DA­REECE PO­LO

De­feat­ed Peo­ple's Na­tion­al Mover­ment (PNM) can­di­date for San Fer­nan­do West, Faris Al-Rawi, has told par­ty sup­port­ers that there will be a dif­fi­cult po­lit­i­cal jour­ney ahead.

“Folks of the PNM, ex­pect six months of ter­ror, tor­ture, lies, friv­o­li­ty, and per­se­cu­tion. And even though we have a tremen­dous­ly strong leader whom I back, as you all know, pub­licly, it re­quires every one of us in our red army–those that came out, those that stayed home, be­cause they didn’t go some­where else–to stand up in de­fence of this na­tion," Al-Rawi told a group of sup­port­ers who had gath­ered op­po­site Pres­i­dent's House to con­grat­u­late Op­po­si­tion Leader Pen­ne­lope Beck­les af­ter she re­ceived her in­stru­ment of ap­point­ment.
