Prime Minister Gaston Browne has criticized the opposition United Progressive Party (UPP) for what he described as a lack of substantive developmental plans for the St. Peter constituency ahead of the by-election.
Speaking on the government’s vision for the area, Browne highlighted the administration’s ongoing roadworks and proposed infrastructure projects as evidence of their commitment to tangible development.
“Our government has a detailed plan for St. Peter, including roadworks, the community center, and sports facilities,” Browne said. “In just a few weeks, we’ve done more road repairs than all previous representatives combined.”
In contrast, the Prime Minister described the opposition’s campaign as focused on personal attacks rather than meaningful proposals.
“The UPP candidate spent his entire time on the platform talking about me and the Labour Party, without presenting a single plan for the constituency,” Browne said.
The government’s plans include the construction of concrete roads and enhancements to community infrastructure, with designs already prepared for projects such as the Parham Sports Development Complex.
Browne commended the ABLP’s candidate, Rawdon Turner, for his proactive approach. “Turner has demonstrated his commitment through consistent engagement with residents and a clear vision for St. Peter,” he said.
Browne urged voters to prioritize candidates with actionable plans.
“This election isn’t about personality or rhetoric; it’s about who can deliver real results for St. Peter,” he said.
The St. Peter by-election has become a focal point for both parties, with infrastructure and community development emerging as key issues in the campaign.
