Comment of the week
CRY BABY FNMS ON POWER BLACKOUTS AND OTHER THINGS
Last week we had to endure power cuts in New Providence. That is an incontrovertible fact. No one runs away from that, least of all the PLP. The Minister for Energy JoBeth Coleby Dais was under fire as she explained that what we are experiencing is a combination of legacy issues and bad luck. That was not good enough for some people.
Next the professionals who actually run BPL came out in a press conference on Tuesday 4 August 2026 to explain in detail that the problems were complex but mainly the same story as the Minister. If there was any fault as we look back on this, it was over promising in the spring time that there was enough generation capacity and giving the impression that there would be no problems with BPL. Now we know differently and we hope the lesson drawn, one of them, is not to over promise.
The professionals did not satisfy the critics. Led by former Prime Minister Hubert Minnis, they picked the professionals apart. They did not believe it had anything to do with bad lines. They did not believe that it had anything to do with the heat. They did not believe that the legacy issues had anything to do with it.
A parade of critics, all of whom are associated with the FNM administration of Hubert Minnis, who failed to solve the problems when in office, lined up with their criticisms. We start with Dr. Minnis, then Michael Pintard, then Shanendon Cartwright, then Desmond Bannister, then Michaela Barnett-Ellis, then Wheatley Heastie, former BPL executive, then Duane Sands. They all trashed what the professionals had to say. Their journalistic amanuensis Candia Dames chimed in that JoBeth Coleby Davis ought to resign.
Our answer to all of it is cry baby sour lime. Fiddle sticks. They did not solve the power problem when in power but have plenty to say now.
Next up for criticism was a demo held by Michael Pintard on Friday 7 August 2026 to defend a lady claiming victimization in the hiring at Beaches and Parks Authority, now headed by Jamahl Strachan, MP for Nassau Village. He quickly pointed out that the lady in question had resigned and resigned voluntarily. End of story. But that was not enough for the group headed by Michael Pintard who sat in a government that fired 2500 public servants when they came to office in 2017.

Editorial
----------HOW BPL CAN MAKE AMENDS
Given all the public controversy about the Bahamas Power and Light and its inability to supply power to the customers of New Providence and other islands, and to quell the public ire, our view is that BPL ought to find some way to make amends. Normally what should happen is BPL should make good the damage they have caused by ruining the equipment and food of their customers. That should still be a remedy available in law but for many customers that is probably out of reach because of the expenses of having to pursue that remedy in the courts. There is also a suspicion that BPL has some regulatory limitations in their contract of power supply that might limit that as a private remedy. Our suggestions are these. They should not bill any customer for the next billing cycle or they should discount severely the bills for the next ninety days. Perhaps that will help quiet the noise. In the mean time we sincerely hope that the professionals that we have defended at BPL are getting it right and the disruptions will stop or be seriously abated.
THE LABOUR SITAUTION IN GRAND BAHAMA AND THE COUNTRY
The Minister for Foreign Affairs and Immigration Fred Mitchell will visit Grand Bahama next week for a series of meetings with stakeholders on the labour situation in that island. In comes in the face of complaints from Bahamians in Grand Bahama that they are being planned out of the economic benefits of the city. Nowhere is this complaint more voluble that in the Grand Bahama Shipyard. The Bahamians complain that scores of foreign workers are doing jobs that Bahamians can do. The company replies that they are unable to find Bahamians with the skills to fill the jobs they need done in a timely fashion and at the speed with which they are demanded. Into the mix comes the Immigration Department. Fred Mitchell indicated that there is a review that the government is doing with regard to labour and this includes the mass employers in Grand Bahama and the management hiring practices of the hotel sector across the country. In the hotel sector, Mr. Mitchell indicated that there appears to be a glass ceiling where Bahamians can only get so high in the sector but not into management positions in the nation’s number one industry. He says that the Department of Immigration will work with the Department of Labour to get to the bottom of the issue and in the best interests of the Bahamian people.
BELINDA’S HAIL MARY PASS TO SAVE THE TEACHER’S UNION
On Tuesday 4 August 2026 a strange missive went around. The loud mouth, rowdy President of the Bahamas Union of Teacher Belinda Wilson was sending out an invitation for all unions to come under one umbrella union. She claimed that this would be in the best interest of the labour movement and she was moved to see that this happened. Well this seemed like a Damascus moment but then these things don’t happen spontaneously. The question is why did the invitation come about? The back chat is that Belinda Wilson is in deep trouble. People on both sides including her members are tired of the bellicose style and want it to stop. The end result is she is losing members because she cannot get anything done without rowing and other unions are encroaching on her membership and she is losing dues. That would cause a Damascus moment. It could not happen to a finer person.
THE AMERICANS MAKE UP MORE CHARGES ON POOR GARDENER
On 12 May 2026, the evidence is by misadventure a plane crash carrying 12 Bahamians landed in waters near Melbourne, Florida, 245 miles off course. The people on aboard all survived. They were later released after rescue from the coastguard. The trip was a routine trip of voters seeking to cast their ballots in a general election being held that day in The Bahamas. On that trip happened to be a man named Eric Gardener. From all accounts, while convicted previously for drug trafficking, he was out of that life and was on the straight and narrow, performing various contractual work for the government. The Americans say not. They instead took a month to pin charges on him that he smuggled or conspired to smuggle drugs into their country. They have held him largely incommunicado since that time and have shuffled him from court to court. He is now in New York awaiting the trial in a country where no Bahamian can get a fair trial. The DEA agent who swore the affidavit in support of the first arrest made up a story about cash that was found on the flight in Bahamian dollars, claiming that it was consistent with money bundled for drug trafficking. Bahamian dollars are not the currency of drug traffickers. It was ridiculous on the face of it. The whole case seemed a tissue of lies designed to ensnare Bahamian officials who had nothing to do with it. Now last week, they came up with a new story. This time they say he was trying to smuggle drugs into Georgia. This is almost certainly another false story, designed to sweat poor Mr. Gardener who is their captive by happenstance into saying stuff that will again ensnare Bahamian politicians. American justice at its finest. Next week, they will probably indict him for smuggling drugs into Nebraska. That’s how ridiculous the whole thing is.
BRUCE GOLDING LAYS IT ALL OUT ON US CARICOM RELATIONS
We applaud former Prime Minister of Jamaica Bruce Golding for his forthright statements about United States foreign policy. It is a foreign policy by threat. Everything is do what is say or else. Here is a transcript of what he had to
Say as reported by CVN News in Jamaica on 4 August 2026:
New rules are being handed down. Not after discussion or negotiation, but by social media posts at 2 30 in the morning when most of us are asleep. .
New tariffs were imposed on us in January of last year. Tariffs on the goods that we export to America. Although, America enjoys a huge trade surplus with Jamaica. What we export to the United States is less than a quarter of what we import.
Countries and companies that do business with Cuba run the risk of incurring severe penalties. We are being forced to contribute to the strangulation of the Cuban people who have helped us in so many ways.
Secretary of State, Marco Rubio when he visited Jamaica in March of last year is only the latest highly placed American official who has boasted of the strong, long-standing bond of friendship between Jamaica and the United States.
But let us be very clear, what is being done to us is not friendship. Holding a gun to your head and insisting that you must be reasonable and do things their way. That is not friendship.
The United States has put us under severe stress. That’s not what friends are for.

$265 Million: Accountability or Political Theatre?
ABAGAIL CARTWRIGHT’S DEAN’S BLUE HOLE
The latest political storm over the National Investment Fund raises an important question—but perhaps not the one the Opposition wants Bahamians to ask.
The FNM looks for every opportunity to spin some sort of narrative that attempts to convince the public that the PLP government is corrupt. It gets their social media trolls outraged and creates theater, and the leader of the opposition, Mr. Michael Pintard, never asks the right questions.
Yes, the public deserves to know how every dollar of public money is used. Absolutely! Transparency is not a favour; it is an obligation of government.
But accountability must work both ways.
The suggestion that money moving through the National Investment Fund automatically represents some financial wrongdoing risks turning a legitimate question into political theatre. The Government has explained that excess borrowing receipts were transferred into the Fund and that significant resources have been directed toward national infrastructure, including the ambitious Family Island Airport Renaissance. These are not abstract numbers. Nothing untoward. They represent airports, runways, terminals and infrastructure intended to connect Bahamians to opportunity.
The Opposition is perfectly entitled to scrutinise the Government. That is democracy.
But scrutiny should demand facts—not insinuations or innuendos.
Perhaps the better question, Mr. Pintard, is not simply, “Where did the money go?” It is: “What did the Bahamian people get for it?”
If the answer is modern infrastructure, improved connectivity, and greater economic opportunity for communities that have too often been treated as afterthoughts, then the Government deserves credit for investing beyond Nassau.
At the same time, Government must welcome the questions, provide the documentation and make the numbers understandable, which they promised they will do because public money belongs to the Bahamian people.
That is accountability—not political noise.

Hawksbill Creek Agreement and the RESET needed.
Felix Sands writes from Freeport
Tuesday 4th, August 2026, marked the 71st Anniversary of the signing of the Hawksbill Creek Agreement. The occasion passed without any public statements from the Grand Bahama Port Authority; that seemed curious, and we wondered why? Could it be because of the antics after the arbitration rulings that came in March this year? The arbitration ruling made clear The Sovereign Right of the government of the Bahamas and, by extension, the Supremacy of Parliament of the Bahamas. It has also made clear that the Port Authority would have to pay an annual fee (based on a sum of Monies to be agreed) and moving forward to the Bahamas Government. So, could it be the anniversary only marked another year of liability that has become due to the government by the Port Authority that has yet payed anything thus far?
Let me say at the outset that Freeport Grand Bahama holds greatest opportunity for the swiftest growth and development in this country. Given the geopolitical instability on the world stage today; Grand Bahama’s proximity to the United States gives us the quickest turnaround time for redevelopment. Notwithstanding the aging and somewhat dilapidated infrastructure of the city.
If Freeport is to take advantage of this opportunity there must be a “Reset “. The city requires an injection of hundreds of Millions of dollars in capital to set the dilapidated infrastructure back on a solid footing. The infrastructure all over the city is in need of urgent attention. Some developers licensed by the GBPA have walked away from their responsibilities as Developers of various subdivisions. The Taino Beach Bridge and the public drama surrounding the crumbling Port Lucaya Marina tells the story of a Grand Bahama Port Authority that’s on life support and starved of the very Capital needed to reinvest. The Port Lucaya Marketplace Marina, tells the embarrassing story that the Grand Bahama Port Authority and the Grand Bahama Development company are at odds with one another .
The only assets left that the Port Authority has not divested it selves off are the GB Utility company, Freeport Harbor company, and its ability to license. The company has divested itself of all the other assets.
The government of the Bahamas now owns the city’s Airport and Grand Bahama Power Company. Key components of the City’s infrastructure. On this present trajectory, the GBPA will soon turn over the crumbling roads of
Freeport to the government. God forbid!
The Law Lords in the arbitration determination describe the Grand Bahama Port Authority as balance sheet insolvent. Clearly wisdom dictates that personal emotions that has often times taken place of better judgment should now be placed on the shelf. The Grand Bahama Port Authority must now find an investor partner with the financial ability to set things straight, or alternatively, find a buyer with the financial capacity to breed New Life into a aging City that has never realized its full potential. One way or the other, the monies that is owing to the government, and the people, of the Bahamas must be paid.
Freeport, the city located 90 miles east of West Palm Beach, Florida must not fail; and, the government of the Bahamas must not blink. According to the agreement itself, the arbitration once final, does not allow for an appeal.
The government holds the stick called “insolvency” and the law is clear on how it is dealt with. Again, the government must not blink. Recalcitrant Investors, or not.
Felix Sands

THE PLP CHAIRMAN LAYS OUT THE CASE ON POWER CUTS
The following statement was issued by the Chairman of the Progressive Liberal Party in answer to the complaints about the power disruptions by Bahamas Power and Light. Mr. Mitchell said that those who are piling on complaints and criticisms were the ones who had the responsibility under the FNM and Hubert Minnis to fix the problems but they did not:
For Immediate Release
6 August 2026
The PLP on this power issue believes the science and the advice of the Bahamian professionals who have been assembled to deal with the legacy and future issues of BPL.
The comments of Desmond Bannister, Whitney Heastie, Michaela Barnett Ellis, Shannendon Cartwright , Duane Sands, Candia Dames and last but not least Michael Pintard are interesting descriptions, nice history lessons and expected Opposition outrage. We clap our hands for them on those points but ask them: how does it help our present problems?
The short is answer is the comments do not help. Instead they seem designed to undercut the work of the professionals on the job and create greater anxiety in the population. Instead of urging patience, they are exacerbating the situation.
One thing is clear and certain: all the names that I listed worked for or were a part of or supported the Hubert Minnis’ Free National Movement administration.
Isn’t it interesting that having been divided over the general election they have all come together over electricity blackouts? Wonders never cease.
The next thing that is clear is that whatever happened during their time in government, whatever they did, it did not stop what is happening today. That is a straightforward historic fact. Not blaming them but they did not fix the problem.
The maxim is clear: they who come to equity must come with clean hands.
The Bible says it another way. We must confess our sins. God is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins.
We invite these FNM partisans to take our sound humbly offered advice, then go out in peace to love and serve the people of The Bahamas.
As for BPL let’s leave that to the professionals. Let us give them an honest chance to fix the problem. We all appreciate how the system has underperformed. Let us encourage these professionals to get it fixed instead of undermining them.
