PNM's prospective candidate for Diego Martin West Hans Des Vignes says he aims to build on the foundation already established in the constituency and strengthen his connection with the constituents once elected as MP in the April 28 general election.

Des Vignes spoke to Newsday on April 1, prior to a walkabout in the constituency. He and his team were also preparing to launch his campaign office on Broome Street, Diego Martin.

Des Vignes, a former broadcaster and media personality, officially entered the political arena on February 17, when he was selected by the PNM's screening committee to contest the seat.
