Patriotic Front political leader and the party’s candidate for Couva North, Mickela Panday, criticised the country’s political and financial climate, highlighting racial division encouraged by leaders and exploitation by the banking sector.

At the party’s first political meeting for the 2025 general election at the Chaguanas South Secondary School on April 19, she said under a Patriotic Front government, the banking sector would be reformed to put people before profit.

She said since 2014 the country’s economy suffered because of a fall in energy prices and a worsening foreign exchange crisis.
