St. Lucia Prime Minister Stephenson King
St. Lucia Prime Minister Stephenson King has announced a general election date of November 28 – the same day of general elections in Guyana.
November 17 is the date set for nominations.
King and his United Workers Party (UWP), are seeking a second term. Their main main challenger – the opposition party, is the St. Lucia Labour Party (SLP).
The opposition has predicted that the “wind of change”, which has seen leaderships replaced in many Caribbean Community states (CARICOM), will also see the incumbent removed from office.
