Antigua and Barbuda Festivals Commission Issues Public Apology to Ms. Jamona Samuel

The Antigua and Barbuda Festivals Commission wishes to publicly extend its sincere apologies to Ms. Jamona Samuel following an administrative error that occurred during the communication process related to the screening for the 2026 Queen of Carnival competition.

Following the completion of the screening process, an official congratulatory correspondence was mistakenly issued to Ms. Samuel, indicating that she had been selected as a contestant in the 2026 Queen of Carnival competition. The Commission acknowledges that this communication was sent in error and deeply regrets the disappointment and emotional distress it caused.

The Antigua and Barbuda Festivals Commission recognizes the importance of the Queen of Carnival platform and understands the dedication, preparation, and personal investment shown by all young women who put themselves forward for consideration. Accordingly, we acknowledge that the situation experienced by Ms. Samuel fell below the standard of professionalism and care that participants are entitled to expect.

The Commission takes full responsibility for this error and offers its sincerest apology to Ms Samuel for the impact this incident has had on her experience.

The Antigua and Barbuda Festivals Commission remains committed to strengthening internal communication and operational procedures to ensure greater accuracy, efficiency, and accountability.

We thank Ms. Samuel for raising her concerns and once again extend our sincere apologies.
