(Statement) Save Our Bahamas Vote No Committee, like most Bahamians appreciate and respect the right of retired Justice Dame Joan Sawyer to voice her opinion in reference to the upcoming Constitutional Referendum. We believe that she has earned the respect of her country and the right as a Bahamian to speak on any national issue without being demonized simply because she does not agree with the position of the Government and the Vote Yes Campaign.
After all, we believe that Dame Sawyer is eminently qualified to interpret the Constitution of The Bahamas having served as the First Bahamian Female Chief Justice of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas and the First Bahamian Female President of the Court of Appeal.
Save Our Bahamas Vote No Committee would like to remind
the Government as well as members of the Vote Yes Campaign that the Bahamas is a democratic nation and as such the views of all citizens should be heard and respected.
