“The people of the Federation, who are the supreme arbiters of choice of government, have spoken clearly. As Chairman of the OECS, I extend warm congratulations to Prime Minister Harris and his Team Unity on his victory and I look forward to continuing the close collaborative relationship that exists at the OECS Authority as we collectively face the pestilential challenge of COVID-19 and its utterly devastating effect on our economies and livelihoods.”
The Chairman urged the second term Government to “not let up in its diligent management of the current pandemic in order to maintain the OECS as a zone of relative security.” He also expressed his satisfaction that, notwithstanding the intensity of the political contestation, the election process had been conducted in a peaceful manner and congratulated all contending parties and the people of the Federation.
