The call for a nationwide shutdown on Friday continues and according to social activist and organiser Alyssa Phillip, it is an opportunity for citizens to let their voices be heard in a peaceful manner.
Indicating this was the 18th such instalment in the 19 Bullets, 19 Protests Campaign, which was launched as she demanded justice for Joshua Samaroo and Kaia Sealy, Phillip advised, “This is a call for the nation of T&T to stay home from work, to close down business places and to really show what grieves you the most within our country.”
Distancing herself from claims that the justice call had taken on a political face and that her ire was being directed at politicians, including Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar, Phillip denied this.
