Antigua and Barbuda Government Ministers Enrichment Plan: Real Estate, WIOC, Climate Change, and Liquefied Natural Gas By Kwame Nkosi Romeo Oh, what a tangled web we weave/When first we practice to deceive. Scottish author Sir Walter Scott Pay attention to ALP's all-inclusive corruption related to the 350-acre Corbkinnons Development Project (CDP), along with other companies of former ALP prime minister Lester Bird, assigned to ALP MP Asot Michael, and to the ALP winning the Antigua and Barbuda election on June 12, 2014, after ten years in opposition.

The Political Crisis and Social Consequences of Power and Status! By Kwame Nkosi Romeo The political landscape in Antigua and Barbuda's semi-democracy, shaped by its plantation economy, is ready for the April 30, 2026, election, as the incumbent Antigua Labor Party (ALP) and the Opposition United Progressive Party (UPP) await the opening of polling stations at 06:00 (AST). Predictions suggest that Gaston Browne may be deposed due to rising Laborites disapproval, which is gaining widespread support about the composition of the candidates running on the (ALP) ticket: seven of the 17 candidates are ex-UPP members, which has left many supporters upset. This is the era of political disfavor! That disenchantment exists in St. Peter and has not changed since the brutal death on November 5 2024 of the infamous ex-ALP MP of Tourism, Asot Michael, who underscored the urgency as an Independent MP advocating to overthrow Browne: Everyone wants to see the back of ALP prime ...

Asot Michael Imagine these are the talking points about Democracy "even when it hurts" coming from the venal agent of disempowerment: economic plunder and vote fraud. Our DEMOCRACY is an executioner; continuing to blindfold the masses with trickey, proclaiming better days are coming, but failing to arrive, as they continue to. miskead many to their political abattoir to kill their income of starvation wages and muzzle their cry of murder is the well-known hypocrisy of our dilemma! It is an Antigua Labor Party (ALP) tradition that dangerously prevails over the nation's political future! Its significant meaning is a local term called bobol! Michael's words were useless and were likened to those of former US President Richard Nixon, who famously said, "I am not a crook," and everyone is aware of ...

A story that extends beyond the vehicle gate encapsulates a reflection on Antigua and Barbuda's political corruption as today's consequence of crumbling social infrastructure and the political failure of accountability and transparency!! Maria, Maria, you're not like the characters in West Side Story, as described in a Carlos Santana song that depicts those facing hardships. You were born into privilege, not struggle! So you wouldn't understand the resilience and courage of people confronting life's challenges. Meanwhile, others loot, steal, attack, and silence truth-tellers.

The difference between Maria, who was elected and sought further enrichment, and ...

The Deaths of Politicians and Other Enablers Do Not Mean Acts of Economic e Plunder Be Buried Too! By Kwame Nkosi Romeo A prominent unresolved controversy centers on the lack of transparency and accountability regarding the late Antigua Labor Party (ALP) prime minister, Lester Bird, and former MP Asot Michael. Their deaths add to a history of other enablers who empowered elites to establish the current gangs of ALP robber barons, allowing them to enrich themselves for over six decades. Therefore, a thorough investigation into their accumulated wealth is essential to return those funds to the public treasury. The influence of the ALP is deeply rooted, stemming from its control of the executive branch and conflicts of interest. Although no final verdict has been reached, it is widely acknowledged that the estates of these individuals should compensate for all illegal dealings and set a precedent for others whose fates seem sealed. Power is fleeting; it does n...
