On Tuesday evening the Dominica Labour Party (DLP) held a rally in Wesley “To Elect Athenia Benjamin.”
The rally was addressed by many DLP candidates including Benjamin and prime minister, Roosevelt Skerrit.

I am not sue the PM hear the rep for Wesley. She is asking him to give back land that was taken from the people by the UWP so the the people of Wesley can revive agriculture. After 14 years now you all see it fit to ask for the to revive agriculture on the verge on of an elections, after seeing you all have a 85% chance of loosing. Did the lady hear what she was saying. The DLP might be feeling embarrassed now the allowed her to speak.
“sure”
channel 1 you know some of them must support labour so that a minister or maybe a PM can give them a handout to purchase dem weave
@too late – Indeed.
I see Athenia is going ROUGUE on Skerrit. Now who does this DUO remind you off? You all remember McCain And that’ Moose’ from Alaska right? We all know how that ended.
Enjoy your 15mins in the limelight!!
You are so true that’s are go comparison
Where did Athenia get he political education from I would like Wesley people to understand that when Skerrit give them back their land the Government and the Dominican people want them to know they have to return the money if the don’t have it ask Athenia for it.
More outsiders than villagers. I want to see how many of them are elegible to vote in Wesley .
Mr. PM, all these people I am seeing in the photos, do they have a job? They look confused. Please tell the why they must give you another chance and how you plan to improve their lives instead of all the lies about airport etc.
So let me ask you all. There is a clear line between the have’s and the have nots. The candidate will not where the Labour Ka Twavey. t
hey! hey hey! I’m NOT seeing anyone from Wesley in the pic at that rally. NOT even one (1) then that’s telling us something. workerssssssssss!
Oh my,, what’s wrong with the PM hand in Picture 23? The look on Gloria face in picture 1 is priceless. How many people were actually from Wesley?
That’s a scare from an accident he had. Not a supporter of the dip or the pm but I’d hate to think u were trying to be sarcastic about it…. That Wundt be cool
Interesting observation. re: photo 23. That scar can be ‘easily’ be corrected although, as black people, we are prone to even further hypertrophic scars (keloids)… says something about the PM.
I won’t be voting in Dominica’s election but I wish the best for the people of Dominica, especially those of Wesley.
I was wondering the same thing about that huge scar on the PM hand.
A whole set of unemployed and hungry people. See their faces. Poor them!
I wonder if Cleveland Dodds was there
Jew a few Wesley people are in those photos. More Woodfordhill and other villagers are there.
These were another set of paid supporters, enjoying their last weeks as having Skerro as the P.M
So sad many of them dont have a job and looks confused,Skerrit wearing his thousand dollar jeans you people are being taken for such a ride.
shut ur mouth …. wt happen … u sayin UWP gonna give jobs…LENNOX LINTON jus gonna bring dwn d country ryte to d sea … STOOOPPPP listening one side … listen to both sides,,, doe worrie bout his $1000 jeans … cuz i SURE U GET HELP FROM P.M SKERRIT smfh
Red red red we voting red
But i am looking at those pictures and is just few unemployed young people from Wesley I seeing. Labour walk with their people to make their crowd look good. Athenia I like you, but I love myself and i not going to take my own hand and vote you in to make me see more misery than what i seeing already. Bazil you have my vote. skerrit not going to go on no platform and say he had to feed me. I work hard and is quite capable of taking care of myself. H e too dam rude.
mi neh c no Wesley nigger dere…
By the way, DNO I am wondering a few ‘additional’ things – Why can’t women just learn to wear their natural hair instead of spending tons of money buying horse, pig or manufactured hair to put on their head?
DNO, you know what else that does confuse me? Why is it that some women will cut their long hair so short so as to resemble a man’s low haircut yet in the next day or two go and put on long fake hair?
I just watching a few photos of the gathering and I like but…….but…………
…….a few things not looking right (unless I’m sorely mistaken).
I wonder if is Skerrit that pay for some of the hairstyles on display? After all, he said he had to ‘feed’ the thousands. After 14 years of dat backward DLP government, people cannot feed themselves and have to be reliant in the thousands on mister for their feeding….and dis man is so brazen and bold-faced that he is boasting about it…
Wesley is blue we votein uwp ok
DNO it was not a ‘RALLY’ it was just a ‘PUBLIC MEETING’ and it was not to “ELECT” Athenia either, she is already the Parl Rep in waiting. There will be a series of such meetings so please confirm with the DLP PRO or Campaign Manager H.E Vince Henderson before posting misleading info.
Thank you

Yet again, more narrow street rally by dat backward Labour Party. First dem fellas went on the Bayfront; then dem go on a relatively narrow street in Castle Bruce to hold a next rally and now just look at where dem fellas have people nuh…
So Wesley haven’t got a much wider and comfortable space to hold a rally???
I wonder if dem fellas will hold their Roseau North meeting on the jetty near Fond Cole???
fear not my fren….you should hold on the that comment…
Wesley have a playing field and basketball court. They could have used their lights to light it up
It is called “bulking up”. Putting a crowd a restricted space makes it look bigger than in an open, unconfined space. In marketing perception and image are everything.
That’s what UWP did on the New town Savannah on Sunday!
