Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has hinted that the unemployment sector will soon benefit from an initiative geared at creating over 400 employment opportunities across Dominica.
He made the disclosure at an award ceremony at the St. Matthew’s Hall in St. Joseph on Thursday evening.
“I will come back at another opportunity to speak about some initiatives that the government is about to implement towards assisting with the unemployment situation confronting our young people,” Skerrit said. “And we have a program to roll out over the next couple weeks … we will be targeting the unemployment of over 4oo people across Dominica.”
At the function Skerrit donated a $40,000 cheque to the St. Joseph village council for its Small Business Support Program.
He said previously the government had contributed $200,000 to the program but it was insufficient to those who applied for assistance.
“The $200,000 we gave the first time was not sufficient to support all who had applied,” he stated. “And I felt that we need to support all who applied for the assistance and I was told you needed an extra $40,000 to complete that arrangement.”
According to the prime minister it was a “promise made, a promise kept.”
“And whenever we say we will do something, we will do it by the grace and help of God,” he pointed out. “And I am happy that I have been provided with the resources required to hand over this cheque to the Chairman of the village council, towards the completion of the Small Business Support Program in St. Joseph.”
Best Skerro shut up and stop making story. He make a big manufacturing company close down when he could have helped them to stay in Dominica and employ over 50 people. Now he talkin about 400 jobs. I see.
My child in Barbados suffering because they have not paid his economic fees. These people think real sensible and hardworking people worry with them.
Grace mercy and peace if my mind serve me right did the p.m tell us at la point 500 hundred jobs now mr liar telling us is 400 jobs skerrit what u taking us for fools we fedup change is a must to little to late.
According to former Police Commish – one word King Liar!!
What surprises me the most is the support this Skerro still have in Da, regardless of all the nonsensical thing and untruths that come out of his mouth.
But Roseau South is voting differently next election
“4oo jobs?” What kind of jobs? what qualifications needed? What do I have to SUCK to get one of these jobs? I’m a UWP, do I need to switch parties? tell me quick.
Really!!! that’s all you have to offer after 15 years in office.
A population of 80,000 and you creating 400 jobs and you’re saying this with a straight face.
You will fool your RED CLINIC recipients, but not those of us who know your tricks.
We welcome the jobs but you all are only looking for the labourites. when someone is going for a job the comment is “he/she is not one of us” (ask the parl. rep. from wesley she is good at that) and is only your supporters getting the jobs. the government serve the people so bring the jobs for those who are qualified not just labourites.
pleae pm THE smart thing todo for more money to say in st joseph please make the president position vacant to much money for one man who should be a retire . Or ask him to serve without a president salary ThAT THE WAY YOU CAN CUT COST
400 new jobs or 400 lies ?? .. quick disappointing the people especially the youth
so far 1200 new jobs, Dominicans will smill if it so.
300 – Mr.Austrie
500 – PM Skeritt
400 – PM Skeritt
Soon the unemployment percentage will move from 32% to 2% at that rate……. A promise is a comfort to a fool. Hope it’s not so in these cases.
It’s creole festival.. Olie jobsla e promised during labour convention? Garcon me papyshow en Dominicque.
how is it this pm can just run around the country just giving out tax payers money like it is his private funds. that’s why i think
L- lies, lawyers
A- atrocities,arson
b- bribes , bombs
o- outrageous
U- utter
R- rubbish
great lines
e should call a special election between Skerrit and Papy.
I’m a Freedomite that voted Labour the last two elections but awa wi Skewo. I can’t vote you again nah. My good concience will not let me.
Goodness gracious, every time you hear dem fellas talk about jobs is when you hear more people losing the jobs. Prime Minister stop making those promises in attempting to fool the people. If you have jobs JUST DO IT like NIKE instead of these empty promises.
Sometime ago whilst you were away you ask Austrie to announce for you that you were coming home with 300 brand new jobs in your brief case and he did. As soon as you got here and open your brief some 246 fled from the Clear Harbour Area (Monell Williams almost lost her job in the process). In Point Mitchel you said that by Sept 30 you will announce another 500 new jobs but instead we learn of retrenchment at LIME and allegedly FCIB. Now you are in St. Joe telling more of this. My friend stop it now too much deception man, we have lost all faith in you and your ability to take us forward. In the past 9+ years you have only taken Roosevelt Medad Skerrit and a selected few forward and we shall have no more of this behaviour in our office!
Skerrit give up the leadership of the country too much people suffering in the country.
My friend the challenges we face and what is ahead you cannot handle it. I understnad it is not your fault as you don’t have the mental landscape to provide solvents for the issues.
Viva Viva Partner!!!!
A promise is a comfort to you fools
skerite I fed up of u skerite ,every year is the same crap.what job u promising u have a job.not a sweetie I get from u in 9 years.i say workerrrrrrrss. give workers a chance!!!!!!! go to hell.we boycotting that bloody independence.
The class of Roseau South is attending school since 2000 we will be graduating this election, if after 13 years of schooling one is still in ABC then there is a problem in your brain.
How much more do you think you can get away with those untruths, among all our PMs you are the biggest enemy of the truth, and that was expressed by your advocate on the K FM station, politics of lies vs. politics of truth, don’t you think people are taking notes.
What’s wrong with this man? I think he is just tired. Take a rest Skerrit. You making yourslf pass like a papyshow.
I saw a person looking like him driving a yellow car with a speaker on top.
Garçon Go to hell, Go to hell! It’s none of our damn business how many promises you make, doh fool yourself, ou pas Bondier! With faith in God he shall supply all our needs and even our need for change. We are grossly disappointed in the government we once loved and voted for. Allu fellas do not have a monoploly on leadership and all you guys have done is taken care of yourselves first class and then you are trying to catch a vote here and there with the rest. We are so fed up of your trickery and lies, your secret and technical victimization that we really do not care what you do anymore and we are not afraid. Joining hearts, hands and voices in denying you another term to further plunge our beloved country into poverty and crisis (leadership, presidential, treasury looting, lies, deception villas, land deals, bobol and that list goes on). You know you lose already so we thank Monel Williams for this $40,000 cheque, Joshua Francis for the new school and playing field and the entire UWP team for your LPO and spending spree.
Mr PM if you going to roll out 500 jobs shouldn’t you be talking to the nation and not promising to come and tell St Joseph. SMFH. This dude need some help. Not even the America government can come to it’s people and say I am going to roll out 500 jobs. Government don’t do that. Job creation is systematic and not automatic. Systems , facilities, operations are put in place to create jobs. Giving money to a few party supporters here and there is corruption not job creation.
The bible story says that a snap of a finger Jesus turn water into wine and one loaf of bread into baskets of bread well let us see Skerrit the messiah create 500 jobs I a jiffy. Mathew Walter’s prediction that Skerrit is Jesus may just be prophetic. So all along the Jesus of Bethlehem was just a hoax is actually Jesus of vielle Case. Behold the Vielle Case Messiah
By the way jesus of Vielle Casewe we are still waiting for the 100 day plan to come through; the boat for the farmers; unemployment check for the unemployed; Please Jesus of Vielle Case ask LIAT to deliver the lost suit cases containing the end of September jobs or unless Jesus of Vielle Case decided to bring those jobs when he delivering the farmers boat.
In the name of the father , Skerrit and the holy Spirit Amen.
Oh gush, this is one of the BEST comments I have ever read on DNO.
Alas, skerrit tired fool us. Well he aint getting my vote againnnn. Its over!
Oh my god how can Dominicans sit and allow smokey the bandit to do what he wants with tax payers money. If that is what we call progress ebeh 1930 here we come.
This is exactly the kind of government corruption that that creates poverty and division. This is what Chavez did why today Venezuela ( with it’s magnificent riches) has so much poverty. Chavez was able to buy loyalty just the same way – While doing so the people became poorer and poorer.
This is heart breaking and the sad thing is people who know better are condoning such behavior. The director of audit who is suppose to be representing our interest cannot speak; the ministers in cabinet are only there to collect a pay check while Skerrit is on the rampage. The religious leaders burry their heads in the sand while their right hand is up collecting the rain drops.
I have never seen such recklessness in Dominica. These are the same people who told us that the UWP was very corrupt. Well this Roosevelt Party took corruption to the next level and the people went down into the valley of poverty and dependency. Those who are able to speak choose to drink the wine of betrayal get drunk and conveniently remain asleep.
Crying crying crying – those who believe in prayer please pray for Dominica.
amen
We are approaching the end of the rope now.
“The $200,000 we gave the first time was not sufficient to support all who had applied,” he stated. “And I felt that we need to support all who applied for the assistance and I was told you needed an extra $40,000 to complete that arrangement.”
Believe it or not I Mamizoo is not a supporter of any political party. Mamizoo is all about Dominica. So when I read this statement by Skerrit to the St Joseph people I want to vomit. While one faction of government is in another area talking about small business development agency ( like NDFD does not exist) Skerrit the government is running his own promotion show viki vy.
How many rum kabawais ( rum shop) develop into viable businesses that employ people? Well I am not only saying that the vote buying money is for rum kabawais but that the country is being managed by one man with a rum kabawais business owner mentality. ” let me $200 in some pweve … ahhhh not enough let me put some water in the pweve them gwogere wouldn’t even notice. Next week let me put add $40 to some zayeed rum”No structure, no managerial skills, acting on impulse. Even if there is a business plan he has no regards for the plan; if there are laws and regulation regarding expenditures etc he has no regard. The rum shop owner is lord and king – it’s all about I do this, I find this.
We wonder why Dominica is in such a bad bad condition. $200 was ” donated” to the St Joseph council for small businesses and how much came out of that. Who is monitoring the progress.
Where does central government “donate ” funding for small business development. Government put systems in place that would stimulate small business development. Where in the world one man does around as “thee government” donating checks willy Nilly and claiming that it is to develop the people.
Tax payers of this country we aught to be enraged by what is going on. Where is this money coming from and why it is that the wanton spending did not appear on the budget presented three months ago.
This is the level of corruption that our system of government allow. One man is able to run the country into the ground like a suicide bomber. No one can stop him. Roosevelt Skerrit is out of control.
Will we ever see a change in this government system ? I doubt cause be it UWP , Freedom, Labour DEMLAB ce le meme.
As we speak, he has his cronies in the US and some Caribbean countries asking people if they want to come home and vote in the election. Don’t be surprised if you see a sudden influx of expats coming back to vote their family members back into poverty for another 5 years. I guess they also like ppl to beg them, and it makes them feel good when they can boast to all their friends about the number of barrels the have to send home.
I believe that he will even hold the election during a time like Christmas or Carnival so it will appear that they are only coming home to visit. Be aware Dominicans, as the saying goes, “fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me,” I wonder if we are gonna let ourselves be fooled a 4th time.
Vex if u want but I will b home to vote him back in, u Dominicans to not easy. Dominica is not the worse off
Since you coming back to vote him you should come back to leave there also
u are welcome to stay
The numbers are dwindling. … from 500 to 400
Hey when you see a known labourite in a quiet public place like a bank or a suppermarket just look at him/her and shout out LABAAAAAAAA and see what happens. Those labourite so damn stupid ots a shame.
Is now you all know Skerrit is loosing it? And who is in charge of the Unemployment sector? Simion? Things so bad that you have an unemployment sector?
In most countries its usually the private sector who are creating jobs and make up a higher percentage of gpa whereas in dominica its the government . Where the hell is the private sector?!!!! In the dominica we cannot keep on counting on the government for everything if we do then we shouldjust become a socialist island . Plus dominicans lazy the unemployed are unemployed because they’re lazy not because it doesn’t have jobs what sense does it make applying for a job when you dont have a degree or you do have one but with a low or boardeline gpa like duhhhhh the upportunities are there take them . In my opinion Hon. Roosevelt Skerrit just making Dominicans even lazy than they already are, there I said it Dominicans are very lazy people.
Trinidominican…..The GOV’T is intentionally dismantling the private sector example Jerry Brisbane company Brizee Mart. If you not doing Skerrit biding as a private business owner they make it very hard for your survival. There is an organized GOVT small business unit to help boost the private sector business but the Prime Minister always undermine them every time he get a chance with his free giving behave with no accountability. Therefore making the GOVT Small Business unit dysfunctional.
Yes you the right this is the breeding ground for socialism with dictatorship and away from democracy.
Hope you don’t have a degree bondieur. Sakwais Kuyon
lol, de person really stupid
Look jokes Skerro really on his toes…every month is a promising of jobs and yet…nothin…
Fortunately, Mr.Skerrit’s job is among the new vacant jobs to be filled.
first it was 300 then its 500 now its 400 new jobs he said all coming month end of the month he said it ,,,, however not 1 job has materialized ..lies ! lies ! and more lies!
Stupes.
Give 200 to DNO and pay them. Then there wil be nothing like: your comment is still awaiting moderation.
What is the salary of the lieing, lying president?
How much are the allowances and how much the gratuity?
I thought he said “400 job opportunities.” Not “jobs,” but job opportunities. Somebody please change the needle on the old phonogram,it’s stuck. Or change the record – too many scratches. squeek squeek squeek it squeeking.
Why all the fluctuation in numbers? What is this man trying with Dominicans. Just get the damn jobs going man!!! and stop your empty promises
What happened to the other 100. I thought it was suppose to be 500. I think when people make up stuff, they forget the original number.
VAT took up the other 100 jobs.
But where were all these jobs during the past 13 years noh? Eh Beh Mister think Dominicans sott noh? WEll tell Skerro we wise up and no more fooling games gona work on us.
Dominica needs a new Gov’t.
I think my parl.rep has gone maddddddddddd
Hand out hand out hand out… no jobs people resort to begging..
Well i am unemployed , and i don’t want hand out so i am waiting for a job tell me when ,where and i will definitely apply
same tune different day, oh by the way its a gentleman who is trying to set up a call center here so how is skerrit creating the jobs there nuh? oh boy oh boy people wake up please stop letting them people take allu for idiots.
i hope that is true and not just because of politics.so long I am looking for a job, it is over a year now i graduated from the DSC, I JUST praying that this is true
Every month the number of jobs promised by skerrit changes. 300, 500 now 400. Is this a total of 1200 jobs? WOW. I wonder if all these jobs are from one investor who continues to shift the goal post to someone they view as a desperate PM or is it just his own shear desperation that makes him make these pie in the sky promises. This is a PM whose grip on power and whose self enrichment schemes are slipping from him. He is running all over the places doling out money, LPO’s and making empty promises. My question is why is he not being questioned by the media about the previous job promises each month for the past 3 months?
Great job Skerro… that’s 400 more jobs that UWP created in the last 15 years.
Go ahead make Mr. Linton’s day. Just before the UWP convention it was three hundred jobs. Then there was the UWP rally we heard of five hundred jobs. Next week the top economic brass of the UWP is to meet at Fort Young in order to put a economic plans together in an effort to create jobs, wow, Skeritt is hinting about four hundred jobs. When Mr. Linton moves, Skeritt follows. Please be careful, Skeritt, you don’t catch Lennox’s cold.
If Dominicans vote Skerro back in office: this will go down as the greatest tragedy in Dominican history.
We will become even poorer than Haiti. Take note my Da people.
next month is 300…..smh
Elections coming? Well ever since 2009 it felt like the campaign was never done, so elections was always coming. Now that’s it is close to 2015, it is a fact that elections is coming, however, this does not mean that the government should stop working even if election coming.
Enough is enough with your lies and empty barrels. All these promises will not fool us any more.
You will not get our votes again.Your lying shoe is squeezing our foot.
Out you go next election.
I hope that the people of D’ica mean it this time they are calling for CHANGE because our young people on the ISLAND deserve more than empty promises and that have to stop once and for all, it’s time we give someone else a chance to see what can be done to bring the Island forward and to stop it from going backward.
As MONMEL said change is a much so let us RISE to the task a head of all us .
While the PM talking about jobs, Lenox talking about exploiting our youths and causing division in our Independence Celebration. Where is the oposition!
What jobs? Smh. I’ve been hearing that song like a old record.
Enough of that, get the damn jobs and stop talking.
So you really beleive Skerro? Well, I have the land title for the whole of Portsmouth and I will seel it to you for $1.
@Politics Again Lennox is being an example to Skerrit fools like you,that we should show outrage against what is DEAD WRONG.Savarin as president? That’s why I will vote LENNOX millions of times INSTEAD OF SKERRIT.
LENNOX STANDS FIRMLY AGAINST WHAT IS WRONG. Does Skerrit have the capacity to do that? NO!
WORKERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
You are such a fool. I haven’t voted in 3 elections and yet to see a politician whom I will give it to. You are just another political puppet who will do as you are told. I have no loyalty to anny party. That shows how arrogant you are, for as long as one doesn’t support you all, thet person belongs to Sherrit. I have news for you, if that is the case, you will reain exactly where you are full of hatred.
The writter has no respect for the Hon. Prime Minister. Please address the man properly whether we like him or not.
HONORABLE???? LOL lol… garcon u have joke weee ay ay lol
Ikr …These people don’t know their places . I wish some you would go live in jamaica …
Dominican! Dose the PM have respect for the nation?
God is good all the time, all the time God is good bringing casinos for employment. Augustine say someting Romans 31
In government for 13 years, 9 years of that you are PM, promising people jobs and better leaving but only giving handouts at the red clinic and humiliating the poor people of Dominica on GIS 24/7 saying what you want them to say, because government build a house for them, people losing jobs left, right, and center, if people allow you to fool them again well Dominican would be(byen sote)well foolish
You definitely do not read international news. Sir/madame, the entire world is in Economic crisis, obviously, Dominica as a developing state will also be affected. I do not know why we keep blaming the Government for everything. He said that over 400 Dominicans will be employed when the program is launched. Let us just pray that it is successful instead of speaking negativity. Hon Prime Minister, you have the full support of the masses, keep striving to make Dominicans lives better. Rome was not built in a day remember, and now it is one of the greatest cities.
why do you think her name is Neg… cause she negative.
you must be STUPID!!!
You definitely have NOT lived in Dominica for the past 13 years ! ! ! . Make Dominicans life better ????? My friend the MASSES are practically are at their wits end… if you live in Dominica take a walk around the capital and you will be shocked the amount of persons who will ask you for a dollar .
How long do you think the Red clinic money lasts ??
I have only one word in reply..UTTER-RUBBISH.
So wen should we blame our governement…. bush pushed the us to economic downturn. the people blamed their government and voted the republicans out. In france the same happened.. sarcozy was kicked out. Italy berlosconi kicked outout…in britain the labor part was kicked out andreplaced with a coalition government… all over the world, where governments have failed their people, the people have acted and replaced them at thepolls.why should dominica be any different? we can even look at examples in thecaribbean…. st lucia, grenada, just to name afew have done the rightful thing! ISAY DOMINICA IS NEXT…. CHANGE IS AMUST…….. NOT ANOPTION!!!!!
@ Realized Yes you are a classic Skerrit slave. International Financial Crisis has nothing to do with the poor and miserable state of Dominica. Dominica’s impoverishment is a direct consequence of GREEDY LEADERS, WHO LIE,STEAL AND CHEAT.
Thanks be to God this reign is coming to an end soon. After 13 long years its lies, insults, begging,that has characterized this lazy regime.
SHAME ON THIS GOVERNMENT.
DOMINICANS NEED TO DISCARD THEM LOCK STOCK AND BARREL!
The entire world is fight for gay rights and marriage… should we do the same 2!
You well stupid and properly fooled. You either not from here or you haven’t been listening to Skerrit lies. when we first heard of hundreds of jobs from skerrit how many lose their jobs at clear harbour. Maybe you are suffering from ‘espwa mal papaye’
A supporter of the united workers party told me today we are suffering from global crisis ..So what do you want the man to do for you all go and bull ?/ He is doing and trying his best!!! come on man stupes!!!
Wow..wow Good stuff PM 400 job opportunities. Really??? REALLY PM?? All of a sudden there’s 500 & 400 job opportunities presented to Dominicans. Why this wasn’t done earlier in your term?
Correction. Please give the man his title DNO. It’s Mr. Skerit or The Prime Minister. A little more respect please.
Thank you
You people are high on this guy, mr what?, we refer to the president OBAMA as obama most times with no one raising objections to it. Get a hold of yourself. These kinds of politician are not gods, they don’t deserve this kinda respect
respect is earn, Did he respect us when he put his President in at gun point
tell him have more respect for others the we can respect 4 him in all Pm that serve in Dominica he is the only one that have no respect 4 Dominica at all.he is very rudeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee and out off placeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
God’s way! when Skerit respect us and himself then respect for him will be AUTOMATIC.
His title should not define him ….its about his performance..he was born as Skerit, dont you call Jesus by his name…do you say king Jesus? Did not Jesus still do his job? There are bigger problems to worry about than a title.. smh
lol
deception,why now?
ELECTION,, all donkeys are not asses
Great loser that’s what you can contribute to the poorest community/constituency. This for 400 jobs is not for the community is for entire Commonwealth of Dominica and what can this money do to the community, you had 13 years and now you coming with your papashow talk.
This man is a total and anyone that fall for his political promise is even more idiotic. Firstly, create the new jobs and then boast about it….
Christmas is coming or is it elections are coming…..$40,000-Something is happening. It must be Christmas in October and Elections in December!!! the last time was December 19th.
It would appear that it isn’t only Mr. Josau Francis that is causing Skeritt some sleepless night, Miss Monell Williams has also joined.
But where de first set of JOBS he had promise it not coming through man Skerro u doh tired (kynor) fool SOME DOMINICANS shame on u man
Thank you Sir. Hon Skerritt, please continue to do the work of the country and don’t be side tracked by the enemies of progress, the “Boycott opposition party”.
stupes…where he doin work……next month will be 300 jobs…smfh…every month he will drop a 100…
jobs? jobs you say? where? when? how?.
stupess every month is a different promise of new jobs I yet to see any new jobs
The fundamental jobs creation should start with the Chinese projects that are currently ongoing in Dominica. I am of the view a lot of young unemployed Dominicans should be placed on these jobs as interns. This will assist with our unemployment issues and help these young people will learn the trade in a mentorship setting to become part of the skilled employees that Dominica needs. As a professional I am absolutely disappointed when my country has students graduation in the hundreds, case in point the recent grads from DSC (300 plus) and the rate of job creation seem to be regressing. I would like ask each of our parliamentary representatives how many Chinese are unemployed compared to locals. We need to keep in mind that as Dominicans we will be the ones to repay these loans, yet we cannot even participate in the short term benefit like a salary. I do not care who is in power this is wrong. I understand that we need assistance from foreign governments, but we are too weak at negotiating the terms of reference, yet any descent is seen as unpatriotic. How can we be living in a country that is ours, yet our local MPW Engineers cannot overlook jobs being done by the Chinese to make sure they are building based on Caribbean Building/Construction code. Too many of our people are so afraid to speak; as a professional working out of Dominica, I see many signs where the building materials used by the Chinese are sub-standard, case in point the non-use of coated steel and deformed steel in beams causing them to bleed (rust marks) on the outside of the beams is a sign of material use; this can also mean the cover used might be less than 2 1/2″ – 3″ and thereby causing water to seep through cracks in the beams (look at the Stadium ring beams). When deformed steel is not used it will affect the bonding in Reinforce concrete. Note: At very high temperatures, steel expands more rapidly than concrete and the two materials can separate if the correct deformed steel is not used. This bond strength is proportional to the contact surface of the steel to the concrete, and therefore it is absolutely important that the right deformed steel aka rebars is used. This just one of many areas that needs to be addressed. This comment is in no way seeking to create any problems, but we need to be able to have a say in the quality control of our infrastructure construction.
You are absolutely correct, more youngstars should be on job traing…in the future we will or should not need all the chineese…you sould quite informed…i am standing for what is right.
The panic level is definitely on the increase SKERRO. Remember to check you blood pressure MAN!.I STILL LOVE YOU BROTHER BUT HATE YOU LEADERSHIP TO THE BONE. It’s terrible!I can sense that you are dead shocked at the mass movement of people from your corrupt cabal to the UWP.
Now you will promise the world to the people of Dominica. They will take everything and vote you out.YOUR GOVERNMENT IS THE WORST THAT HAS EVER RULED THIS LAND. SHAME ON YOU!
1. Promise every unemployed mothers a monthly salary or a house as you once did nah!.
2.Promiese them 100 jobs within your LAST 100 days in office nah!
3. Promise them an employment agency as you did in 2009 nah!.
YOU ARE ALREADY DISCARDED!!!!!!!.
JUST ANNOUNCE THE DATE FOR ELECTION, for the electorate to send you packing.
When you invited Linton to the ring you thought he would refuse? Now you are out in the dark begging people to please vote back!
My departed mother once told me of headless people walking in the dark in Dominica dragging chains behind them,you stone them, the stone returns on you.You left them at the shop, and they arrive home before you.She told me they are called ZOMBIES. She told me these people are wicked souls,who have done lots of evil things to people of their country.
DOWN WITH ARROGANT, INCOMPETENT AND INSULTIVE LEADERS. WORKERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
LINTONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
When will the Dominica people wake-up and demand that these lowly politicians stop their verbal assault on educated citizens, noh?
I mean this man is going crazy!!Same story over and over again, and there are still some Dominicans who are expecting a different result! It is time elections are called to get DLP out of office. I am really fed-up now.
Dlp is not going anyware..labour forever.
the amount of job mr prime minister already promise,i am sure every body in dominica would be employed by now .(including children ,senior citizens and those that not even born yet)
What he means the jobs will be released a few weeks before election because their are still some folks he can still fool he have control over their minds, and remember the PM have training in deceiving the people because he believe they a full of it they talk but they still come back to me because they LOVE me.
Lol its not just about employment it also about the salary..imagije nurses make a 1000 ec…others make $800 and less..thats less than $300us shame shame shame….slavary just missing the wipe…
is this the 300 that became 500 that is now 400? or is it 500+400 new jobs now in the pipeline? 900 new jobs would do us good…..
He can clean out the treasury if he wants.. I’d take the money and still vote him out for love of country!
******* WAY TO GO *********
Here we go again…this time 400 jobs. Previously it was 300 jobs before that it was 500 jobs, next week it will be 600 jobs. Why doesn’t he shut up? Everybody in Dominica knows by now it’s only lies you are telling.
Thats not news, PM Skerrit made that announcement at Dublanc last week. hmmmm
fourty thousand dollars for st joe seat arwa we dat not n nuff come back with d rest tomorow
I love my PM,,, THEY SAY NOW I BI-POLAR
Change requires longterm struggle. Authority can be challenged and beaten. Social movements can be pivotal forces. Disruptive activism works. Now is the time for Dominicans to stand with Linton to boycott independence celebrations it was Former Supreme Court Justice William Douglas who once said: “Power concedes nothing without a demand.”
Will that bring an end to the POVERTY problems in St Joe?? Monelle Williams say something
Ask PM. He is in charge
Bwavo!
Another Confirming point of spin and deceptions from The labour Regime….
