Prime Minister Harris commends police for job well done on J’ouvert morning 

BASSETERRE, ST. KITTS, December 28, 2018 (PLP PR Media Inc.) — Prime Minister and Minister of National Security Dr the Hon Timothy Harris, who was on Wednesday December 26 morning among the thousands who turned out for J’ouvert, has hailed the activity as a very good experience.

“The experience has been a very good one,” said Prime Minister Harris who, in company of the Hon Ian Patches Liburd, was stationed at the Old Treasury Building in downtown Basseterre where hundreds of revellers stopped by to hug him and pose for pictures with him. “Persons clearly enjoyed themselves very well, including the tourists.
