"Unfit to Govern!"

Over the past few weeks Bahamians have watched members of government and the official opposition, men and women who were elected to be about the business of the people, squabble publicly like a group of unsupervised toddlers.

For months now, the governing side has struggled to recover from defections in its own ranks all while floundering under the weight of the PM’s broken promises on addressing crime or the stagnant Bahamar property. With each passing day, senior members of the Christie government continue to prove themselves less concerned with moving the country forward, and more so with the preservation of their personal political legacies.

Equally disappointing in recent weeks has been the behavior of those within the Free National Movement. As the official opposition, they too have been sorely lacking. Instead of rising to the occasion and holding the government’s feet to the fire, this hapless, ineffective opposition is too busy bickering among themselves to present the public with a united front. BOTH HAVE PROVEN UNFIT TO GOVERN.

Now, more than ever, what the country needs is an administration which is focused purely on the business of moving the country forward. What the country needs is a DNA administration, one focused on reversing years of mismanagement and cronyism.

The Democratic National Alliance is not so naïve as to believe that we will inherit the government simply through the incompetence in both major political parties. We, like ALL BAHAMIANS, have endured the economic hardships brought on by a culture of nepotism and injustice, we too have been victimized by men and women drunk with political power. We too have fallen victim to the criminal element. WE UNDERSTAND!

In the coming weeks Bahamians will hear details of the DNA’s plans on important national issues such as Education, Crime, The Economy and The Environment. We continue to work day and night to hear the concerns of Bahamians across the country and, with the help of scores of

qualified men and women, are crafting plans to improve the lives of ALL BAHAMIANS and not just the political elite.
