Police in Layou are currently on the scene after a woman was shot and killed only moments ago. Officers responded to reports of gunfire and found the victim with critical injuries. She was pronounced dead shortly after authorities arrived. Investigators have cordoned off the area and are gathering evidence while interviewing nearby residents. No information about a suspect or motive has been released at this time. Police say more details are expected later today as the investigation develops.

In one of the most dramatic political shifts in recent memory, the New Democratic Party (NDP) swept to power last night with a commanding majority, ending the long rule of the Unity Labour Party (ULP) in a landslide that shocked analysts and party loyalists alike. Early results signaled trouble for the ULP, but few expected the scale of the collapse. Constituencies long considered safe turned sharply toward the NDP, delivering what observers are already calling a historic realignment. A Collapse Years in the Making After more than a decade in office, the ULP struggled with internal fractures, growing public frustration,…

The New Democratic Party (NDP) has secured victory in the general election, marking a major shift in the country’s political landscape. The win ends years of Unity Labour Party (ULP) governance and ushers in a new era under the NDP’s leadership. Preliminary results announced late Tuesday night indicated that the NDP claimed the majority of parliamentary seats, prompting celebrations across several communities. Supporters gathered in Kingstown and other districts, waving party flags and cheering as results rolled in.

At a spirited Unity Labour Party (ULP) rally last night, Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves delivered an emotional appeal to supporters and former party faithful, urging them to “come back home to Labour” as the nation moves toward another crucial political showdown. Speaking to an energized crowd, PM Gonsalves repeated his message with visible passion:“Please, please — come back home to Labour if you’re a stray. Help us to lift you. Help us to lift these comrades up. We’re going to first-world status, and we can get there together.” The Prime Minister framed the upcoming contest against the New Democratic Party…

A video posted today on Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves’ official Facebook page has caused major public discussion after Jamaican dancehall artiste Vybz Kartel delivered a message praising St. Vincent and the Grenadines and voicing strong support for the Prime Minister. In the video, Kartel—whose image and voice are clearly featured—speaks directly to Vincentians, recalling the warm welcome and affection he said he has always received during visits to the country. He said he has “never forgotten the love and care” shown to him in St. Vincent and the Grenadines over the years. Kartel goes on to say that the…

Speaking at a Unity Labour Party (ULP) rally last night, Dr. Grace Walters urged voters to “keep the NDP in opposition,” while praising the ULP’s record and leadership ahead of the November 27 general election. Walters told the crowd that the ULP has “delivered for the people” over the past 25 years, saying the party’s performance had been judged repeatedly by voters and “every time it was graded, it has done well.” She expressed confidence that voters would “grade the party again” and return it to office on election day. Highlighting what she described as a clear contrast between the…

Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves has ignited fresh controversy after claiming that “a little bird” informed him that the opposition New Democratic Party (NDP) would start a riot if the ruling Unity Labour Party (ULP) wins the upcoming election. Speaking during a recent address, the Prime Minister said he had been warned that NDP supporters were allegedly prepared to create unrest in the event of a ULP victory. Gonsalves presented the allegation as something he had been “told,” offering no evidence for the claim. He went further, directly referencing Leader of the Opposition Dr. Godwin Friday, stating that Friday — a…

With general elections fast approaching, both major political parties — the ruling Unity Labour Party (ULP) and the opposition New Democratic Party (NDP) — have been drawing in high-profile Jamaican artistes for rallies, concerts, and campaign events. But while the entertainment scene heats up, many Vincentians are asking a tougher question: Where is all this money coming from, while the country remains heavily in debt? The concerns have grown louder in recent weeks as citizens point to reports suggesting St. Vincent and the Grenadines owes over EC$800 million to Taiwan and billions more in total national debt. Critics argue that…

In 2001, the ULP was elected by the people of St. Vincent and the Grenadines to conduct the policies and affairs of the State—in other words, to govern, not to rule. The party was swept into office based on a manufactured crisis, the Roadblock Revolution, orchestrated by a power-hungry Marxist, Dr. Ralph Gonsalves, who has held on to power with an iron fist up to today. It would not be extreme to say that the book Animal Farm is an apt analogy for the past twenty-five years of ULP rulership. Dr. Ralph Gonsalves entered politics in 1979 after returning to…

The good book contains a scripture that states: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14) Every election season in SVG, I hear the phrase, “It is God who decides who gets into power.” I disagree with this, and I can use scripture to support my position. First, I want Christians and others to recognize that God has two types of will: perfect and permissive.…
