Independence Address to the Nation by Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis, Dr. the Hon. Timothy Harris

Thursday, September 19, 2019 

My Fellow Citizens and Residents,

This time-honoured tradition of bringing Independence greetings to the people of the nation holds a special significance for me.

Indeed, this time-honoured tradition is deeply important to me, when 36 years ago the new national flag was raised one minute after midnight, symbolizing our journey into Nationhood.  Our Nation also gained a new National Anthem, and a new Constitution, the supreme law of the land.  We record our gratitude and appreciation to all who participated in the struggle against colonialism and to whom we owe the success of our independence journey. We give special recognition to Kenrick Georges and Edrice Lewis for producing our beautiful National Anthem and National Flag respectively.   We thank our National Heroes for inspiring us with their outstanding patriotic service.
