The search is now on for a new leader of the opposition United Workers Party (UWP). That’s because Lennox Linton who has been at the helm of the party since 2013 tendered his resignation as leader of the party to president Isaac Baptiste to take immediate effect. Linton, who led the party to two election defeats, was, in 2021, again elected “unopposed” as leader of the party.
Speaking to Nature Isle News (NIN) at least three members of the party confirmed the resignation. “I can confirm to you that he has resigned effective September 30, 2022, NIN was told,” by top members of the party.
Calls to party president Isaac Baptiste went unanswered and also to Linton.
NIN will continue to follow this developing story and bring you updates as and when it becomes available.
Lennox has served courageously in the face of a ruthless and corrupt government who has access to billions of dollars to play politics with. He has amazing analytical skills and was the most articulate politician in recent times.
What he lacked in charisma he may have made up in governance. Unfortunately he was not given the opportunity even if he really won the stolen election.
I wish he and his family all the best.
Well said. What a sad day 😢 Skerritt will reap what he sow in Jesus name 🙏🏽
A very educated move by that I mean smart. Let’s see if the neutral voters will vote now for UWP
I believe the country of Dominica will now be at peace with the good news of his resignation.
Let Democracy reign and prevail throughout the electoral process.
We were known to be a small nation of Peace, Love and togetherness and not one of violence, division, hatred and strife.
Some people should learn to wait their turn, because “good things comes to those who wait. Don’t force it.
Life is just a natural process.
Thanks for sharing.
If people find it just to
I feel sorry for you
