Dominica: Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit and his DLP party re-elected
“The truth is, that in any country, especially in developing countries, a party that consistently delivers on its promises and takes the country along a clear path of development can win a fourth consecutive term. Tonight we can celebrate the fact that Dominicans will continue to enjoy the rise in standard of living and quality of life as we had been doing since 2000.”
Skerrit said that he was delighted that the population had studied his party’s achievements in office and that every national had benefited from the socio-economic policies of his administration.
“I am sure this is your way of showing gratitude, this is why you have decided to give us the new mandate to continue to deliver the very many realistic promises we made to you in the manifesto,” he said, adding the manifesto had been drawn up “not just to win the election but also to serve as a manual to guide our governance of Dominica during the next 5 years.”
Skerrit said that the composition of his new administration would be announced at a later date. -(CMC)
