Skerrit speaking at a DLP campaign event<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has said that this is the easiest election for Dominicans to decide which party comes into power.<\/p>\n

In an interview with the State-Owned DBS Radio, Skerrit stated that if any citizen loves Dominica, they will vote for the Dominica Labour Party (DLP) as his team has outlined its vision and plans for the country.<\/p>\n

The prime minister will be going up against the new United Workers Party (UWP) Candidate for Vielle Case, CLement Marcellin and as far as Skerrit is concerned, Marcellin poses no threat to him.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe people know who has been with them for the last 20 years especially in difficult times; they have known where the constituency was when I became the member of parliament in 2000. From a national standpoint, we have absolutely no doubt that labour is going to return victorious,\u201d he maintains.<\/p>\n

Skerrit added that what the DLP has done for Dominica, especially after Hurricane Maria, has been exceptional and believes a vast majority of Dominicans have recognized that DLP is the party for the future.<\/p>\n

He said the opposition is\u00a0about destruction and violence and\u00a0has no vision for Dominica.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has said that this is the easiest election for Dominicans to decide which party comes into power.
