Pres­sure con­tin­ues to mount with­in the Trin­ba­go Uni­fied Ca­lyp­so­ni­ans’ Or­gan­i­sa­tion (TU­CO) as fi­nan­cial mem­bers for­mal­ly called for an Ex­tra­or­di­nary Gen­er­al Meet­ing (EGM), cit­ing con­sti­tu­tion­al pro­vi­sions and se­ri­ous con­cerns aris­ing out of Car­ni­val 2026.

In a press re­lease dat­ed Feb­ru­ary 26, mem­bers con­firmed that the re­quest was sub­mit­ted in keep­ing with Ar­ti­cle 25 of TU­CO’s Con­sti­tu­tion, which al­lows for an EGM once at least ten per cent of the fi­nan­cial mem­ber­ship sup­ports the req­ui­si­tion.

The re­lease not­ed that the con­sti­tu­tion re­quires an up­dat­ed list of fi­nan­cial mem­bers to be read­i­ly avail­able, par­tic­u­lar­ly when Ar­ti­cle 25 is ac­ti­vat­ed.
