Residents of Challengers and surrounding communities have thanked the Government for the fulfilling its promise to continue investing in the socio-economic development of the people.

This was stressed during a ceremony marking the official opening of the newly refurbished Challengers Sporting Complex on the weekend. The upgrade saw the construction of a change room with bathroom facilities, a commentator’s booth with an external scoring clock, and an office, as well as a meeting, and storage room. The inclusion of bleachers and a bar was also for the comfort of spectators.

“The community of Challengers “¦ is again celebrating yet another improvement to the sporting and recreational facilities here at this ideal location,” said community stalwart Wilfred Welsh. “It is therefore with a feeling of pride and joy that I attend this function.”

St. Kitts Citizens Still In The Dark With Blackouts

Leader of the People’s Action Movement Lindsay Grant has called on the Denzil Douglas administration to call early general elections, saying the government does not have the answers to the ongoing power crisis here.

Mr Grant, speaking here at a press conference Tuesday, said that the country’s economy has been undermined by weeks of load-shedding, and power cuts that have continued even after the government announced last week that the problem was solved.

There were a series of power outages on the weekend, but officials blamed those on what was described as a feeder fault.

“Ten years and millions of dollars later, the fumbling Denzil Douglas regime has no final solution for this nation’s power crisis,” Grant declared.

St Kitts has had problems with an unreliable power supply since it bought new generators in 1999.
