NYC President-stop doing the blame game. Don't allow yourself to fall prey to politicians, but rather look for the stars and encourage the youth to persevere and to believe in themselves.
Tell them about respect and lead by example- it makes little sense to constantly bash your Youth Minister. Your peers will surely see through you.
Together let us aspire to greatness and don't be misled for you will stand alone when governments come and go.

Come on Mr. Anonymous, if anyone is falling prey to politicians it must be you. The NYC President simply pointed out the difficulties he has been having with the Ministry (not the Minister) and I am sure the young people of St. Lucia appreciate his advocacy on their behalf. The NYC President and Executive are holding voluntary positions and comparatively, with their limited resources, they are doing more for youth than the Ministry and Minister who are generously paid by us. The NYC President is therefore right to hold the Ministry's toes to the fire of accountability. If the Minister is your friend Mr. Anonymous, then tell him to get his Ministry to deal right with the NYC and stop your silly political attempt to undermine the NYC and its leaders.
