Finance Minister Foresees National Hardship Amid Economic Struggles

Finance Minister Dave Tancoo has sounded a warning of impending hardship to the nation amid a faltering energy sector, stagnant economic growth and a rising national debt. This cautionary message, which was delivered without specifying a date for the forthcoming Budget, is starkly at odds with the optimistic promises made by the UNC during the elections four months ago. Then, the UNC had promised to create 50,000 new jobs, stimulate economic growth, diversify the economy, revitalize the energy sector, and significantly increase public servants’ salaries. The nation now anxiously awaits the unveiling of Budget 2026.
