Dr. Keith Mitchell |
|
Opposition Leader |
Thursday
August 21st, 2008:
The New
National Party wishes to convey its
disgust with the treatment meted out to
the Leader of Her Majesty’s Opposition
Dr. the Right Honorable Keith Mitchell
at the Ceremonial Opening of the first
session of the
eighth Parliament of Grenada on
Tuesday 19th August 2008 at
the Grenada Trade Centre.
Dr.
Mitchell was verbally abused on several
occasions immediately after the opening
ceremony by three known operatives of
the National Democratic Congress namely
former parliamentarian Michael Baptiste,
Lawyer Anslem Clouden and newspaper
editor George Worme.
The NNP
views this behavior with grave concern
as it comes immediately on the heels of
the refusal of the NDC Administration to
return his
official passport which contained
his visas.
This also
follows the total removal of the
security detailed to the former Prime
Minister on the day the new Prime
Minister was sworn in and the silent
victimization of several workers within
the Public Service of Grenada, Carriacou
and Petite Martinique.
The NNP
calls on the NDC to encourage its
supporters to work to maintain the peace
and stability of our country one in
which all Grenadians are free to express
their political preference in a free and
fair environment.
