GEORGETOWN (CMC):

THE CARIBBEAN Community (CARICOM) has sent congratula­tions to incumbent Prime Minister Dr Timothy Harris on the resounding victory in the general elections held on Friday.

“The overwhelmi­ng nature of the triumph at the polls indicates the scale of confidence that the people of the Federation of St Kitts and Nevis have in the ability of the party to guide them to a secure and prosperous future,” said CARICOM Chairman and Prime Minister of Barbados Mia Mottley.

She also congratula­ted the citizens of the twin- island federation on the smooth and peaceful conduct of the poll in spite of the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

In Friday’s poll, the Team Unity coalition, led by Harris, recorded a decisive nine-seat victory.

According to Harris, the electoral outcome is a clear indication that the policies and programmes introduced over the last five years had a positive impact on the lives of all citizens and residents.
