From Support to Disappointment: Action Over Talk

I once supported Mr. Kelvin “Shugy” Simon with hope and belief, like many others in the constituency. Today, however, that hope has turned into disappointment. What we are seeing now is too much talk and very little action.

Mr. Simon, the people need more than words. Stop the critics and do the work. The constituency needs you now, before it is too late. Leadership is about presence, service, and results, not speeches alone.

I watch Mr. Dwayne George continues to work for the people. Every other Thursday, food is distributed to those in need within the SMS constituency. He is actively involved in community service and makes himself available each Thursday at his branch to meet directly with the people of the constituency. That is leadership in action.

I drive home from work, and I often see Mr. George engaged directly with his constituents, and they need leaders who show up consistently. Action will always speak louder than words.

The people are watching, listening, and waiting, but patience is running out.

If people choose to vote for Mr. George, I would understand why.

The people see effort. They see engagement. They see action.
SMS needs leadership through action, not excuses.

PS I am a strong UPP supporter, We need you, Shuggs
