“Any claim to better management of the economy must ultimately reflect in the lives of the people.
“How have we been able to reduce the sufferings of our people and make life easier for them after three and half years in office?

“We have further reduced tariffs by 50% for the months of April May and June this year.
“We have provided free water for households in April, May and June, petroleum prices have increased by half the rate that they did under the NDC. We have doubled the capitation grant, established NABCo, created jobs and stopped the freeze on recruitment in the public sector.” Read Full Story
