CARICOM expresses faith in VI leadership of Premier Wheatley & Unity Gov’t
In a Communiqué issued at the conclusion of the forty-third regular meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government held July 3-5, 2022, in Suriname, CARICOM noted the Order in Council to impose direct rule on the people of the Territory and expressed concern that it has been placed on reserve and can be immediately brought into force at the United Kingdom Government’s discretion.
“Heads of Government declared that the imposition of direct rule, and the history of such imposition in the Caribbean, was never intended to deliver democratic governance or to be an instrument of economic and social development of our countries and peoples,”
The Caricom Heads said they recognised that the success and modernisation of the VI is due to the effort and initiative of its homegrown leadership.
VI must be afforded every opportunity to provide good governance - CARICOM
“Heads of Government stated that the people of the BVI and their duly elected representatives must be allowed every opportunity to provide good governance in the country with full transparency and accountability,” the Communiqué said.
CARICOM also expressed faith in the leadership of Premier, Dr the Hon Nataloo D. Wheatley (R7) and the Government of National Unity and commended their commitment to implement the recommendations for reform as mutually agreed by the VI and the UK.
Finally, CARICOM endorsed the UN Special Committee on Decolonisation’s (C-24) approved draft resolution on the Question of the [British] Virgin Islands and will support its adoption at the next session of the UN Fourth Committee.
They encouraged all parties concerned to approve a C-24 visiting mission to the Virgin Islands and acknowledged that Member States will continue to support the territory’s decolonisation process.

Who the hell you guys are to be making Statements like this most of the people of the BVI dont want to hear anything you have to say,Wheatley & Unity Gov’t is not good for the BVI you guys feel that way because he is always up in your face. Try and fix your islands, we have the UK to answer to not you.
The disgraced former Premier Andrew A. Fahie is currently under house arrest in Florida, USA. The former Deputy Premier then, tee now current current Premier Dr. Natalio Sajande Wheatley is now the present Premier of the unity government political cabinet.
CARICOM expressed faithful support for him him. The majority of the eledgible voters will decide his faith coming next general election. Don't blame CARICOMM. They are it wrong for their support for the one that in the current leadership position. Blame Andrew A. Fahie, not Dr. Natalio Sajande Wheatley.
Next coming general election we will get to know whether he remained Premier or not. To pretend, write foolish blogs that attracts CARICOM's decision is nothing short of disrespectfulness of CARICOM rights of choice.
Sad, but true but some bloggers that wrote blogs are very ignorant, and do not know what to write.
Our character are known to others base on our words and actions.
It is far better to be quiet the to to speak and write foolishness.
Like the lender has power over the borrower, the wise has, and maintained power over the unwise.
All who oppose helpful knowledge and truth, and good judgement, also opposes wisdom.
I too have false in me. We all do.
