Former deputy political leader of the People’s National Movement (PNM) Nafeesa Mohammed, who first backed the United National Congress (UNC) in 2020 after decades in the PNM, is doubling down ahead of tomorrow’s general election—declaring she will not vote for the party due to its record of weak governance.
“I can’t wait to vote. My finger is my weapon, and I am not voting for the PNM. And I make no bones about that,” Mohammed said during a telephone interview with the Sunday Guardian on Wednesday.
Mohammed blasted the PNM and the party’s leader Dr Keith Rowley’s handling of the repatriation of 97 nationals locked in camps in Syria and Iraq. She said a commitment was given by Rowley to bring these people home, but two years later, they are still languishing in camps in the two conflict zones and living in inhumane conditions.
