Kamla Persad-Bissessar to Contest UNC Leadership Again as Elections Loom

In a bold announcement, Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar declared her intention to run for the leadership of the United National Congress (UNC) in the upcoming internal elections. Speaking at the UNC Monday Night Report held at Penal Secondary School, she emphasized her readiness, stating, “If you want it, come and take it. I will be waiting.” Persad-Bissessar, who has held the leadership position since 2010 after defeating Basdeo Panday, has consistently outmaneuvered all challengers, including notable figures like Dr. Roodal Moonilal and Vasant Bharath. The party’s National Executive is set to convene this week to determine the election date, marking a significant moment for the UNC as it prepares for the leadership contest.
