Congratulations, Mr. Christie!

The final night of the P.L.P. convention was an incredible, mindboggling, and sensational performance. It was a first class success act, and I can only say, “congratulations, Mr. Christie”. The lopsided victory experienced in the leadership race with Mr. Sears, was  another remarkable feat, which also deserves heartiest commendation. Mr. Christie has made believers of many of us naysayers. It is my hope and prayer that as he indicated, “he intends to prove himself worthy of the confidence reposed in him, and not fail his loyal supporters nor the Bahamian people”. My daily prayer is that he will not fail God, nor the Bahamian people.

It is no secret that I have been critical of many of Mr. Christie’s decisions in recent times. Given the degree of support for Mr. Christie’s continued leadership of the P.L.P., and the country, as was evident at the convention, including the support of many highly respected pastors, I was left bereft of words. Like the Old Testament prophet in Habakkuk 2:1, “I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what (God) will say unto me”. In the interim, there is one thing of which I am absolutely certain;  “Righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people”. Proverbs 14:34.
