Junior Minister with responsibility for Works, Public Utilities, Natural Resources and the Environment in the Nevis Island Administration (NIA) Hon. Carlisle Powell, told villagers of the St. Johns Parish that they could tick off another promise from the list in the People’s Agenda when their 3.5 mile road project is completed in mid 2009.
The Minister was at the time expressing complementary sentiments to Area Representative Hon. Hastings Daniel at a ceremony at the gazebo in Cox Village, to break ground which signaled the start of a $15.9million dollar project by contractors National Piling Ltd.
“You have suffered much; your representative the Honourable Hensley Daniel and my government led by Premier Joseph Parry are here to deliver to you a new standard of road that will lift the spirits of the people.
“You elected Minister Daniel to look after your affairs. I say to you that the Nevis Reformation Party (NRP) and Minister Daniel are here to deliver on yet another promise. Tick of another promise from the list in the people’s Agenda,” he said.
