Selection of candidates for the final four constituencies on the PNM's slate will be done before 'September' says Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley. Was he hinting at a date? Well you guess is as good as ours.
00:0037 down, 4 more to go. The People's National Movement is closer to its 41
00:06constituency full slate after screening on Monday. Prime Minister-in-waiting
00:11Stuart Young will represent the Red Party at the Port of Spain North St.
00:15Anne's West Poles. He was uncontested alongside neighbouring representative
00:20Keith Scotland for Port of Spain South. Meeting six other candidates to
00:24represent Lisa Morris-Julian's W O'Meara, now Malabar Mausica, is financial
00:31analyst Dominic Romain. But it was not all smooth sailings as agriculture
00:36entrepreneur Devika Suku, daughter of former Agriculture Society president
00:41Danu Suku and unemployed Jason Saunders both went home disappointed. The duo
00:47screened for the Komodo Manzanilla seat. It was the second round of screening for
00:53the UNC held seat but don't tell the Prime Minister the candidates were
00:57rejected.
01:24Along with Komodo Manzanilla, the remaining seats to be decided upon are
01:29the Prime Minister's which he has saved for the past 45 years,
01:33Jago Martin West. Jago Martin Central now held by Simon de Nobrega and
01:39Kom Imbut's Jago Martin North East.
01:43Is that an indication of the election date? While the PM would not say much
01:54more.
01:57We have planned our programme and you will have seen it going very systematically, very smoothly, very effectively and we are almost at the end of the screening process and there are other developments that we are dealing with and in the end we will all come together for the general elections. And in the meantime the PM is still running the country.
