One year af­ter a de­ci­sive elec­tion vic­to­ry, Gov­ern­ment Sen­a­tors have giv­en the Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress (UNC) ad­min­is­tra­tion a near-per­fect re­port card, pro­ject­ing a nar­ra­tive of tri­umph and “bet­ter days”.

This comes even as in­de­pen­dent voic­es warn that the tran­si­tion from cam­paign rhetoric to the re­al­i­ty of the trea­sury is far from com­plete.

Tourism and In­vest­ment Min­is­ter Satyaka­ma Ma­haraj, Min­is­ter in the Min­istry of Hous­ing Phillip Ed­ward Alexan­der and Par­lia­men­tary Sec­re­tary in the Min­istry of Sport David Nakhid, all rat­ed the Gov­ern­ment’s first 365 days with scores that leave al­most no room for cri­tique.
