THE FNM hit out the PLP yesterday, branding it a party that does nothing but "criticise what they can't do."
The governing party was responding to comments made by the opposition in relation to the opening of the Thomas A Robinson Stadium. A statement from the FNM said the new stadium is a source of pride for all Bahamians.
"While PLP opposition politicians like to sit on the sidelines, denigrate every project they were incapable of producing and engage in divisive politicking, this FNM government has completed and delivered a state-of-the-art sports facility that also creates job opportunities for Bahamians.
"Our youth and athletes have now access to superior conditions to train and compete. Sports-related tourism, as well as contractors and vendors associated with the facility will benefit, as will all Bahamians," the statement said.
"The upward trend in tourism, with an estimated increase of 11 per cent arrivals for the first quarter of this year, goes to show that our efforts have been paying off for the benefit of the people."
