Providenciales, TCI, December 6, 2016 – Some residents expressed outrage after learning that on Sunday the Premier was speaking to Haitians while attending one of their churches about the strides of his Administration and voting for the PNP. Magnetic Media yesterday asked the Premier, Rufus Ewing about that appearance, he said he was invited.
“I was invited by the pastors, I didn’t barge in and say I want the pulpit, I was invited by several pastors that day, actually I went to three churches, I was invited by all of them to come and speak to their congregation.”
There were comments that the PNP Leader was begging for votes from the pulpit; others did not like the message related to Haitians becoming legal residents through PNP Administration changes to the Immigration laws. But the Premier says it is true, he was stating what his administration has done and nothing more.
“I wasn’t promising Belonger status, I was basically just saying that those individuals, those children who were born here, who came here all of their lives, those individuals who deserve to be here, they have nowhere to go. They don’t know Haiti, some of them never seen Haiti, right, so we need to regularize those persons, embrace them, empower them so they can move on to the pathway to citizenship. This exist now.”
