Basseterre, Saint Kitts, November 09, 2026 (SKNIS): Prime Minister of Saint Kitts and Nevis, the Honourable Dr. Terrance Drew, made a clarion call for all citizens to be a part of the solution in national development, while abandoning hurtful and destructive rhetoric that attempts to undermine the incredible gains achieved to date.

France General Hospital, through “irresponsible statements.” Dr. Drew labelled these statements as “trying to bring down your whole country on the altar of politics.”
