A sailing legend

I was saddened to learn of the passing to Sir Godfrey Kelly, co-founder of the Cat Island Regatta which started in Knowles, Cat Island in 1956. I first came to know Sir Godfrey when I served as President of the Cat Island Sailing Club Association, organisers of the regatta.

Davis’ LA Rams media strategy

With the Cincinnati Bengals set to face the Los Angeles Rams at the $5 billion SoFi Stadium in Super Bowl LVI, politically astute NFL enthusiasts in The Bahamas can see faint parallels between the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) government and the team representing the NFC.

Farewell, Sir Godfrey

I have only ever had two bosses.

Foreigner takeover

It’s happening now on Mount Pleasant Village Park. Foreigners have taken it over all day long - without permit!

Investment not photo ops

Photo-op Minister for Foreign Affairs and a CARICOM official designated on the folly of CARICOM to try to obtain reparations from the United Kingdom.

Stand up against madness

The sporting federations, the Olympic Associations, and fellow sportsmen, now is the time to let your voices be heard before all the benefits of sports are lost and destroyed.

Shame on Clint Watson

On 1st February “Our News Bahamas” posted a newscast on YouTube of media personnel being denied interviews with Government Ministers on their way to Cabinet at The Office of the Prime Minister in the Cecil Wallace-Whitfield Building on Cable Beach.

Plans to rejuvenate Bay Street

I see rejuvenance of Bay Street, that is the section between the British Colonial hotel and East Street, is again causing interest with “something must be done” although what that may be is not made clear.

Masks on or pay up

MASKS...... Masks..... we are required to wear them so the Health Regulation says....BUT.......

Undermining values of Bahamians

DR MICHAEL Darville and Ministry of Health and Wellness officials must be commended for rejecting the concert request of Bahamian promoters of the Reggae Valentine’s Day event featuring Jamaican dancehall artist Dexter Daps.

AI: Helping the lonely

COVID-19’s influence upon us all has been at times horrific.

A lethally reckless judiciary

Last week, a young man convicted of possession of an illegal firearm and ammunition received a sentence of one year in prison and a fine of $5,500.00. This kind of thing has become so normalised in The Bahamas that it hardly receives any notice, either editorially or by government ministers charged with maintaining societal norms.

Protocol for media

I am both trained as a journalist, but I have been engaged in the media as a radio and television talk show host for a decade and counting, so I am somewhat qualified to opine on the apparent spat between segments of the profession and the Office of the Prime Minister as it relates to access to cabinet ministers to and from meetings of the cabinet.

FNM moving on

It was a pleasure to see the appointment of Michela Barnett-Ellis as Senator on Friday, for many reasons.

What baggage?

I am not an FNM and most of my other habits are food ones. I was almost astounded when I read a recent article in The Tribune by Rashad Rolle, a senior reporter at that fine establishment, wherein he quoted Adrian White (FNM-Ann’s Town) as suggesting that both he and Shanendon Cartwright (FNM-St. Barnabas) have “baggage” going into the upcoming FNM convention.

FNMs must not take risks

I believe that Free National Movement (FNM) foot soldiers are taking unnecessary risks by attacking the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) administration of Prime Minister Philip “Brave” Davis via irresponsible means.

Avoiding the media

Is the post election honeymoon over and Government goes back to avoiding the media and the question?

Ingraham and the hand of Machiavelli

It is no secret that former Prime Minister, the Rt Hon Hubert A Ingraham, a great Bahamian almost on par with our deeply lamented and missed Sir Lynden Oscar Pindling, publicly endorsed the Hon Doctor Duane Sands for re-election up at Elizabeth and, eventually, for becoming Prime Minister “some day”. That, of course, was a mere pipe dream.

Freeport gets poor treatment

Prime Minister Philip Brave Davis’s revelation that wealthy Dubai investors are reluctant to invest in Grand Bahama must be greatly demoralising to Grand Bahamians, especially those in the Freeport area.

Personal income tax

Great attorney Andrew Allen has responded to my response to his original proposal for increased Company Tax and new Personal Income Tax...he seems hell bent and strong that this is the better fiscal and financial policy approach... hang in, Mr Allen.

Property tax

Sometimes it is best not to comment when you have been fan-faring how good the property market is and who record high leveled sales.

Race issues in The Bahamas

There is not a single racist bone in my body. As a black Bahamian man many of my ‘best’ friends, personally and professionally have been and are white Bahamians. From my early days as an Articled Clerk in the chambers of the late Lawrence LPJ Trenchard, an expatriate transplanted Englishman, I came to know a ton of white/conchy joe Bahamians.

Wasted money

Minister of State Public Services seems to have a knack to being precise and concise and on the ball.

Changing rules on entry to nation

I wish to add my voice to the concerns raised in your article yesterday by Robert Sands about entry into The Bahamas.

Ditching trash on our neighbours

Humans are indeed a queer lot. When we clean up our yard, we have no problem pitching our trash over the fence and into our neighbour’s yard. We then admire our yard and frown at our neighbour for living like a pig.
