Chief Sec­re­tary and To­ba­go Peo­ple’s Par­ty, TPP, po­lit­i­cal leader Far­ley Au­gus­tine says next month’s To­ba­go House of As­sem­bly elec­tion is a fight to keep the is­land “out of the hands of Sa­tan and his chil­dren,” as he asked sup­port­ers to treat Jan­u­ary 12 as the most de­ci­sive vote in mod­ern To­ba­go his­to­ry.

Speak­ing at the Bon Ac­cord and Crown Point TPP meet­ing on Tues­day night, Au­gus­tine framed the elec­tion as a turn­ing point for To­ba­go, call­ing on vot­ers to pro­tect the is­land from forces he said were de­ter­mined to “pull To­ba­go back­wards.”

He warned sup­port­ers not to un­der­es­ti­mate what is at stake. At one point in his al­most hour-long ad­dress, Au­gus­tine said the cam­paign went far be­yond par­ty loy­al­ty.
