Du lese grennen au degrennen

Black Immigrant Daily News

Alors que la faim gagne un plus grand nombre de compatriotes chaque jour et que l’espoir de lendemains meilleurs s’?loigne, il y a eu des manifestations toute la semaine ?coul?e pour protester contre la vie ch?re, la raret? des produits p?troliers, les prix exag?r?s des profiteurs du march? noir du gaz.

Les Ha?tiens ont aussi foul? le b?ton pour dire non ? l’ins?curit? et non au premier ministre Ariel Henry.

Les manifestations se sont d?roul?es ? Port-au-Prince mais surtout en province o? on compte le plus grand nombre de bless?s par balles et les premi?res sc?nes de pillage.

Le signal transmis par les ?v?nements de cette semaine est double : le m?contentement des insatisfaits est g?n?ral et les op?rateurs politiques sont de retour sur le terrain.

Comme il n’y a pas de fum?e sans feu, il n’y a pas de manifestations sans organisateurs.

Cela dit, ce qui para?t le plus inqui?tant c’est le silence du gouvernement en place. Pas un mot, pas une d?cision, pas une action.

Le premier ministre contest? s’est m?me pay? le luxe d’un voyage ? l’?tranger pendant que la temp?rature politique s’?levait.

Parti sans faire de bruit, Ariel Henry est revenu ? la cloche de bois.

On attend avec impatience les annonces et le bilan de sa rencontre avec les investisseurs ?trangers qui souhaitent investir en Ha?ti.

Le pays attend surtout la communication de la date d’arriv?e des ?quipements pour la PNH et le calendrier de la reprise de la livraison r?guli?re des produits p?troliers dans les stations-services.

Comme dans les derni?res ann?es de la pr?sidence du pr?sident Jovenel Mo?se, le premier ministre applique la politique de celui qui n’entend pas les bruits du pays ni les cris de la population.

Comme celui qui l’a nomm? ? la t?te du pays, le PM applique la politique du lese grennen. Cette forme particuli?re de gouvernance invent?e au 19e si?cle en Ha?ti.

Les adeptes du lese grenen, ? chaque crise, laisse faire les excit?s, convaincus que les opposants et les habitants de la cit? finiront par se lasser et que tout reviendra naturellement dans l’ordre.

Malheureusement, le lese grennen finit souvent en degrennen. En d?bandade. En perte de temps et d’opportunit?s pour le pays.

L’immobilisme et le <> s’?croulent sous le poids de la pesanteur, ce ph?nom?ne physique de la politique qui attire tout corps inutile vers le centre de de la terre.

Burna Boy coming for Tobago festival on October 27

Burna Boy

Grammy-winning Nigerian star Burna Boy will be coming to Tobago to perform at the Tobago Music, Arts and Culture Festival (TOMAC) on October 27 in Plymouth.

Known for mega hits such as Last Last, Ye and Kilometre, Burna Boy is arguably the top entertainer when it comes to Afrobeats. His performance will be smack in the middle of Tobago carnival, which officially will be held from October 28-30, but parties have been scheduled for the entire month of October.

At the festival’s media launch at the Plymouth Recreational Grounds on Thursday evening, co-organiser Arlene Lyons, who lives in the US but is originally from Tobago, said during the covid19 pandemic, she and her sister Corelli gave created two companies – Catch the Wave Solutions Inc and the Pride of Tobago Foundation.

She said Catch the Wave Solutions Inc is aimed at helping Tobago’s entrepreneurs who were struggling during the pandemic, while the Pride of Tobago Foundation will unearth and promote the island’s creatives.

Nylon Pool Productions, Island Breeze Entertainment Group and Catch the Wave Solutions Inc are the organisers of the event.

“TOMAC is not just an event. TOMAC is the natural outgrowth of this Lyons’ legacy and more specifically it is the manifestation of a movement started by this two-woman powerhouse, with the purpose of sparking what we call a cultural revival and an economic reawakening that draws on Tobago’s abundant talent to create hope, opportunity and prosperity for the people of Tobago for generations to come.”

The festival earmarked for October 24 to 28 at the Plymouth Recreational Grounds, she said will focus heavily on the African roots of the island and will offer youth empowerment, as well as historical information and artefacts.

Other artistes expected to perform at the event includes Kes the Band, Lyrikal, and Nailah Blackman. Veteran calypsonian Lord Nelson will also be honoured.

Duke reaffirms PDP control – axes deputies

Black Immigrant Daily News

PDP political leader Watson Duke with a PDP flag during a walkabout in Roxborough/Argyle during the last THA election. –

Progressive Democratic Patriots (PDP) political leader Watson Duke on Thursday invoked the PDP constitution to fire the party’s three deputy leaders – THA Chief Secretary Farley Augustine, Secretary of Health Dr Faith BYisrael and Alicia Roberts-Patterson.

The decision came on the day Augustine expressed disappointment at Duke’s handling of his portfolio as Deputy Chief Secretary and vowed to review Duke’s responsibilities.

Duke had publicly chastised the Tobago House of Assembly, in which his party holds a 14-1 majority, for its treatment of 27 members of the Roxborough Folk Performers in New York. Duke claimed the THA did not provide them with funding, and the performers were left to sleep on the streets hungry, and even in a basement with dead rats.

Augustine’s comments were not well received by Duke, who told Augustine on Thursday that he would not let a “political virgin” threaten him.

Less than 24 hours later, Duke invoked part 27.14 of the PDP constitution, which says: “The political leader may from time to time appoint up to three members of the party ‘in good standing’ to be deputy leader.”

It appears that Augustine, BYisrael and Roberts-Patterson are no longer in “good standing” with Duke.

The constitution further says a deputy leader “shall carry out such duties as the political leader shall assign to him.”

In a show of support at Augustine’s press conference at Shaw Park on Thursday, all the PDP THA secretaries apart from Duke were present.

Duke’s rift with Augustine might have had serious implications for his position within his own party had he not acted expeditiously.

Part 32.17-32.18 of the PDP constitution says: “A motion of no confidence in the political leader may be proposed before the National Executive Council. In order for it to pass, no less than two-thirds members of the National Executive Council shall vote in favour of the motion.”

The National Executive Council comprises the political leader, the three deputies, the party chair, the general secretary, treasurer, finance officer, members and mobilisation officer, the elections officer and PRO.

If Duke felt threatened by Augustine’s influence within the THA, the latter’s removal as deputy may have reaffirmed Duke’s control of the PDP, as the removed deputies are now ordinary party members.

A recourse available to the trio may lie in Part 37 of the constitution, which deals with dispute resolution and allows members to challenge the interpretation of any article of the constitution.
