In 2004 Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit had the distinction of becoming the world’s youngest leader.
At 32 he became Dominica’s new Prime Minister, after the death of former prime minister Pierre Charles.
For more than a decade now he has been the island’s leader and for many of his followers, can do no wrong.
His critics accuse him of alleged corruption, dictatorial practices, and being responsible for virtually all the ills of the country including violent crime.
But Skerrit appears immune to defeat, despite the numerous allegations.
Today June 8, the man whose “dimples” is a rallying point for both critics and fans, turns 44.
It’s not clear how Skerrit is celebrating his big day today but it is not difficult to imagine that he may be basking in his latest victory at the Soufriere by-election.
It has been speculated on social media that he timed the by-election to coincide with his birthday, so he could celebrate in a big way.
Whether this is true or not, the Prime Minister has reasons to celebrate.
In the run-up to the polls, he said he wanted victory in a big way.
He got his wish since the Dominica Labour Party’s candidate, Denise Charles, swept the election taking 1,342 votes while her competitor from the United Workers Party, Higgs Adam, took 560 votes.
Him looks more like 64 2 me. Who cares bout eem day-day?
See dem haters boy hmmmmm smh
What is so difficult in saying happy bday even to someone you oppose? Dominicans you have let politics rule your life that you cannot say a good thing about someone of the opposite party. You guys are worse than the Democrates and Republicans in the US. Wayy Papa. I’m an independent in DA and abroad. That means I’m neutral.
Happy Birthday to my PM – Hon Roosevelt Skerrit; wishing him long life and God’s blessings.
I see we are under the same sign my PM – enjoy to the fullest
Late, but better than never, PM Skerrit, I can imagine that you had a great day for your birthday
I observe you in the first place, as loving husband to your wife and father to your children, very few men has this virtue; well except for my dad of course–may he rest in peace.
You are a man of good Leadership; blessed with the wisdom and charisma from God, which is needed to maintain a good relationship with the people whome you reign over and the international leaders worldwide.
Continue in your ways Sir–relying on God\’s teachings and guidance. Sir PM, remember that without Him, through Christ Jesus, you could have done nothing, as human being. Imagine Jesus saying about Himself: \”I can of Myself to nothing\” John 5: 30 Jesus the Man relied on the Christ who lived in Him to do His Mission on Earth
Keep in mind that He has appointed you, and your role can only be reversed by His Authority; man has no power to do this

Happy Birthday to the Prime Minister at today I pray this prayer.
“Dear God, I want to lift the Prime Minister up to you in prayer. He needs Your wisdom and direction for Dominica. Please continue to keep him humble and always relying upon You to give him the perfect wisdom and direction that he needs. Help him to consider information offered by others and also to come to You in prayer as he evaluates things. Remind him of Your servant Solomon who when he was to become king prayed only for Your wisdom and because of his humility You granted even more than wisdom. I pray this in Jesus name, Amen!”
