Comment of the week
THE BELL HAS RUNG AND FNM’S GONE CRAZY
On Wednesday 1 April 2026, Prime Minister Philip Davis announced that there will be a general election in The Bahamas on 12 May 2026. The House will be dissolved on 8 April 2026. That means that is the last day for registering as a voter is 8 April 2026. The proverbial question will now be put. Will it be the PLP returned or the FNM returned?
There is no doubt that we think that the PLP should be returned. The policies of the PLP have served the country well with its credit rating intact, the policy reforms showing fruit with crime down, education results better, tourism flourishing, transport more organized and energy prices going down.
We are more respected than ever in the international arena. Good for us. We think the people should choose the PLP. Here is the full statement of the Prime Minister:
“Pursuant to Article 66(2) of the Constitution of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, I will advise the Governor General to dissolve Parliament on Wednesday, 8 April 2026,” he stated. “Pursuant to Article 67(1) of the Constitution, the Writs of Election will be issued on Thursday, 9 April 2026, and the General Election will be held on Tuesday, 12 May 2026.”
“I also wish to remind the public that if you currently hold a valid purple voter’s card, your registration remains valid and there is no need to register again,” Prime Minister Davis added. “The law provides that if you are on the current register of voters, you are entitled to vote.”
To those who were registering for the first time, have moved and need to transfer, or need to verify their information, he encouraged them to “do so without delay”.
“Under the Parliamentary Elections Act, the register of voters for the general election closes at the end of Wednesday, 8 April 2026,” he pointed out. “With Writs of Election being issued on 9 April 2026, the statutory cutoff for registration and transfers is the end of Wednesday, 8 April 2026.”
“As we move through this election season, I ask every Bahamian to remember one simple truth: wherever we may fall politically, we all love this country,” he added. “Long after the campaign is over, we will still be one people, sharing one home, with one future to build together.
“I encourage every eligible Bahamian to take part in this process with seriousness, respect, and faith in our democracy.”

Editorial
----------THE GRAND BAHAMA PORT PULLED DOWN THE PLP’S SIGNS
Duane Sands, the Chairman of the FNM, told the real story about the Grand Bahama Port Authority pulling down the signs of the PLP in Freeport. The Port claimed that it was all a legal issue. No it was not. It was a political issue. The Port’s plaintive cries to law ring hollow. Duane Sands said they put up the FNM signs in Freeport to force the Port to take down the PLP signs. The Port pulled down the PLP signs. The line is now drawn in the sand. If PLPs think that they can play footsie with the Grand Bahama Port Authority, we hope you now see that these people are not for the PLP. They are said to be funding Michael Pintard heavily.
THE WAR THAT MAKES NO SENSE
It looks like the United States is running out of targets to bomb in Iran. They are now bombing bridges in Iran. This stands in the face of a warning by former U S President Bill Clinton that bombing civilian infrastructure is a war crime. However, the Secretary of Defence of the United States has made it clear that he will not be governed by rules of war. The war with Iran has caused untold damage to the world economy. Oil prices have shot up around the world. That means the costs of travel, food and other commodities are not far behind. Yet this war that makes no sense against an opponent that meant no harm to the United States continues. Lord how long?
NOT MY GOOD SON AS DORIS STUDENT SENTENCED
Two students at Doris Johnson were sentenced last week to serving at Programme Sure. That is the programme that is meant for recalcitrant students who need more structured behaviour management. The mother of one of the boys objected. She said that her boy didn’t do any of the things that took place in a video that went viral of children fighting at the school. Then after that statement she listed at least four different fights that he has been in before that but she claims that in each of those her son was the poor defenseless victim. The lawyers call it similar fact. Her statements were ludicrous. She is lucky the boy is being allowed back in school. He is known in the school as a drug dealer.
THE PLP SHOULD WIN THIS ELECTION
We agree with the Chairman of the Progressive Liberal Party Fred Mitchell that when you look at the facts, the PLP deserves another term in office, another five years of growth and prosperity. One of the most stupid things we have heard was that last week from Dr. Duane Sands, the Chairman of the FNM. He claims that the fact that there are posters with both the Leader of the PLP and the candidate for the PLP around town, that this means that the PLP candidates cannot stand on their own. We argue the reverse: it shows the FNM that they have to hide their leader, because his presence cannot enhance the candidates of the FNM. The policy mix, the policy successes: on education, immigration, transportation, energy, finance, tourism, all show that the PLP should be given an opportunity to repeat the term in office.
THE BAHAMAS SHOULD SUPPORT CARLA BARNETT FOR SG
The Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago is on a mission to destroy CARICOM, the vehicle of the Commonwealth Caribbean and Haiti, that was founded by amongst others Eric Williams, Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago. He would be rolling over in his grave today, if he heard the nonsense that the now Prime Minister is spinning. Last week we quoted her as saying that CARICOM was a failure for 52 years and would continue to be a failure. She is a liar and her comments are disgraceful. No CARICOM leader has spoken to refute what she said but we think as columnists it is important to urge the government of The Bahamas to speak up. We think especially that we ought to give public assurances to Carla Barnett, the Secretary General of CARICOM for her stellar work and congratulate her on her reappointment notwithstanding the negative commentary about her by the Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago.
FNM LIES ON IMMIGRATION AND PASSPORTS
WE have often asked the question in this column why the FNM feels it has to use lies and subterfuge in order to win an election. We suppose the answer is obvious. It has worked for them in the past. What we hope is that the Bahamian public is smarter than that this time. They should know that last time the FNM fired 2500 civil servants within three days of coming to office. We also know that the FNM cancelled one project after the next, causing hundreds of jobs to be lost in the construction sector. Now they want to come back again. They are not even in yet and promising to right size the public service and stop review and cancel the new hospital, and close down the Post Office Savings Bank. What a sad bunch. What is really vexing though are the lies they are making up on passports. Passports are not fraudulent. There is not the slightest evidence of that. But they keep that as part of their national talking points.
Letters to the editor
BOAT PEOPLE
– REV KEITH RUSSELL ON THE PLP SIGNS IN GRAND BAHAMA
We are living on a planet with a constantly increasing number of boat people—refugees. They are fleeing war and feminine and ethnic cleansing and unspeakable violence.
In many cases, they are heading over treacherous seas and landing on the unwelcoming shores of European countries, where they are met with the vilest assaults on their humanity.
The historical irony is that most of these refugees come from African nations. These Africans have a right to be there. These Europeans ought to and make space, transform their society to be more accommodating, to be more multicultural, and to be more human.
I hear you. But here is the thing, history and facts are stubborn, unrelenting. One of our great cultural icons Arlene Nash tells the story of a junkanooer who comes to the shack during the season for his costume. In a marvelous turn of phrase he says: I come to get me.
After 400 years of theft from Africa, the theft of its artifacts, gold, silver, rubber, uranium, cobalt and human flesh, upon which all of these European nations built their Empires and started the industrial revolution, how dear they tell Africans that they are unwelcome to their shores. Their entire existence is built on African labor and resources. One can say that the Africans are coming to Europe to get me.
And speaking about boat people, more than 90% of the ancestors of all Bahamians came here on a boat. And when they came they were not legal or free. Unless we can trace our ancestry to the Tainos, we are squatters with longevity. Therefore, we should be very careful how we use this squatters’ privilege, this gift.
This is why it is so disturbing that Mr. Pintard and his minions, in their gravelicious and desperate attempt to gain power, would choose as a center piece of their platform, an appeal to the base elements of our Bahamian psyche, stoking the vilest vitriol and hatred and xenophobia.
Through their theatrics and lies, they have many Bahamians believing that the Government of the Bahamas is engaged in a massive giving away of Bahamian passports and citizenship. Although the facts demonstrate that the system against fraud in these matters is working, in the number of prosecutions in our courts, facts don’t matter to these irresponsible desperadoes.
In their manipulative view, only FNMs love their country; only FNMs are willing to protect our sovereignty; utter nonsense. Again history and facts are stubborn.
We Bahamians must decide if we want progress, if we want a kinder and gentler nation; if we want to tone down the hate. Our neighbors to the North is a cautionary tale of where it leads when we follow the thinking on immigration espoused in the public square by these reckless FNM’s.
We have laws in our nation and international conventions we have signed that help us govern how we deal with persons who come to our shores illegally; and they are being followed. But we shouldn’t need laws for us to treat each other with common decency, or to be respectful.
Today, we remember the execution of (James Cone calls it the lynching of) a Palestinian, from the Galilee; from an obscure little town called Nazareth. Let that sink in.
Let us never ignore or dismiss the humanity of the other. Call them by their name. One of the ways of thinking about it is that we are all boat people. Be kind.
I write; you decide
Progress Is Not a Performance—It Is a Record
– ABIGAIL CARTWRIGHT FROM DEAN’S BLUE HOLE
Every election season, a familiar narrative resurfaces: that visible progress—new clinics, upgraded airports, improved roads—is suddenly manufactured to “fool the people.” It is a convenient accusation, but a deeply flawed one.
Infrastructure does not materialize in a matter of weeks. Clinics in Cat Island, Rum Cay, and San Salvador did not appear overnight. The nearly $500 million in roadworks across the Family Islands did not begin last month. The redevelopment of Exuma International Airport, the upgrades in Mayaguana, Grand Bahama, Long Island, Abaco, Bimini, and North Eleuthera—these are the result of years of planning, financing, environmental review, and execution. Ribbon cuttings mark completion, not conception.
To suggest otherwise is to underestimate the intelligence and lived experience of a mature, discerning electorate. Professionals understand timelines, procurement, and project cycles. They know that sustained development reflects sustained governance.
The record is clear: this administration has delivered tangible, measurable upgrades to national infrastructure—clinics, airports, roads—with more in motion, including major hospital expansions in Grand Bahama and New Providence. This is not rhetoric; it is reality on the ground.
Contrast that with promises absent of credible foundation. A pledge to build 5,000 homes, unsupported by past delivery, raises legitimate concern. A proposal to distribute $200 monthly child support, without structural safeguards, risks fostering dependency, straining public finances, and failing to address root economic challenges such as employment, childcare access, and upward mobility. Where are the real plans to improve on the progress already established?
Progress is not accidental. It is deliberate, consistent, and cumulative.
The choice before the nation is not between promises and criticism—it is between proven momentum and the real risk of disruption.
Do not mistake timing for coincidence. Recognize continuity for what it is: progress worth protecting.

PORT SEND PLP A MESSAGE
– FELIX SANDS WRITES ABOUT THE GRAND BAHAMA PORT
In the quiet of the late night, Tuesday, 31st March and under cover of darkness,
The Grand Bahama Port Authority pulled up every PLP candidate poster board that was erected in recent days in the City of Freeport. An audacious act that could have caused serious trouble and inflamed passions.
The Port Authority, by that act, sent a clear message to the PLP and by extension the Davis Administration. “We are not for you.”
It is now clear that the Port Authority has not come to terms with this short man from Cat Island, as he is referred to in some circles, who have dared to hold these local” Nobles” to account. How dare he! On August 1st, each year until 2054, the GBPA will have to pay the government of The Bahamas a sum of money (to be determined) as was pronounced by the Arbitration Tribunal from which there is no appeal.
The City of Freeport and its environment is being propped up by the government of the Bahamas through the Ministry For Grand Bahama. The city is too big to fail. The city requires a capital injection for its infrastructure upkeep.
The infrastructure is in need of urgent attention: street signs and road markers are left unattended. Side roads tell the story; and a blind eye is turned to indiscriminate dumping all over the city.
The arbitrators describe the current dilemma of the GBPA as balance sheet insolvent. In local terms, the company is broke.
The Port by its action have miscalculated badly by backing themselves into a corner and has thrown caution to the wind; and gambling on Michael Pintard who will lose because of his unwavering defense of GBPA, and his unwillingness to to stand up for the people who elected him.
Finally, the country has taken note of the Boarish Behavior of this broke Grand Bahama Port Authority. Good manners should never be interpreted as weakness.

ANDREW ALLEN REMINDS US OF BAD FNM GOVERNANCE
This letter first appeared in the Nassau Guardian Thursday 2 April 2026:
For those with short memories, the last time we followed the dictates of the deeply biased local media and elected the Free National Movement to office, the consequences proved even worse than those of us who knew better could have imagined.
Predictably, the party that has opposed every positive step in our country’s development since the early 1970s left us in an unenviable state.
Taxes on the poor were increased, minimum wage saw no rise and private interests prospered at the expense of Bahamians in areas ranging from healthcare (where the emphasis switched from free, universal access to “user fees”) to criminal justice (where residents of Lyford Cay got exemptions from COVID rules to bury their pets, while residents of Bain Town got arrested for visiting outdoor water pumps).
In all of the positive senses, we are where we are as a country because of progressive policies pursued primarily by Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) administrations. These policies created our middle class and our social safety net and made us easily the most successful majority-Black independent country in history.
On the other hand, most of our major blunders and self-inflicted harm (like rolling back Bahamianization and selling off public assets) have flowed from the instincts and policies of the party that still pushes the primitive capitalist/colonialist ideology that flourished here up to 1967.
Once again, under a responsible PLP government, we are seeing advances in almost every area that matters to the mass of Bahamians (though obviously not to the editorialized media).
Energy and public infrastructure are being dramatically improved and geographically spread throughout the islands; new investments are being made in skills development for young people (like BPATH and the Opportunity Hub) and significant investment is again being made in affordable housing (an area almost totally neglected by every Free National Movement (FNM) administration to date).
It would be the height of stupidity for us to turn back at this point. But dumber things have happened.
— Andrew Allen
