NDP Ends 25-Year Rule in Kingstown, Godwin Friday Becomes PM

In a landmark shift for Vincentian politics, the New Democratic Party (NDP) has won the 2025 general election in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, ending a 25-year rule by the Unity Labour Party (ULP). This victory paves the way for NDP leader Godwin Friday to become the country’s seventh Prime Minister. The election outcome reflects a strong desire for change in the Vincentian electorate, with the new leadership pledging tangible economic and social reforms. The NDP campaigned on easing cost-of-living pressures, supporting working families, improving employment prospects, and a more responsive governance. While this victory signals hope, the task ahead for Godwin Friday, as Prime Minister-designate, is monumental in delivering on these ambitious promises.
