THOSE contesting against the political leader of the People’s National Movement (PNM) Dr Keith Rowley in the upcoming party’s internal election have been described as “termites”.
Speaking at a public meeting at Lisa Gardens Community Centre in Couva on Sunday, Stuart Young who is vying for the post of chairman under Dr Rowley’s slate told supporters that they needed to look for action.
He said, “Actions are not words. Talk is cheap. I have looked on throughout the last ten years and seen how talk is cheap. They have some people and I will say it again who just come out the woodworks like termites and want to be leaders all of a sudden of the great party that we are.”
In a Facebook post on Monday, Young stated, “These internal elections and the choices that you make are too important to take lightly. Choose the proven leaders who will take our great party forward into the coming battles. A leadership that has the ability to also take our blessed country forward.”
PNM members Karen Nunez-Teshiera, Ronald Boynes and Junior Barrack are also contending for the post of political leader.
