THE RESPONSE OF PLPS TO THE THREAT
The former Prime Minister Hubert Minnis spoke to the press of The Bahamas on 10 March 2022. They reported the following on 11 March 2022: “It’s a stupid and immature statement, an irresponsible statement to be made by any Prime Minister and I can’t wait to get in Parliament to buss his ass and their ass for talking stupidness.” This was the comment of Mr. Minnis because he was accused of malfeasance in government with regard to the food distribution programme during the pandemic. So on the day the House was to meet on 16 March, the Chairman of the party Fred Mitchell called all PLPs to come to the defence of the Prime Minister by showing up in the public square. What happened next can only be considered a comedy. The former Prime Minister with all that hard mouth like a little school girl tattle tale went and wrote the Commissioner of Police to say that he apprehended he would be harmed on the way to the House if he did not get police protection. So there it was, as he went into the House he had six policemen around him but people were outside screaming at him calling him “a piece of shit”. He was also decried as the man who kept back people in slavery. Inside the House he was as unrepentant as ever claiming that the budget statement of the Prime Minister was the worst ever. But look whose talking . The wuss that he turned out to be with all that hard mouth, hiding behind the gown tail of the police force. A little punk they used to say when we were in school.
