While the two candidates from the major political parties spoke of debating or not debating issues, the independent candidate, Ernesto Torres, told Love News yesterday that he believes that this is the time for his victory.
ERNESTO TORRES
“I don’t ask people to vote for me, they call me and meet me on the street and they stop me whenever they see me and they promise and tell me they will vote for me so if it is true then that means this is the time for Mr.Torress. I am not against the concreting of streets, I have never been and never will but the mode of concreting was not in the best interest of the $40 million dollars that was spent. Belize City does not only need the streets concreted, from when they started the concreting of streets I was making noise to deal with drainage first and open drainage and separate the side walk from the drainage because of the rats and the roaches. We need to keep the our city residents healthy and safe. Our city has a leader but poor thing has no vision, he lives in the court. Most of the time the individual is in the court collecting salary from the tax payers and is tending to his thing. Moreover Darrell is not made for that office he is made for the office to be an area representative, perhaps to be a lawyer. He should have been working in the press office for the Prime Minister. When it comes to practicality and the needs of the city and the needs of people and making our traffic good the poor fellow doesn’t have the experience, poor thing. I don’t mean bad for him but what will happen is when I get into office on March 4th I will ask him to come around to give him a little training, him and Mr. Jeffries in Belmopan that is in Belmopan in charge of Belmopan poor things they need training.”
