Octavia Alfred in all the awardees who received awards which one of them is not a labourite, and do you know anything about the irrigation project that was done in your community and the amount of money it cost to do it and the reason it is just there languishing ?
Lord somebody just sent to read a comment there. I seeing my crosses wee. Whoever fatpork is. Thank you and hope you continue to do well. I am sure some of us turn will come. After all, if the committee does all of us in one year, this would be expensive and there would be no ceremony next year. We are all proud of where we have taken this beautiful community called Castle Bruce. Those who received awards deserved it, because they have contributed a lot. Please do not be upset, the best is yet to come and later will be greater. As long as Mr. Johnson Drigo is around people’s effort will not go unnoticed. He always thanks people for their work every time he sees us. He commends us outside of awards ceremony. so just remember our time will come and it’s all about Castle Bruce our beautiful village.
It is good to see positive things happening in my community. keep up the good work CB let our village get back to what it used the be A Light
Congrats to all the awardees. God blessings be upon you all and the organizers
BON DIEX lOOK zARFAIRE. Them same people that on the Events Planning Committee is they that get them awards. awa man
Castle Bruce people are very unfair. They like strangers only for what they can get and how much they can abuse them. Most of the work on the ground is done by strangers who live in Castle Bruce. There is not a single nurse from castle bruce at the health center. They have those real castle bruce people sitting around minding people business and the real hard workers are not recognize. Take for example (Teacher Bonit) who has killed herself in Education in Castle Bruce for more than 30 years. That was the best teacher in my time. That lady knows how to make any child learn. Up to christmas eve she there in school with children. she fix the primary school and went on to fix up secondary school. Good thing that lady doesn’t do stuff for reward from man. I know she is not going to like what I am doing here. but if I was in Dominica that would not pass so. Come on man Jono you know better and you too phia, she made your daughter learn when you your yourself gave up. Be fair man
good things going on in cb ,,,,
congrats to those who got awards… especially to teacher jovin……
