Manning vs Nyan cat was the only strange matchup going on in internals. Manning was forced to step out of the race to let only 1 minister fight the rest of nobodies per position, securing their position in the party hierarchy.

Is still Manning camp vs Rowley camp, Manning here to fight where his father left off. Just, for now, if Rowley had let Manning in an internal PNM post, it would have fast tracked his reign as leader of the party in time for the 2030 Generals.

These men playing chess.

Manning drops out PNM race
...cites ‘unexpected, urgent family matter’


Brian Manning, who was contesting the vice-chairmanship of the People’s National Movement (PNM), has dropped out of the internal election.

That leaves Minister of Education Nyan Gadsby-Dolly and Rondell Donawa as the two contenders for the vice-chairmanship.

In a letter to the Elections Supervisory Committee dated October 14, Manning said “with great sadness” he was withdrawing his candidacy because “an unexpected and urgent family matter demands more of my time and attention right now”.

It was only on Monday that he submitted his nomination. Manning said he was moved by the “outpouring of support received from every quarter of this great party” and he remained committed to all his supporters and party members.

“My heart has been truly buoyed by the flood of support and well wishes received since I announced my candidacy, but given the circumstances at this time, I am unable to commit myself to the demands of an election campaign,” he wrote.

He concluded by saying that he was asking party supporters for their understanding “as we continue to work together to support the election process.

I appreciate each of you and remain committed to the belief that we are capable of great things not just as a party but as a country”.

Sources meanwhile said that while political leader Dr Keith Rowley has not indicated that he has a team, there is a view within the party that there is indeed a Rowley team and that the candidate for vice-chairman on the Rowley team is Gadsby-Dolly.

Many believed Manning, whose campaign manager was former minister Joan Yuille-Williams, had viable prospects.

100 stakeholders say no to Todd Street development

A JOINT call from 100 stakeholders to stop the proposed construction of a Housing Development Corporation (HDC) project along Todd Street in San Fernando has been raised.

Residents, property owners, business groups and principals of seven surrounding schools gathered on Thursday evening, calling for an immediate halt on the potential project.

Last week, Pandit Rudranath Maharaj, of the Krishna Mandir, speaking to his congregation, indicated that he was informed that a piece of land located opposite the mandir, along Todd Street and adjacent to San Fernando West Secondary and San Fernando Central Secondary schools, was being surveyed by the HDC.


The HDC, he said, had disclosed plans to construct three apartment towers, comprising 100 units, in the specified area. However, the corporation, he said, had not consulted residents or other stakeholders on these plans.

Citing gridlock traffic because of the surrounding schools and businesses, the land’s designation as a “green space”, as well as community concerns, Maharaj asked why the HDC had not consulted those who may be affected by such a project.

“Why not look for other areas where you can plan for a community in a better way, infrastructure in a better way and allow for a community to be grown in a better way. Why is that not being thought of? It is naked politics that blinds always,” said Maharaj in a video clip that has since been widely shared on social media.

“I am certain that 99 per cent of you were not aware of those plans. Why is it you could have had several consultations about Skinner Park, the Waterfront Project, but no consultation about that development project? Why is that?”

In a news release yesterday, more than 100 stakeholders who met to discuss the issue continued the call for a response from the HDC.

A unanimous objection, it said, was made on the grounds that such construction would eliminate the last designated green space in San Fernando, as well as pose health and safety threats to the surrounding schools.

In addition to the two adjacent schools, which are in need of refurbishment, they said, schools such as ASJA Boys’ and Girls’ colleges, San Fernando TML Primary School, Shri Krishna Kindergarten and the ASJA Primary schools were in the vicinity of this construction.


Traffic congestion

The statement from stakeholders said this proposed development would severely impact drainage, cause potential flooding due to the removal of vegetation, and increase the already severe traffic congestion in the area.

In addition to this, the statement questioned why other HDC developments, such as Carlton Place in San Fernando, were being advertised for sale, as well as plans for other constructions along Cocoyea roundabout and throughout San Fernando, a point that had been raised by Maharaj last week.

Maharaj also stated that the Mandir had previously indicated its intent to construct a Hindu school, requesting assistance from the Ministry of Education in pursuing these plans at the same lot.

The mandir’s proposal, he said, had been objected to by the ministry in the years prior due to inadequate size and the space’s designation as a green space.

Speaking at the unveiling ceremony of a mural on Harris Promenade in San Fernando on Tuesday, Minister of Local Government Faris Al-Rawi responded to Maharaj’s concerns, stating that as San Fernando West Member of Parliament, pleas for traffic management were being coordinated.

“As we start at phase one at Todd Street redevelopment as it starts from the bottom, as it connects to the beginning of the waterfront, that remobilisation of traffic is critical for us all,” he said.

HDC responds

In response to the Express yesterday, the HDC confirmed that it had conducted site identification and assessment of the lands situated at Todd Street to determine suitability given demand for housing.


This, it said, was considered preliminary planning work.

“The HDC in fulfilment of its housing mandate is engaged in an ongoing land audit exercise to determine the suitability of lands to satisfy the demand for housing, particularly in areas that provide the opportunity for sustainable urban development. These preliminary planning works include inter alia, survey work, traffic surveys and studies, and geotechnical and topographical investigations,” it said.

The HDC said that at this stage consultations with stakeholders is considered premature, but that it was committed to engaging stakeholders to hear their views and concerns.

The corporation said it would continue to follow the best practices as it concerns the engagement of a traffic management engineer/consultant, Town and Country Planning Division (TCPD) approval to guide the corporation on the appropriate use of land, and TCPD approval to guide site development, inclusive of parking arrangements.

“The corporation thanks the citizens of San Fernando for their understanding and patience as it continues its preliminary activities,” it said.

The Express contacted the Ministry of Education and San Fernando Mayor Junia Regrello for a ­response, but none was received.

So they want to put a nest of criminals and gangs in the midst of 7 mostly demonational schools whose parents are seen as well off and the children as easy targets. Property values will plummet and businesses will have to look over their shoulder more often. I cant see this as voter padding since the residential areas are mostly pnm already.

It's exactly that. Too blatant and HDC didn't think they would be caught out so early. If the plan goes through, they would be taking away green space from the schools.

Actually, it is voter padding. This area is part of the San Fernando West constituency which is a marginal seat.

San Fernandians got wise about voter padding and guarding green spaces around the city after Manning pulled off Olera Heights HDC development at the bottom of San Fernando Hill in the mid 2000s. The value of properties along Circular Road have plummeted since then. Meanwhile many of the individual towers in the development have become dilapidated which is "bringing down" the area.

In other words:

HDC to the residents of Todd St: FU and HYMC. The 3 apartment towers will be built over your dead bodies because this is a marginal constituency and green spaces be damned.

I have seen it happen in other communities.
