Independence 40 Address – September 19, 2023
Prime Minister of Saint Kitts and Nevis
Hon. Dr. Terrance Drew
My fellow citizens, residents, friends from around the world, and the vibrant youth of Saint Kitts and Nevis,
Today, I stand here on the hallowed grounds of what was once known as Pall Mall Square, a place where enslaved Africans were bought and sold like commodities. Forty years ago, on the 19th of September 1983, this Square was renamed THE INDEPENDENCE SQUARE, to commemorate the birth of our new nation of St. Christopher and Nevis! We must remember the significance of this Square. It is here that our journey towards self-determination and a brighter future began.
