Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham revealed yesterday that he intends to once again lead his party into the next general election because the unforseen economic downturn would likely mean an unfinished agenda.
He cited his experience, contacts and the current projects currently underway as good reasons to seek re-election in the next general election.
Ingraham made the bombshell announcement at a meet the press event held at the British Colonial Hilton in downtown Nassau.
He is expected to once again go head to head with Progressive Liberal Party Leader Perry Christie, who has said repeatedly that he is preparing the PLP to form the next government of The Bahamas.
Asked whether he intends to stay on as FNM leader and lead the party into the next general election, Ingraham said emphatically, “Yes.”
It triggered thunderous applause from the audience gathered at the event.
