Depuis le 12 septembre, le pays est paralys? et asphyxi?. Les ?coles n’ont pas pu rouvrir, les entreprises ont ferm?, jetant leurs employ?s sur le carreau. Les produits de base sont devenus inabordables. Et la population forc?e de garder la maison n’ose prendre les rues de peur d’?tre kidnapp?e.

Et voil? qu’un beau jour, faisant preuve de sa mansu?tude, l’homme <> par la police depuis des ann?es, vis? par des sanctions internationales cosm?tiques, annonce ouvrir la voie pour qu’? nouveau le carburant soit disponible. Et l’on s’appr?te ? reprendre le cours normal de la vie, comme si de rien n’avait ?t? ? Je n’ose y croire !

Celui dont les d?crets promulgu?s sous forme de vid?os ont pr?s?ance sur les d?clarations des autorit?s…. de pacotille. Quand on sait le nombre de personnes qui n’ont pu ?tre sauv?es faute de pouvoir contribuer en carburant au fonctionnement des h?pitaux, quand on sait le nombre d’enfants dont le cerveau est ? l’arr?t faute de pouvoir aller ? l’?cole, il est indignant de constater que le sort de dix millions de personnes est suspendu aux fantaisies d’un porte-flingue et de ses acolytes d?penaill?s.
Et ceux qui pr?tendent gouverner roulent carrosses, certains d’entre eux sont aur?ol?s de r?putations sulfureuses, d’autres d?barqu?s des avions. Ils n’en ont cure et leurs coll?gues d?pourvus d’odorat s’assoient ? leurs c?t?s ? la table du Conseil des ministres. Et la honte dans tout cela ?
? la faveur des derniers ?v?nements, le fonctionnement mafieux de certains membres de l’?lite ?conomique est d?masqu?, leurs liens avec les gangs qu’ils arment sont d?voil?s.

Il ne faut pas se laisser prendre en otage d’une rh?torique qui tend ? faire croire que les manifestations des rues ne sont le fait que des gangs aliment?s par des int?r?ts mafieux qu’il faut mater par la force. La perversit? de ce discours r?side en ce que tout futur mouvement de foule motiv? par la chert? de la vie, le refus des nouveaux prix du carburant, l’angoisse de parents aux abois, le d?sespoir de jeunes sans futur, pourra ?tre l?gitimement r?prim? par les forces internationales que l’on invite chez nous. L’argumentation du gouvernement r?v?le sa perversit? diabolique en d?l?gitimant ? l’avance toute expression de m?contentement populaire, les forces internationales venant ? l’appui de son maintien au pouvoir.

D’ailleurs, il est facile de taper sur les gangs. C’est la mode d’?reinter un gouvernement.

WITH a warning of fast rising river levels and severe weather, people living in flood-prone communities braced for more floods on Thursday.
This was based on advisories on Wednesday from the Meteorological Office which raised its riverine alert to orange and adverse-weather alert to yellow.
An orange-level warning means major river levels across Trinidad are near or above 80 per cent, and smaller watercourses are also at critical levels. The Met Office said periods of rainfall will likely continue over the next 36 – 48 hours resulting in further elevation of the river levels.
“As a result, there is now a high risk to public safety, livelihood and property. Run-off will be slow at high-tide times.”
On Wednesday, communities in Trinidad, from Sangre Grande, in the east, to Debe in the south, were swamped by floodwaters from overnight thundershowers on Tuesday.

In a statement, the Ministry of Rural Development and Local Government reported the conditions at major rivers neared full capacity.
It said, as of 4.30 pm on Wednesday the North Oropouche River was at 82 per cent capacity, down slightly by two per cent from the midday update. This river affects Sangre Grande and environs where floodwaters rose to up to four feet.
The El Carmen River, which feeds into the Caroni River and affects areas such as Madras Road, St Helena and Las Lomas, was 98 per cent full, rising two per cent since noon. Surrounding areas had experienced heavy flooding.
There was some runoff at the Caparo River where the levels dropped from 88 per cent midday to 51 per cent while the Arouca River remained the same at 37 per cent. The Aripo River dropped to 37 per cent from 48 per cent at noon.
High tides, forecast by the Met Office for 4.39 am and 4.14 pm Thursday, were expected to cause the rivers to rise once again.

It also said with increased rainfall and the high and spring tides, flooding will worsen in affected communities and hit new areas. The adverse-weather alert warned of periods of rain of varying intensities, with a medium-to-high (60-70 per cent) chance of heavy showers and thunderstorms producing intense rainfall in excess of 50 millimetres.
“Street/flash flooding and localised ponding are also likely in heavy downpours. Landslides/landslips are also possible in susceptible areas, as the land is already saturated. Gusty winds in excess of 55 km/h may be experienced, and seas can become agitated at times in sheltered areas.”
Rural Development and Local Government Minister Faris Al-Rawi toured the central and south communities while Works and Transport Minister Rohan Sinanan visited Sangre Grande on Wednesday.
Naziz Habib, a resident of Railway Road, Sangre Grande, said floodwaters began rising around 3 am on Wednesday, and 12 hours later it had not subsided. He blamed improper infrastructure, referring to a nearby development, for the flooding.

At a sub-station of the Sangre Grande Regional Corporation, chairman Anil Juteram said the cause was illegal and improper development. He said there are lots of land, for sale, which are on backfilled watersheds. He claimed approvals were given by the Town and Country Planning Division.
Juteram said he and his council members were bracing for more flooding with an outflow from the Tamana River on Wednesday afternoon. He was supervising sandbag deliveries at Neeranjan Street where residents said the flooding was the worst they had experienced since the catastrophic 2018 floods.
Housewife Asha Deonarine said she was affected by the 2018 floods when she lived in Kelly Village, Caroni, and after searching for a place that was not likely to flood, she found a home in Sangre Grande at Neeranjan Street. Last month her home flooded after torrential rains, and Wednesday morning she woke up to water in her bedroom. The water rose steadily throughout the day.
“The last flood we got, I lost a washing machine, bed, school supplies, everything. I had to buy back everything. When I get up quarter-to-three and I put my foot down, I touch floodwater. Since that hour I have been up.”
The 39-year-old said after last month’s floods she, her husband and their two teenage children considered moving again, but decided to make adjustments to mitigate the effect of the flooding. Those efforts were in vain and now they have no choice but to move out.

“I feel the next step is we have to get somewhere else and leave so we won’t have to go through this problem again.”
Deonarine said last month her family slept in their two vehicles, but with one down they had to sleep in one.
The Hardlys, whose home was a few breastrokes away, said they too had nowhere to go. Elphege Hardly said the flooding at his Picton Road, Sangre Grande, home is the worst since 2018. The 68-year-old and his wife Tsuanna said they lost everything Wednesday, and the authorities promised to visit them when the floodwaters subsided.
Al-Rawi said no shelters were opened as there were no requests to do so.
Shelters were last opened in June when the country braced for a tropical wave.
St Augustine MP Khadijah Ameen, in a release, called on Al-Rawi and other authorities to co-ordinate cordoning off flooded roads and re-direct traffic.

Ameen said the increased reports of stalled vehicles, vehicles pushed away by floodwaters, and the threat to life made it necessary for the authorities to intervene.
“The safety and protection of motorists cannot be left solely up to good Samaritans. This also applies to roads under threat of landslides which may also pose a danger to motorists.”

The upcoming Family Reunion: Love & Hip Hop Edition has been filmed in Jamaica with two of the islands stars, Spice and Safaree.
The show’s special edition, which is renewed for a third time, brings together all the old cast members and new members as they discuss the season, and some even try to hash out their issues. On Tuesday (November 8), Safaree confirmed that the show was wrapped as he shared an aerial view from the sky. “Another TV show filmed in Jamaica. GOD IS GOOD,” he wrote on Instagram Stories.
Love & Hip Hop also confirmed days ago that the show would be aired on November 28. “Yuh ready fi dis?! #LHHFamReunion is heading to Jamaica. Who are you most excited to see?” the show wrote on Twitter with an accompanying trailer.
The trailer of the upcoming show says that all of the members who started the show will feature along with the present cast. Among those who were seen in the teaser are Tokyo Vanity, Scrapp DeLeon, Teairra Mari, Lil Fizz, Nikki Mudaris, Alexis Skyy, Lyrica Anderson, Chrissy Lampkin, Mariahlynn Phresher & Jen, Amara La Negra, Trick Daddy, Jim Jones, and others.
The show is also drama-filled, with several women fighting, and Spice is seen taking a jug of juice and throwing it on a group of people sitting down.
Love & Hip Hop Atlanta has gone viral in the past few days with scenes of the moment Erica Mena gets the call that her Safaree’s divorce was finalized. Still, she was devastated to learn that while she is the children’s primary custodian, all of their financial responsibility is on her, as Safaree successfully proved in court that Erica was making more money than him.
“Like he doesn’t have to pay nothing of it?” Erica asks in the video.
A day before, Erica shared that Safaree wanted the court to award him joint custody so he could get Erica to pay him child support.
Safaree has not responded to the rumors, although there is a separate claim that he will pay $4,000 and change for child support. That claim has not been verified.

Pastor of the Shortwood United Church, Reverend Sylvan Hinds, is of the view that last month’s incident at Oberlin High School, during which several students fainted or acted ‘abnormally’, featured three significant elements, including a movement of the Holy Spirit.
The clergyman has also opined that the incident caused a counter move featuring “demonic forces”.
“My summary of the whole situation is that it was three-fold,” said Hinds while speaking during a virtual forum organised by Choose Life International (CLI) on Sunday.
“There was certainly a move of the (Holy) Spirit; it caused a counter move of the demonic forces, and for sure, there was the psychological and emotional, the anxiety and the panic attacks,” he added.
According to a report in the Christian media publication, Freedom Come Rain Online, Hinds is a senior pastor within the United Church in Jamaica and the Cayman Islands (UCJCI).
The publication also reported that “at least two of the students at Oberlin High School were baptised”, while 12 others went to church on the first weekend after the October 26 incident.
Speaking at the forum, Hinds said based on a request from the UCJCI, which started Oberlin High School in 1946, he was among several persons who visited the school to get a first-hand account of what took place on the day in question.
The Fayval Williams-led Ministry of Education and Youth indicated at the time that on October 26, the school’s administration reported that during the devotional exercise, a teacher who was leading the worship had an experience that included an extended period of “speaking in tongues”, which triggered a chain reaction of similar expressions among some students.
“Some students reportedly became overwhelmed, some falling to the ground. Other students and teachers attempted to bring calm to the situation, including praying with the affected children. Some were taken to the school nurse’s office,” said Williams in a statement then.
The minister shared that after the devotion, the students were sent to their classes. However, the agitated environment led some students to express feelings of being afraid, and others displaying what was described as “abnormal behaviour”.
The administration said given the overall circumstances at the time, school was dismissed early.
In the report on Sunday’s forum, Hinds said he went to the school the Tuesday following the incident and spoke to the teacher who shared “the word”, and a female student who was called up to the platform.
“First of all, she (the teacher) said she didn’t go up to do the devotion expecting what happened to happen,” Hinds was quoted as saying in the article.
Hinds elaborated that, “She (the teacher) said her message wasn’t anything new or strange, because (it is) the usual message they have given to the students.
“She spoke about the fact that they should cut out the conflicts, the bad word cursing, the drug use, the fighting, and all of that that is happening at the school. Then she told them that God is not pleased, and they need to repent, then (she) spoke in tongues.”
The series of events was confirmed by the West Rural St Andrew-based institution’s guidance counsellor and others who were present at the devotion, according to Hinds.
In speaking with the female student to gain her account of the events, Hinds said she told him and other members of the clergy that she “felt the presence of the Lord” when the teacher was speaking.
The girl is a Christian from the Church of God denomination.
At that time too, the reverend said the student related that she “began to shout and she began to share a message”, after which she was taken to the platform.
“She (the student) said she didn’t speak in tongues.
“One of the things we were hearing is that she spoke in tongues also, but she said she didn’t speak in tongues, she knows she spoke in English. She said she didn’t remember exactly what she said,” Hinds recounted.
Following that event, the student recounted to the religious leaders, including Hinds, that she was taken to the nurse’s quarters, where she saw other students exhibiting “demonic characteristics”.
One of those students reportedly uttered words threatening the female student, whose identity was not disclosed during the forum.
Hinds said the female student recounted that the Lord told her to speak in the ears of the student (who issued the threat) and tell her: “I love you”.
After the utterance of those words, the student who reportedly issued the threat to the female student “came back to life”, Hinds reported, paraphrasing the account that was told to him.
As reported by the publication, the clergyman described the female student as a “wonderful student” who usually goes outside of her church due to fear of such spiritual encounters.
However, Hinds said during the Oberlin High School incident, the child said she had no fear.
The UCJCI continues to offer support by visiting Oberlin High School.
After news spread of the activities during devotion at the school last month, the Education and Youth Ministry said it launched an investigation to help determine the protocols for school devotional exercises.
“While we encourage devotion in school, our school leaders have a responsibility to exercise caution as to content and likely impact on students, as evidenced by the reaction of students at Oberlin High School this morning,” said Education Minister Fayval Williams in a statement then.
There was much debate in the days following those comments by the minister relative to the caution that was issued relative to devotional exercises in school.
