Obie Wilchcombe???? The PLP can’t be serious. But then again, relying on the stupidity and ignorance of the Bahamian people is a good strategy.

Just about spit up my coffee, WOW, the Bahamas needs all of the above, compassion vision and change, functionality the PLP can hardly be that instrument, neither can the FNM, the old days as in the old days of the Bay Street boys is OVER for the PLP and FNM as well

“Forward, Upward, Onward Together”

Obie is the very definition of a corrupt politician!

Yup, I just googled corruption at Obie was the only name mentioned on the first 5 pages.

My biggest fear is that many less well educated and more poverty stricken Bahamian voters will not fully understand and appreciate why it is now more important than ever for them to vote for the more reputable independent candidate who decides to run in their constituency, or just not vote at all. Our treasured Bahamaland and most of our people have reached the point where they will only suffer the severest of hardships and much misery under either another Minnis-led FNM administration or a Davis-led PLP administration.

Please don't encourage Bahamians to "not vote at all". Our system does not recognize low turnout. If only 10 people vote in a constituency and someone gets 4, someone gets 3, someone gets 2, and someone get 1 vote - then the candidate who got 4 votes wins that seat. The thousands that stayed home played no role whatsoever and now are stuck with Mr. 4 Votes. (or Mrs. 4 Votes).
Please encourage people to vote Independent. I don't know how many decades of cut hip from FNM and PLP the Bahamian people wish to receive. They can receive however many they vote for, of course.
Didn't we just throw these folks out 4 years ago? The same Davis and many of the others? They got new batteries for their halos now, so we must vote them in again? Or vote FNM? Seriously?
I swear if FNM or PLP win this next election, then the Bahamas deserves whatever it gets. People with no jobs, no health care, being tossed out by landlords cause they ain't working? Being treated like terrorists at the banks? Whatever we get we will deserve.

The good news is.... there's not much money in the cookie jar to steal. The PLP may be disappointed if they win.

The PLP needs to bring back Fitzgerald and Maynard Gibson to complete their complement of goons, pirates, and thieves!

Too many, way too many old PLP's in the race. Most disapointing. The PLP can and should do better than this.

The old guard needs to let go. They have had their day.

Why not campaigne with and mentor a young new candidate?

The PLP should not be a party with a bunch of old folks with old ideas which have failed us.

The country needs an alturnative to our current poor government and, as it stands, the PLP is no better than what we have.

@ComradeEconomist, most disappointing isn't it when as it currently stands there has been no signs of a real alternative to present a viable challenge to the two major players' - switcharooing turns at governing over realm's 1200 Out Islands, Keys, and Rocks. Even the DNA **has faded into self-quarantine afraidness, chickeness** within but moments after the Commish of the Royal Constabulary, **had personally** instructed the arrest of the party's leadership. yes?

Big nose frauds can't afford to give Bahamians a safer vaccine to take but can thief the whole national treasury. Minnis fooled all who wants to believe he actually got vaccinated.

this is simply frightening. what we gat and what we could get

Demands **serious rethink** in the way we's been projecting the results upcoming general election - if "Brave's," strategy is that Comrade Obadiah **is his jewel candidate** in his attempt at snaggin' away the crown jewel of Grand Bahama as he maps out his run to capture the realm's, **premiership,** yes?

WTH? My mother always said "if you can't say something good about someone, don't say anything at all".

In this case I'll have to make an exception!

Obie Wilchcombe is another useless suit that cannot show one positive initiative he brought to the table as minister of tourism.

Obie is best remembered for getting caught joining Lennox Paton law firm in selling out Bahamians with an under the table deal to block vendors from Paradise Beach!

Nobody with any sense will vote for this WELL KNOW disingenuous clown.

dont forget Pleasant and the IT warehouse or John Travolta. I honestly believe they think people forget... and maybe we do

I guess we will have to count on the Punch to revive those John Travolta Moments! The fella broke!

Really?! Many would say both the Travolta and Nygard matters pale in comparison to the enormous financial and economic harm done our country as a result of, among other things, Minnis and D'Aguilar's secretitive dealings with corrupt and unscrupulous greedy representatives of foreign owned enterprises like Hutchison Whampoa, Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Disney, Free Harbour Company, Grand Bahama Port Authority, etc. lol

Do us all a favour and vote for the independent candidate who will likely be running in your constituency.

The other problem for a DNA led government is that our senior civil service is so full of mostly PLP crony air breathers that government agencies will simply stop working in protest. It will take months if not years to clean all of the waste out of civil service while it is ground to a halt. This will be highly frustrating for all and expensive to pay out these dead beat crooks to stay home.
I do note that the FNM are at least cleaning up the Mortgage Corporation but that is only the tippy top of the tip of the iceberg.
