.

He is clear that, “I am going to St. Vincent Grammar School. Students from there usually get the best grades. It’s ranked number one so I chose it.”

As for his career, he stated, “I’ve already decided that my profession is going to be something related to Science. I haven’t figured out which branch or area, but I’m guessing something like a marine biologist or an engineer.”

He advises students to pay attention in class and ask questions if they don’t understand.

Kajj Murray- Master organiser

ELEVEN-YEAR-OLD KAJJ MURRAY of the Windsor Primary School aced the Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA) placing 2nd for boys and 2nd overall. His scores were as follows: Math, 96.7%; Language, 97.9%; Science, 95%; and Social Studies, 98.3%.

Kajj, the son of Jeff and Anika Murray of Peter’s Hope, was closely aided by his Dad, who ensured Kajj began his journey of conquering the CPEA way back in Grade 5.

“When I was in Grade Five, I had a study timetable,” he explained, “I used to do two or three subjects everyday for five days of the week except Friday and Saturday. Every day if we got notes, I would just revise them; if not, I’d revise old notes. Then on Sunday, I revised all that I studied during the week.”

He told THE VINCENTIAN that with that level of organization, when test-time came it was easier without rushing anything. As time progressed, Kajj’s momentum increased then one week before the exam his parents told him it was time to stop studying, which he did, but continued practicing.

THE VINCENTIAN was heartened by Kajj’s confidence, the way he walked through his experiences and the admiration and respect he showed for his parents. It was clear that he

and his Dad were great buddies. His sense of organization is set to be transferred to the St. Vincent Grammar School. Beyond that, his future endeavours may only function as aspirations for the time being, but he has some in place. He posited, “I like Science and I want to be a Scientist, like a Chemist.”

His advice to other students: “To do well you have to put in the work; find what works for you- the same thing does not work for everyone; find something that helps you to study well, do your best and execute properly.”

Orion Trent John: An early indication of excellence

ORION TRENT JOHN is a son of the Caribbean. Whatever his heritage, Orion has his mind on being a Marine Biologist. Anything about the sea interests him with a passion.

As a student of the Fair Hall Primary School, Orion placed fourth for boys and fourth overall, in the 2023 Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA).

Son of Roxell and Indomatie John, Orion, who was born in Bermuda where his father served as a teacher for seven years, thanked his parents, teachers, and extended family — including his maternal grandparents and uncles in Mahaica, just outside East Coast Demerara in Guyanafor contributing to his success.

For the recent past, however, Orion has been nurtured by his father. They live at Dorsetshire Hill but his school at Fair Hall is near to the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Community College where his father works.

He is a sport enthusiast, fond of cricket, football, tennis, swimming and drawing. His

penchant for cricket could well be derived from his mother, Indomatie Goordial before her marriage, who played for West Indies Senior Cricket team as a teenager and represented the USA in 2010.

Signs of Orion’s ability came to the fore at the graduation ceremony staged by the Fair Hall Primary School before results were announced. He copped the awards for Mathematics and Social Studies, the Head Teacher’s, Peer Counsellor’s, Zero Hunger Fund awards and was Valedictorian.

JOSHUA CURTIS JR. GREAVES, eleven-year-old student of the St. Mary’s Roman Catholic School, placed 6th for boys and 6th overall in the 2023 CPEA, contributing to the 100% pass grade achieved from the eighty-six students who wrote the exams at that school.

His scores included Mathematics — 93.3%, Language — 93.3%, Science — 94.7%, and Social Studies — 92%.

He was “... excited, overjoyed, overwhelmed, every emotion you could think of, except sad,” he said about his results, but had one surprise: his aim focused on the top twenty instead of the top ten, “... but, coming closer to the exam I started believing in myself more and felt more at peace than anxious. I think that is what helped me.”

Joshua was clear that he did not encounter difficult academic challenges but told of a death in the family that had fazed him, “.... but I had to trust God and let Him take over because I might not have been able to push through at certain points, but I got to the finish line!”

Added to that, his mom explained, “We’d almost lost him, even before he was born. He has gone through many challenges,” and spoke of keeping him on a schedule — a balance between leisure and work.

KIMBERLY COMPTON cried when she got the results of her son Drez Lyf Compton from the recent Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment.

“I got emotional. I cried,” Kimberley confessed.

Drez placed fifth overall and for Boys. He scored 96 per cent in Language, his best performance. He considers this his favourite subject.

He was born in Brooklyn and came to St. Vincent as an infant. He currently resides at Gibson Corner, just outside capital city Kingstown. His performance keeps

Compton pays tribute to his parents and family structure for his success. He credits a number of teachers for their dedication. Some are: Laura Smart, Miss Penniston, Juliet Culzac, and Jeannette France.

The young Compton is an aspiring footballer, who looks up to Lionel Messi as a model. He plays for System Three

Kole Inniss: Time management is key

Continued from Page 17. times. And even with confidence in the different subject areas, he did extra lessons with class teachers, and worked with CPEA past papers and online worksheets. Little wonder that he found the entire exam “quite manageable.”

Kole had high praise for his Grades Five and Six teachers and his parents

who helped to reinforce the importance of managing time well.

He will attend the St. Vincent Grammar School and intends to properly manage his time being “a hard-working student who takes his work seriously and does not mess-around a lot”.

Kole is the son of Kenville and Kishanna Innis of Ottley Hall who have been very active and

But his journey continues. Joshua, the only child of educators Curtis and Bernadette Greaves of Queen’s Drive, heads to the St. Vincent Grammar School. He predicted, “I’m going to do hard work, I’m going to exceed my limit and I’m going to put my best foot forward so I could get to the finish line with a good mark and go to college then to university. I will have to leave it in the Lord’s hands from here because He is the one who brought me from birth to Grade Six, so I have to trust Him.”

They expressed surprise at his position but stated, “.. at the same time we are very grateful that his hard work has paid off.” They encouraged parents to build relationships with teachers, as open communication indicates parental interest and could encourage the child to try harder.

Julian De Freitas: Excited about learning more

IT IS ALL SMILESfor Julian DeFreitas. He placed 7th overall and 7th for boys in the 2023 Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA) with scores of 92 percent — Mathematics, 88 percent — English Language, 96 percent — Science and 94.5 percent Social Studies.

“I feel good, my scores — they got me here,” he told THE VINCENTIAN.

“I wasn’t expecting to get so far but I have to say everybody in my class did well,” the now former Sugar Mill Academy student added.

According to De Freitas, his success came through the hard work put in by his teachers at school and his lessons teacher, parents and older siblings.

Of course, he said that he commends himself for having paid

attention in class and remaining calm on the day of the exam.

And now, he said that he is more than ready for the next phase in his academic career — life in secondary school.

He was still undecided as to where he will spend the next five years of his life during secondary school, but said that his brothers are already attending secondary level institutions.

“I was told that secondary school is the place that people often find themselves and learn more for the future, so that is what I am excited about,” he said.

As for advice to future students writing the CPEA, De Freitas said that a lot of factors contributed to his success — but he said study hard, pay attention in class.

Gabrielle Tiffany DeFreitas: Surprised but not surprised

LOOK OUT FOR MORE SURPRISES from Gabriella

Tiffany DeFreitas. She placed first for girls and eighth overall in the recent Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA), which results were released last week Friday.

The Colonarie Primary School student admitted that she was not surprised being in the top ten, but she did not anticipate that she would share the number one spot.

Gabriella brought pride and joy to the North Central Windward constituency and was one of 14 students from Colonarie Government School who were successful in the 2023 CPEA.

Daughter of teachers Eustace and Barbara DeFreitas, Gabriella moved to Colonarie from Belle

Vue at Kindergarten level.

She enjoys playing the recorder and solving puzzles. The teaching influence occupies her mind, but she is “not sure,” about a career.

Gabriella praised teachers Irkeida Warrican and Thomas McDowald.

Warrican commended Gabriella on her performance and remarked: “She did very well.” For Warrican, Gabriella’s display was on the cards: “I was expecting her to do that well.”

Warrican described Gabriella as “quiet, and very determined.” The teacher pointed to Gabriella’s love for reading. (WKA)

Kaiden James: Ready for the next step

KAIDEN JAMESsaid that was in a state of shock after he discovered he had performed better than expected in the 2023 Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA) examinations.

Now as his performance has registered with him, he is elated.

James placed 10th overall, and 8th for boys with scores: Math 96 percent; English Language — 81 percent; Social Studies — 94 percent and Science — 92 percent.

He admitted that

because he often doubts his ability, he was not expecting to perform as well as he did.

He credits his success to work on multiple past papers and reviewing notes taken from school. But most importantly, he credited the staff at the Sugar Mill Academy for the effort he said they put with the students.

“They too put a lot of emphasis on past papers,” he said.

Not forgotten were his parents Kristina and Kentish James whom he recognized for the hard work they put in to

ensure his success.

Outside of academics, James said that he enjoys playing sports — namely basketball, football and table tennis, and he hopes to be able to play football on a more competitive level someday.

James will be attending the St. Vincent Grammar School and said that he is already looking forward to making new friends and facing the new challenges associated

And she not only successfully negotiated those challenges, but she did so to the extent that she earned a spot in the top 10 performers in the 2023 Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA).

Cato placed first for girls and 8th overall with 94.6 percent for Mathematics; 92 percent in Science; 88 percent in English Language and 90.6 percent in Social Studies.

The former Sugar Mill Academy student said that she and her family moved to St. Vincent and the Grenadines from Jamaica just about one year prior to her sitting the CPEA.

“It’s hard for anybody to adjust when you move, but everybody at Sugar Mill was welcoming so that made it a lot easier,” she said.

Cato explained that there was very little difference in the school work she had to cover, but admitted that she had a lot to complete in order to get herself ready for the CPEA, including completing the portfolio and other projects.

She admitted that the process to get her ready was very stressful — working on past papers and ensuring that she completed all that she was required to do.

But she was able to perform credibly and now she is relieved that the CPEA was finally over.

Cato was grateful to her family, parents Nateline and Robb Cato, teachers and all her friends for encouraging her.

She is now making plans to attend the Girls’ High School in September saying that she is looking forward to continuing from where she left off, making new friends and simply having fun. (DD)

Rotary Club recognises fourth formers

THE ROTARY CLUBof St. Vincent hosted yet another successful annual George Phillips Excellence Awards Ceremony, during which 27 fourth formers representing each Secondary School in St. Vincent and the Grenadines were recognized for their outstanding performance.

The students were selected based on the following criteria:

1. Outstanding academic performance,

2. Team leadership,

3. Commitment to discipline, and

4. Achievement in approved extra-curricular activities.

Over 50 parents and teachers were present to support their students who were awarded at a luncheon ceremony held at the Methodist Church Hall on Wednesday, June 7th, 2023.

The George Phillips Excellence Awards, named after the Charter President of the Rotary Club of St. Vincent, is a signature project of the Club for over 20 years, and has been instrumental in recognizing and stimulating a

culture of excellence throughout our local Secondary Schools. From its inception, this project has been executed in partnership with the Ministry of Education and National Reconciliation. The Ministry was represented at the event by Dr. Godwin James, Senior Education Officer, who brought brief remarks on behalf of the Ministry and commended the students on their achievements as recipients of the award.

This year’s featured address to the students was delivered by Mrs. LaTeisha SandyMarks, Director of the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) and member of the Rotary Club of St. Vincent. Sandy-Marks’ exhortation to the students was focused on the theme “On the other side of the unimaginable” which aligned well with Rotary International’s theme for 2022-2023 “Imagine Rotary”, leaving students with timely reminders to remain resilient in times of adversity, gentle

with themselves in the face of uncertainty, and courageous as they move into new phases of their development. Major sponsors of this project included the Bank of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, gifting each awardee with the opening of new savings accounts with a starting balance of EC$150.00 among other tokens; and FLOW, who sponsored each awardee with free broadband internet access for the next two years.

The Rotary Club of St. Vincent is also indebted to Island Sipz Water, ECGC, Jaden Inc., St. Vincent Brewery Limited, Coreas Distribution Limited, Coreas Hazells Inc., Grenadine Airways, Fanfare Events, BDO, and Dental Arts Clinic for their generous contributions to the project thereby ensuring its continued success.

The Rotary Club of St. Vincent remains committed to continuing this partnership with the Ministry of Education

and corporate SVG which has impacted and continues to impact so many lives. One of Rotary International’s areas of focus is Basic Education and Literacy, and the Rotary Club of St. Vincent intends to leverage its partnerships with stakeholders through mentorship and provision of opportunities for growth to secure the development of our nation’s youths and subsequently our future.

ten players including one female; each innings begins with 100 runs allotted to the batting team; five runs are deducted for the fall of each wicket; two runs awarded for each no-ball and each wide which are not rebowled; every six overs a new pair of batters must take the wicket.

In the actual field of play, Park Hill Government won the toss and opted to bat first. By the end of the first six overs they had posted 125 runs.

Rounder and MVP of the Finals - Nic-Quan Johnson of Park Hill Government School; Best Bowler- Terique Pollard of Owia Government School’ Best BatsmanJ’Shorn Johnney of South Rivers Methodist School; Best WicketKeeper- Amallie Lavia of Owia Government School; Best Female Player- Onesia Moore of South Rivers Methodist School.

The large crowd that turned out to witness the match made for an exciting day’s cricket which was also watched by Minister of SportsFrederick Stephenson, and Prime Minister and Parliamentary Representative for the area from which both teams come, Dr. Ralph Gonsalves.

PARK HILL GOVERNMENT

SCHOOLare the 2023 champions of primary schools’ cricket in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

They secured the title when they defeated South Rivers Methodist School by 21 runs in the final of the tournament that was played under

modified rules.

According to Deighton Butler, Co-ordinator of the Tournament, this was done to give “equal opportunity to bat the same number of overs in a game. It allows batter to develop proper batting technique as they don’t necessarily have to swipe trying to hit boundaries,

but bat properly and defend their wicket to avoid causing their team to lose runs. All in all, to allow for greater participation.”

Among the modifications were: games are 30 overs per innings and each side must bat their allotted overs; each side to field

Roban smashes his national 800m record

HANDAL ROBANtook more than one second off the all-time St. Vincent and the Grenadines Men’s 800m record, when he clocked 1:45.95 at the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division One Outdoor final, last Friday, June 9, in Austin Texas.

Competing at the Mike A. Meyers Stadium, Roban in his first year at Penn State University, erased a national record which he had himself established.

But there were more accolades for Roban at last Friday’s NCAA’s final, as he produced the fourthfastest time in school history.

His effort earned him his third NCAA bronze medal in as many outings.

Not done, Roban obtained an All American First Team honours, the first for Penn State University since 2018.

Additionally, Roban became the

first Penn State athlete since 2018, to medal in the same event in both the indoor and outdoor NCAA Championships in the same year.

As a 19-year-old, Roban became the national 800m record holder on August 20, 2022, at the North American, Central American and Caribbean Athletic Association (NACAC) Open Championships at the Freeport Stadium in the Bahamas, when he stopped the clock at 1:47.03.

At that meet, his recordbreaking run earned him a silver medal.

Roban is also the national Under-20 record holder in the 800m, the 1500m, as well as the holder of the national Indoor 600, 800 and 1000m records.

The champions were eventually dismissed for 196 runs. South Rivers replied with 175. While there were no outstanding batting displays, there were two five-wicket hauls: NicQuan Johnson of Park Hill 6 for 22, and Christian Horne of South Rivers 5 for 35.

On completion of the match, the following individual awards were presented: Best All

Largo Height bosses Sharpes Football

Largo Height beat Up in the Hole one-nil last Sunday night, June 11, at the Sharpes Playing Field, to win the Sharpes Nine-A-Side Football Competition.

And while the large crowd might have hoped for a more clear-cut decider, the match was won on an own-goal conceded Up In the Hole.

This after Jamol Yorke’s back header, was not read by custodian- Nathaniel Carrington.

It meant that largo height played unbeaten throughout the competition and duly took home the champion’s trophy, medals and $2000.

Up in the Hole had to settle for the $1200 second place prize money, a trophy and medals.

The two reached the final following contrasting wins in the semi-finals.

Largo Height saw off High Street 3-2 on penalties, after a stalemate in regulation time, while Up In the Hole had blanked Plan, 3-0. High Street went on to take the third place, when they edged Plan, 2-1 in the playoff that preceded last Sunday’s final. High Street collected $800 and a trophy.

Largo Height also collected most of the awards, as Jamal Duncan was adjudged the Best Goal Keeper, Jaheim Kirby the top goal scorer, and Cordel Theobalds was the MVP of the final and

ÂExperienceÊ looking to go all the way

Nyron Cumberbatch, captain of the Bom Bom Experience, is confident his team can take the title in this year’s Top Belair Progressive Organization (TBPO) Carib Football League.

This is Bom Bom Experience’s second year in the League but notwithstanding what some say ‘about their inexperience, Cumberbatch insists, “The expectation of the competition is high within the team. We just plan to go all the way. We have the confidence and we have the players with the momentum and self-belief, so we looking to carry everything to Bom Bom. The players’ attitude just right, the players them cool, and we are working hard to achieve our main objective.”

When asked about the other teams and who would be their biggest challenge, the confident captain avoided committing himself, preferring to say, “It have some good teams in the competition including my team but the way we are playing, I will back my team in every game.”

Buoyed by the success to date in the TBPO Carib Football League, the captain indicated that they will

be exploring the possibility of entering the team in other football competitions which, he emphasised, will further expose the players and keep them involved in positive activities.

MVP of the competition.

Jamol Yorke of Up In the Hole was voted Best Defender; ten year-old Shaquille Dublin, who played for fourth place Plan, was the youngest player in the competition and Chelsea was adjudged the Most Discipline Team.

Fifteen teams participated in the competition which commenced April 16.

Local cyclists set for Âbattle royaleÊ

THIS SATURDAY, June 17, and Sunday, June 18, are days set aside for the most anticipated event on the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Cycling Union’s calendar, the National Championships.

The two-stage

championships begin from 6am on Saturday with a Time Trial from Arnos Vale to Belvedere. Cyclists will ride off at one-minute intervals, as they compete in Juniors, Masters and Elite classes.

Then on Sunday, it

will be the Road Race, beginning at midday from the decommissioned ET Joshua Airport and ending at the Sion Hill Intersection.

Elite cyclists will complete 100 miles, where they will journey

from the starting point to Orange Hill, return to the Arnos Vale Round About and back to Orange Hill and finish at Sion Hill.

The Masters category will do 50 miles, making one loop from the start point to Orange Hill and to the finish line.

When the championships were held last year, Cammie Adams repeated his double take as he did in 2022, by winning the Time Trial and Road Race of the Elite segment.

Peter Durrant won the Masters Time Trial and Desron Bynoe took the Road Race.

Options

CRICKETERSACROSS THE GLOBE have another platform for their skills. The Global T20 Canada returns. It ends August 6, after 18 days of action involving six teams.

Those are Surrey Jaguars, Mississauga Panthers, Brampton Wolves, Vancouver Knights, Montreal Tigers, and Toronto Nationals.

Chris Gayle (Mississauga Panthers), along with Andre Russell, Carlos Brathwaite and Sherfane Rutherford (Montreal Tigers), complete the West Indian presence.

Observers label the return as a strain on the calendar. The question of loyalty to country with the composition of the teams. It might not be so severe on the West Indies, for its current crop of players have seemingly settled on their mode of operation.

The Canadian organisers are ensuring that their players are not entirely abandoned. This is another tournament in the West. Perhaps the Canadians will link with their hemispheric colleagues and broaden the base.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup has seen the Concacaf footprint.

The USA has linked with the West Indies Board and the ties are strengthening. With the Major League Cricket in the USA, like a forerunner to the Canadian showdown, the prospect of working together is open.

The West Indies begin their quest for a spot in the One Day International final in India next October.

Fortunes have dropped since the double championship in 1975 and 1979. The emphasis shifted with the emergence of the T20 version. Our dismissal from the last tournament came as a disembowelment.

We have a task to regain our honour.

The opportunity is there for us to rekindle that spirit in Zimbabwe and carry it into India. Battles are not won on paper, or in the minds.

The team has to come together and forget about insularity. We cannot be bickering over the sizes of our territories.

There is no room for selfishness in the West Indies team. Individuals have to do their thing, but there must be team work.

Cricket is a unifying force in the Caribbean. Our cricketers have to give us with that endorsement.

We accept the origins of cricket. There is no sport as colonial as cricket. We have endured colonial dominance in the economic and psychological realms.

That is why acquitting ourselves on the field is a moral victory.

Frank Worrell predicted that the smaller islands will form the core of West Indies cricket. That statement may not have been endorsed on the regional circuit, for not everyone is as prophetic or indeed humble as Worrell.

The action in Zimbabwe is enough to arouse one’s curiosity. Any assignment involving the West Indies carries that third eye factor.

There are hopes and dreams. For the die-hards it is more. There is faith and love. Best wishes to the West Indies.

Special Olympians poised to deliver

TRAINING Director of Special Olympic SVG- Terrance Davis expects the nine Vincentians who will be participating in the 2023 World Games in Berlin, Germany, will continue to pattern of the country giving very good performances.

Davis made the prediction last Sunday, June 11, at the Argyle International Airport, as the team left for Germany via England for the big event scheduled from June 17 to 25.

The Director projected, “I know that the athletes have put a lot of work into it and we have a very good record of always representing St. Vincent and the Grenadines and ourselves … I do believe giving our best, we will definitely do as our history would

have proven time and time again”.

Meanwhile, Chief Executive of Digicel St. Vincent and the Grenadines — Victor Kovacs noted that the foundation has been laid for them to go and compete.

“All those mornings that you had to get up and train and go to work and come back and train…all those hours of dedication… This is it… It is not what you win… It is that you can compete now”, Kovacs told the nine athletes.

Digicel is one of the primary

partners in facilitating St. Vincent and the Grenadines’ participation at the Berlin Games.

St Vincent and the Grenadines will be represented by four Tennis players, three swimmers and two in Track and Field. Apart from the athletes and Davis, the contingent is completed by four coaches, team doctor, the national Director of Special Olympics and a media personnel.

At the last World Games held in 2019 in Abu Dhabi, St. Vincent and the Grenadines pouched 17 medals: seven gold, six silver and four bronze.

That medal haul represented St. Vincent and the Grenadines’ best performance at the World Games thus far. Then, 25 athletes and 12 officials made up the delegation and St. Vincent and the Grenadines competed in Bocce, Track and Field, Football, Swimming and Tennis.

Coast Guard takes Road Relay kudos

OFFICERSof the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Coast Guard took to land and ran away with the top position in the Inter-Ministerial Road Replay held last week

Thursday, June 8, around Kingstown.

The mixed team of male and female officers were led by their Commander — Lieutenant Commander Deon Henry, who set them on the winning course with a fine run in the first leg, a two hundred-metre sprint around Victoria park.

The Ministry of Transport placed second with Senior Technical Officer -Allister Browne, bringing in the baton first at the first changeover but his teammates failed to maintain the lead.

Budget Director in the Ministry of Finance- Ken Morris, came out with some explosive speed but it wasn’t good enough. They had to settle for third place.

Mother dissatisfied with sentence

From Backpage.

Justice Cottle placed both offences in the highest category. He noted that Judson was paralysed from his chest down, leaving him unable to work and earn a living, and to assist in the upbringing of his 10year-old daughter. He

highlighted the use of a weapon and that the incident occurred in broad daylight in a public road. He also noted that Hazell concealed his identity.

Hazell has previous convictions for theft and assault causing bodily harm.

Applying the

sentencing guidelines, the Judge started at 22 years and six months on each charge. He found no mitigating factors in relation to the offence and the offender and concluded that the aggravating factors outweigh the mitigating for both offences. As a result, Cottle increased the sentences by two years and six months, moving it to 25 years.

Hazell did not benefit from a guilty plea, as the

matter went through a full trial, following which he was found guilty. However, the one year, ten months and 23 days spent on remand were deducted, bringing the sentence down to 23 years, but one year was subtracted from this for Hazell’s remarks of apology and remorse, prior to his sentencing, resulting in the final sentence of 22 years on each charge, to run concurrently.

MOTHER DISSATISFIED WITH SENTENCE

VIOLA‘Sister’ Jacobs, the mother of the boy who was left paralyzed from his chest down, following a shooting incident at Canouan three years and four months ago, has expressed dissatisfaction with the penalty handed down to the perpetrator.

Bequia resident, Shammai Hazell, 27, began a 22-year prison sentence on Friday 9th June for robbing and

wounding Judson Jacobs of Arnos Vale with intent on November 23, 2019.

Before Justice Brian Cottle delivered his sentencing remarks, he gave Hazell, who was unrepresented, an opportunity to say something.

Hazell expressed extreme remorse and apologized to the Court and the victim’s family for his actions.

He also promised to continue to keep the victim and his family in his prayers. He admitted that what he did was wrong, and asked the Court for leniency.

But Jacob’s mother told THE VINCENTIAN on Monday, “What I don’t get is that all along he was denying that he committed these acts, and now because he was found guilty, he is apologizing and praying. We don’t need his prayers. His prayers are blood prayers. He needs prayers more than us. Let him keep his prayers.

Mrs. Jacobs said that though her son is not dead, he is paralyzed from his chest down.

“I am just not satisfied with the sentence. He is confined to a bed and wheelchair. It’s a young aspiring life gone there. He was always on the go, and now it is very depressing, and when he gets depressed and starts reacting, it affects me greatly. He ain’t trouble anybody, he was working honestly for his little dollar, and you put him down, and now you saying you sorry.”

She added, “It is not an easy thing to cope with at my age… I have health issues too, and he has a 10-year-old girl to look after. I know that no sentence could bring him back, but I think the sentence could have been

more.”

Judson, now 30, is the last of three children for his mother, and the second boy.

A nine-member Jury had found Hazell guilty of both charges on May 5, 2023, following a full trial, but sentencing was adjourned.

The facts showed that Judson, then 26, was based in Canouan working for his uncle Mark Jacobs as a sales clerk. He was responsible for purchasing conchs and lobsters in large quantities from the Fisheries in Canouan.

At about 11 a.m. on November 23, 2019, Judson left his home in Canouan to purchase conchs at the Fisheries.

He had on him EC$10,000 in cash and a digital scale in a black one strap messenger bag. As he walked towards the Fisheries, he noticed, ‘through the corner of his eye’, someone walking behind him. When he turned around to see who it was, he saw a masked man pointing a gun at him. The mask revealed the man’s eyes, and he observed a teardrop tattoo under his left eye and recognized him to be someone he would often see at the Fisheries. The bandit demanded that the victim hand over the bag.

Judson turned and started running towards the Fisheries and the bandit chased him. He fired a shot at Judson who kept running, but his feet gave out and he fell flat in the dirt. The bandit then ran towards him, took the

bag with the money, and ran off.

Persons who witnessed the ordeal ran to Judson’s assistance. He was transported to the Canouan Clinic, then to the Milton Cato Memorial Hospital, via Coast Guard.

Later that day police apprehended Hazell. A search was carried out at his home; nothing illegal was found. He was later charged with robbery and wounding with intent.

Both robbery and wounding with intent carry maximum penalties of life imprisonment equated to 30 years.
