00:00So when you vote, don't vote for a bicycle.

00:07Take the bicycle, but your vote is more than a bicycle.

00:12When you vote, don't vote for a stove.

00:16If you need a stove, because I don't have a stove to give you at this point in time.

00:21So if you need a stove, take the stove, but your vote is worth more than a stove.

00:27Mr. Dennis explained further as he referenced the men on the block.

00:32If you need $1,000 and they're giving you, take it.

00:36But your vote is worth more than $1,000.

00:40And I want to say in closing to the young men, especially on the block,

00:44because they see you as quite vulnerable and they see you as senseless.

00:49So they will come to you with $300 and $500

00:52and they will sit on the block all day attempting to buy your vote.

01:00But guess what?

01:03Remember that the last time you got a $500 for your vote,

01:08which was in 2021,

01:12and maybe you got some more money to vote in the general election.

01:15Just remember that by the same night of the election,

01:19the $500 did finish.

01:22And when you call the phone the next day,

01:25they did not answer you.

01:27They did not give you anything that they promised

01:29and they totally ignored you up to now.

01:33PNM candidate for Signal Hill Patience Hill, Brian Harris, said

01:37while he intends to serve the people of the electoral district,

01:41he cannot do it alone.

01:42Brian Harris is a person that cares about his community,

01:46cares about the people, cares about, by extension, the whole of Tobago.

01:52And my intention is to serve to the best of my ability by God's grace.

01:57And at the end of the day, I can't do it by myself.

02:01We need everyone to be on board.

02:04We need everyone to step out.

02:06And let's put Tobago first again.

02:08Elizabeth Williams, TV6 News.

02:10We need everyone to be on board.
