BARBADOS-ELECTIONS-Prime Minister calls on voters to reject Owen Arthur

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, CMC – Prime Minister Freundel Stuart has called on voters to reject the man seeking his job and ensure that the ruling Democratic Labour Party (DLP) is returned to power for another five year term on February 21. Stuart, addressing supporters in the St. Peter’s constituency on Monday night, said that Owen Arthur, the leader of the Barbados labour Party (BLP) and a former prime minister had “fallen very far short of the expectations of the people. “From 1984 until the year 2013 in the month of February, he had a chance to prove himself to the people of St. Peter. If you give a man that amount of time to prove himself to you and he has not proved himself yet, either he doesn’t intend to do it or he does not know how to do it,” Stuart said.
