Firstly, Old Fort Bay Company Ltd in selling the **three-acre parcel** to his father in 1998, presently limit development to two private residential dwellings of “no more than 3,000 square feet each” is absolutely ludicrous to start with at best!

Which residential development by New Providence Development Company and its affiliate, Old Fort Bay Company has just two private residential dwellings on **three-acres of land**?

Certainly not the houses in Old Fort Bay, where houses are squeezed so tightly together it should be illegal!

**Why does New Providence Development Company and its affiliate, Old Fort Bay Company feel they can impose restrictions on Mr. Dean that they clearly do not observe themselves?**

Secondly, specific prejudice ‘restrictive covenants’ in land titles is nothing new. These racist also have ‘restrictive covenants’ for all property in Western New Providence specifying that "they could not be sold, bought or owned by black people".

New Providence Development Company and its affiliate, Old Fort Bay Company racist mentality cannot be allowed to continue in our country!

When these two PLP and FNM MP's are done pointing fingers at each other trying to duck responsibility about the lack of infrastructure in Eleuthera, the rest can have the same arguments about Andros, Exuma, Long Island and ALL the other family island suffering the very same situations.

At least they get away with "blaming parents" with this one!

They are unmistakably two sides of the same coin.

SP says...

Mr. Pintard refuses to acknowledge the fact that the very same loopholes the PLP are using to avoid accountability were always in place and used just as much by the FNM when they were in power!

Pintard is attempting to swing us into believing this is something new.

Both parties are equally guilty of using these types of scams with under the table, backdoor dealing, and have obviously agreed leave the loopholes intact to be exploited by whomever is in power.

Bahamians are not as ignorant as these politicians have convinced themselves we are.

Nothing will or could ever change in the Bahamas as long as either the PLP or FNM are in power. As they have obviously colluded to leave these types of loopholes in tact to be exploited when either party is in power.

We're not stupid. The PLP and FNM are unquestionably two sides of the same coin.

STFU Pintard.

😎 Amazing that the usual crew of outspoken know it all genius racists that complain about everything have absolutely no comments when the government gets something right. 🤣

VERY refreshing to have some good news for a change!

I don't know what criteria was used to conclude a 90-95% decrease in poaching from the Dominicans and Americans, however, obviously the catch increase suggests the Defense Force efforts has had a positive impact on protecting our territorial waters for Bahamians.

Dominicans were well known to have exported exceedingly more fishery products than the Bahamas for decades, even though their waters are basically totally fished out.

Americans took advantage of proximity and the lack of marine policing to rape Bahamian waters of everything and anything at will....With a smile!

Congratulations to the Defense Force and the government, for finally stepping up in doing their jobs of protecting our fisheries and the fishing industry.

Well done!

THE trusses on a **hurricane shelter** being built in Abaco collapsed. 😳

The shelter was originally **slated to open in May 2021**. 🥸

Officials say they expect it to be **completed by the end of this year**. 🤣

He called the rise to $4.8m “inexplicable”. 😎

We don’t want to make things like this political, but the incompetence is rife here,” he said. 🙄

In response to the criticism, Leon Lundy, the minister responsible for the Disaster Risk Management Authority, noted that no one was inside when the roof collapsed and **emphasized that safety is the top priority.** 😬

He said despite the setback, the contractor remains **committed to delivering a quality hurricane shelter capable of withstanding Category 5 winds.** 😮

**March on Bahama land** 🤔

I don't know what the government is up to, but they have certainly found another brilliant way to destroy tourism and commerce!

SP says...

🤣 **I call bullshyt!**

i am totally ashamed as a Bahamian to watch tourist interacting with some jet ski, hair braiders, and other beach vendors. I certainly would not have any dealing with these animals!

So which ONE of the below "F' average jet ski operators is going to translate the new "safety manual" to the low life bunch of hooligan jet ski operators?

Let's get real for just once. **The root of the problem** is the Bahamas government and ministry of tourism are allowing the lowest of the low, dumbest of the dumb, and ***MOST*** ignorant of the ignorant, to be front line in the tourism industry!?!?

What serious resort destination in the world would allow a "herd" of absolute, total idiots, to represent their front line in the most vital sector of their economy?

These jet ski guys are so stupid, they are a danger to themselves!

The **government** needs to step in and make it **mandatory** that anyone working in front line tourism is firstly presentable, educated to C level or above, and has **PASSED** the Bahamas Host program at an above average score.

It's not like sensible people are not available to fill these jobs. Given the right pay incentives, higher quality individuals will be very happy to work in the jet ski industry.

The ministry of tourism continues doing the one step forward two steps backwards meringue with the number one industry and lifeblood of the economy!

Make it make sense. The PLP and FNM have unquestionably proven, beyond any doubt whatsoever, that they have absolutely **NO IDEA** how a resort destination functions.

It is no wonder cruise ships advise passenger **NOT** to get off in Nassau!

SP says...

🤣.....😂 Yeah, right!
