History of Columbus can and will always be a part the Bahamas no doubt, that being said his statue doesn't need to be there to represent his history, furthermore, I doubt our school children are taught of his cruelty and hatred for first the indigenous people he met here and then the black people they brought here, my guess is all these school children properly knows or has learned of him is the lie he discovered the Bahamas. his statue needs to come down.
I hope the ratio of workers kept working at the Hilton is still 70% Bahamian and 30% foreigners, but knowing our elected officials and particularly our Labor Minister and his department they won't be checking and don't care. Bahamian citizens should be First in line for all available work and after the process is exhausted then and only then should Foreigners be allowed to apply.
So, Dr. Sands, you had 9 months to deal and question these things but you didn't you were silent, now you playing like you concern? To me, this concern is fake and so are you.
This is also a time that the community, family members and people who recognize these robbers need to step forward and point them out to the RBPF, then and only then would these thugs and persons like them understand that they won't have anywhere to hide and continue to wreak havoc on the rest of the community.
The national exams were scheduled to begin on April 15th, COVID-19 caused the closing of schools around the second or third week of March, by the time school closed the students who were supposed to be taking exams should have already been prepared and just reviewing. If they were not prepared two or three weeks before April 15th then they will never be prepared and ready, the students knew, the parents knew that they will have to take the national exam when the virus simmers down or go away, they say they ain't ready now, so the question is when will they be ready?
Boy Oh boy I wonder what and how this person is going to react or do when it becomes evident that a Competent Authority is no longer needed and this drunken do this, can't do this, chase your tail mentality for no reasonable and apparent reason is no longer needed, please Lord help us the Bahamian people get to this point, right now Hitler would be seen as a junior when compared our now competent authority. Nassau I guess we will have to wait until we see foreigners (tourists) swimming and enjoying our beaches before we can.
Yes, I agree with the lady who says if there's a disagreement punch it out like a MAN and stop being a sissy and running for a gun or a knife for every disagreement. Today's men (young Men) they handle disagreements 1000000000000000 times worst than any women will, UHMM, maybe they are drag queens. Today's men they like Man they go about trying to impress their male friends touting a gun or knife to say " hey bro you see how bad I am" when all along they never move by themselves, always with a backup or in a pack to feel like they have BALLS, back in the day we proved we were men we fisted it out against any opponent, we licked our wounds and moved on whether there were follow up fist battles or we becoming friends, allies, whatever, we moved on, that is why so many of us old school are still around today and the drag queens (today's young men) can't make it to 25yrs.
