Them "hard headed" people in administration over there was already given a stakeholders-wide document of about 55 pages laying out a comprehensive approach to navigating covid19 all the way into school reopening protocols!! This document came from inter and external stakeholders. . .all unions included!! But as usual, the childish director of education refused to consider anything from anybody except himself and his small circle of friends who "sucking-up to him" and too afraid of retaliation from him if he feels slighted by any of them!! The unions and teachers had already set out a sensible plan for hosting national exams. . .but as usual, the director would have none of it!!

I agree. . .you sound as if you are "familiar" with the mess at MOE. . .the doll house mentality among its administration persons!! Therefore, I expect that you know the "broken link" in that department. . .its director is a "dud" and can't perform as a professional director of education!! He is overwhelmed in normal circumstances. . .COVID19 thinking processes floored him!!

Point well taken!! However, teachers are NOT. . .I say NOT responsible for "buying" the required teaching resources for delivery of student education. . .education act says that the minister of education is responsible for that!! The administration chooses to NOT dialogue or consult with internal and external stakeholders to reach a "happy medium" for the way forward!! So why the department of education is ignoring input from its primary internal stakeholders (teachers, education planners and technical professionals) yet expects to "order" so many uninformed decisions and expect to have no "push-back" from its broad-based stakeholders groups!! Stakeholders are "informed" of decisions over the media. . .yinna expect no "rowing" to take place!! Chile please!!

This is one foolish post. . .the director of education do not communicate with his internal or external stakeholders. . .he acts as a resource unto himself. . .if he or his minster would learn to consult with relevant stakeholders and refrain from being a "do as i say" administrator in their approach to running that department things will be a whole lot better and smoother!! the director of education is lost and clueless.. . .

Then please tell us how the teachers will go virtual without means to access the virtual space?? Yinna political peoples dem need to stop talking fool. . .the ministry of education is mandated by law (education act) to provide resources for teachers to teach. . .teachers are not required to "provide" their own resources to effect teaching of children. the director of education is woefully unprepared for what covid19 demands of him and his administrative team!! Covid19 een hindered him, it just exposed his 'negligent hired" status!!

For you who are not familiar with human terms. . .negligent hired is the wrong person was hired or chosen for a particular job. . . the demands of the job overwhelmed them when they tried to carried it out!! In the military it is called "a cluster f***". . .they hired person is absolutely lost. . .not "kinnda lost". . ."all kapunkal up" lost in the Bahamian vernacular!!

Good show Mr. PM. . .I told my grand daughter who is now able to vote that I believe that Doc has a heart for his people. . .he WILL do something to help his people. . .if he do not, he is not fit to be our PM! I mentioned that if he proves not to be fit. . .it is time to resist him for all future office in this nation. . .if he reverse, he is worthy of future support!! She called me last night and said "he opened it. . .we can go and shop for the lock down". . ."I told you that this is the time that will decide if he is good for us in the future or not", I replied. . ."I see" she concluded! thanks mr pm. . .i think my grand daughter has learned a valuable lesson!!! The rest is up to the governing party and the PM. . .for as long as she will take my advice into serious consideration, I will advise her honestly. . . for or against!! Behaviour determines support for me and I will hope my grand children will do the same!!

Stupidity city as usual. . .site of retards in reasoning skills!! I am wasting time with yinna. . .

As expected. . .back to acting like little drunk children in these posts on this sight!! pm minnis "trumped" yinna backsides. . .again as usual!! He heard the cry of his peoples them in their hurt and disgust about his draconian lock down orders on Monday!!! Now I have my own "thinking" about some possibilities as to why he did so. . .but their intensity as deep as the possibility of behaviour that is in me. . .I will see the things that he may have done. . . if he was me!!

You all had him by the "secrets" because that order was heartless and devoid of concern for basic human rights. . . one had to be a blinded political hack with zero care for honesty to not see that point!!

Thanks Mr. Doc Minnis, PM sir. . .it took a new kind of PM to take the feelings of his people into consideration. . .in this country that is something that is rarely done. I need not go into any past acts or try to convince you normally closed minded block head yard chicken thinking!! Now I would suggest to your that yinna get serious and stop yinna dumb nonsense so that we can input sane and common sense dialogue so that we can contribute valuable correspondences in our national development and keep stupidity out!!

Yinna might as well shut this nonsense if yinna gat any social understanding. . .if doc did not change that hash decision he would have had his "Perry Christie finger" moment. . .but he listened to the peoples cries for his help. . .he responded. . .now he is seen as "caring" about their plights!! Check in the 48 laws of power. . .the king who removers a heavy burden from the necks of the masses will be loved. . . even if he was the one who placed it there in the first place!! He turned social vinegar into political wine!! That reversal will buy him some heavy duty political mileage. . .

he has the monied class because he is profitable for their pockets. . .now he endeared the masses because he showed care for the relief of hash burdens from their lives. . .so that leaves the 20% swing voters that can be reasoned with about anything doc will do wrong in future . . . the dumb way yinna reason about anything around will not cut it!!!

So continue to act like fools and little primary school children in how yinna reason. . .the only effect will result is hearing ya own voices in yinna own ears!!!

i am mostly critical about dumb talking on this site. . .am still will do so. . .but this time, I can't do so when our PM has done such an barbaric and inhuman violations of basic human rights!!! Mr. PM you appear to be unfeeling, barbaric and violates the basic rights of human existence!!

your bahamian humans!! i nor anyone for or against you and your government can support your barbaric decision to lock down without required stocking for the lock down!!! People around here I am not abandoning my critical nature. . .but this decision begs the question of what does this pm thinks we are???? Can he feel us?? I am at a serious lost here! I am seriously hurt and insulted for my country. . .our PM is treating us like we don't matter!! Unless he hurriedly reverse this barbaric and so inhuman violation of my peoples basic human rights, he will not be able to ask people to support him in the future!! his decision shows that "heen on we run"! Right now I feel that he don't give a damn about us at all!! Don't get me wrong here, everybody I know who are not in the PM's circle of friends, are royally pissed and insulted in this nation!!!

If any of yinna around here are FNM persons. . .tell ya party peoples them that yinna must get Dr. Minnis to reverse this grossly demeaning and inhuman violations of this nations basic human rights for two days for us to prepare for the lock down. . .(we believe that the lock down is needed) . . .because right now he is seen as a damn barbaric insensitive and power hungry despot!! He needs to reverse this nonsense or this will be his "Perry Christie middle finger" moment! A word to the wise is sufficient!!

I do not agree that the Bahamas is losing confidence in Mr. Minnis. . .until last night I think!! I too am shocked with the decision to immediately lock down without preparations by the people!! I think that he must reverse that decision and give people a day or two to prepare! Otherwise, the people will lost all confidence in the PM. That decision makes us feel that he do not care a damn about our well being!! This decision has cut the peoples heart and feelings very deeply!! I am afraid that his only choice now is to reverse this harsh and unconcern decision!! If he does not reverse this decision and allow the people to get prepared for the needed lock down. . .he is done as our PM or his party as government!! I cannot support his reckless and demeaning decision to lock down without supplies to sustain themselves. . .this decision is barbaric and violates basic human rights!
