"body": "An eight-year-old boy was critically injured and airlifted to the United States for medical treatment following a shooting at a hotel in North Bimini on Saturday night.\n\nAuthorities have not released detailed information about the incident, but the boy's 12-year-old brother has been taken into custody in connection with the shooting.\n\nAccording to police reports, medical personnel at the Bimini Community Clinic informed law enforcement shortly after 9 p.m. that a young boy had been admitted with gunshot wounds above his left eyebrow and at the rear of his head.\n\nThe child was transported to Fort Lauderdale for urgent medical attention shortly after midnight. His current condition is not known.\n\nPreliminary investigations suggest that the shooting occurred while the victim and his brother were in a hotel room. The boy's 12-year-old brother was handed over to the authorities by their uncle and subsequently arrested. The circumstances of the shooting are still unclear, and the case remains under active investigation. A team of officers from Grand Bahama has been dispatched to assist with the ongoing inquiries.",

"title": "The Snuffed Out Torch: Why Selfish Pintard and His Executive Must Resign - their true slogan was \"We working for me, not you.\"",
"body": "Pintard has cemented his legacy in Bahamian history as \"none and done.\" - HE MUST RESIGN!\n\nNever in the history of the Free National Movement (FNM) has the executive body so shamelessly abandoned its duty to build the party, choosing instead to cannibalize it for personal ambition. Driven by overt selfishness, Michael Pintard and his inner circle treated the party apparatus like a private vehicle for self-advancement, leaving party\n\nTo insulate themselves, these executives systematically steamrollered local machinery, staging inside coups to stack constituency associations with loyalists to force through their own nominations. Though the constitution doesn't explicitly bar them from running, their arrogant, private mantra was clear: \"The constitution means nothing to me.\" Sitting on their own selection committees, they acted as their own judges and juries -- nepotism of the highest order.\n\nBut Karma came to claim its due. This scheme of internal manipulation yielded a historic, catastrophic wipeout. Every single one of these self-serving executives lost their bid at the polls, with the solitary exception of Lincoln Deal.\n\nThe blame falls equally on weak, cowardly Central Council members. Enticed by hollow promises and whispers of contracts, they turned a blind eye to blatant constitutional violations and a rigged convention. Their priority was contracts over country; their true slogan was \"We working for me, not you.\" Now their hopes are dashed, and they are left holding the ashes of an extinguished torch.\n\nThis internal rot strips the FNM of any moral authority. How are they any different from the PLP? Oh, right -- the PLP actually won. In fact, the PLP royally handed Pintard a \"whip wap.\" The defeat was so scorching they had to borrow Sebas Bastian's famous \"whip wap\" fans just to cool down from the steam of their own burnt-out torch.\n\nCheaters never win. From rigging the Women's Association election to violating the constitution to let unauthorized people vote while blocking the duly elected secretary from taking notes. This leadership started wrong and ended in ruins.\n\nWhen Hubert Minnis lost in 2021, the precedent was set: he stepped down. Yet Pintard has managed to lose three successive elections in a single cycle, and still lacks the manly fortitude to resign.\n\nMichael Pintard and his failed executive team must step down immediately. Power is entirely elusive, and Pintard has cemented his legacy in Bahamian history as \"none and done.\"",

"body": "Former Senior Politician's wife was promised to be appointed Minister for Education - IT DID NOT HAPPEN!\n\nNASSAU| More disappointments are coming in from the FNM following a disappointing defeat at the May 12th General Elections.\n\nBahamas Press has been reliably informed that former Works Minister Neko Grant was promised the top job as Governor-General of the Bahamas if the FNM was successful.\n\nGrant, who served as the MP for Central Grand Bahama for 25 years, was hoping the promise would come true, but it was not to be.\n\nAlso hoping to come back into frontline politics was the 12% VAT TAX increase man, Peter Turnquest.\n\nTurnquest, early in the campaign last year, was promised a nomination for the FNM, but somehow, as Pintard assembled his Broke Violent team, Peter never made the cut.\n\nTurnquest, yinner recall, was at the center of a US Grand Jury investigation involving his former employer at the now defunct airline, Sky Bahamas. That was too much for the FNM to rehash!\n\nMeanwhile, scores of FNMs, after being promised posts, titles, appointments, and contracts, want nothing to do with the present FNM leadership. One bigtime supporter also missed the Government House Opposition events in hopes of keeping his big government contract. The FNM collects $10,000 in contracts from the Davis Government every month.\n\nA former politician's wife in the FNM was promised the Minister of Education top job and her sister-in-law was also promised by the FNM one fat juicy contract if the party got elected. None of it happened.\n\nThe politician's wife's sister-in-law has flown out of the country for psychological treatment.",

That member is now in the Parliament yard for good - THANKS TO THE PEOPLE OF ST JAMES!\n\nWhat is interesting this past week, though, was the behaviour of the Opposition MP for Killarney Michela Barnett-Ellis who promised the people of her constituency that she will fight for women's rights in Parliament if elected. She broke that promise, because on the first day of Parliament, in the first act of Parliament, she stood up on the floor of Parliament opposing the appointment of a woman (HOUSE SPEAKER DEVEAUX); Barnett-Ellis first failed act against women in the country! Yinner think the women dem ga say something about this? YOU CANNOT TRUST THE NEW KILLARNEY MP, BAHAMAS, AND WE AT BP GA HAVE PLENTY TO SAY ABOUT Michela Barnett-Ellis going forward.\n\nAnyway, Patricia is back, she is strong, she is a BIG DEAL! We know she will whip and whap that Parliament in line all day!\n\nBP congratulates House Speaker The Honourable Patricia Deveaux on her elevation as leader of the high court of Parliament!",

"body": "NASSAU| Alrich Rick Fox's failed bid to become an MP in the Bahamas has now landed him a job in the Senate at a salary of $16,000.\n\nThe man who claimed to have a net worth more than Denzel Washington at $469 million has hired an American PR firm to do his press releases, the Nassau Guardian claimed today. WE HOPE THEY GET PAID!\n\nFox had promised that, if elected, he would give his MP salary back to the constituency, begin a $10 million investment fund, construct a youth sports center and provide 25 $10,000 small business grants each year.\n\nWith all that said and with the kind of wealth Fox claimed to possess, if he really is worth $469 million he should give his $16,000 salary to Charity and start his youth sports center like how Sebas Bastian - with millions less - built Fort Charlotte a Community Centre in just one month. We don't believe Fox possesses a quarter of what he claims to have in wealth.\n\nMind you, if Rick Fox's wealth was really as he claimed, he would not be giving out $20 gas vouchers, but would have given the mothers dem in Garden Hills a full tank of gas on Mother's Day.\n\nDuring his swearing-in ceremony, Fox had on a suit which looked as old as his NBA draft days. All we say is this: if ya really have more wealth than Denzel Washington, then construction on that new sports centre should not be a problem, hey?\n\nAHH, WELL! From $35 million to a salary of $16,000 - WHAT IS THIS, RICK?",

One of the passengers in isolation, is a British national who lives in Australia and the other is a French national. Bartlett said the pair have only exhibited fever symptoms and that the risk to the public is low.\n\nAlong with Bartlett, Ministry of Health Dr. Michael Darville, Minister of Foreign Affairs Fred Mitchell and Dr. Nikkiah Forbes, the director of the National HIV/AIDS and Infectious Disease Programme at the Ministry of Health, were also at last night's press conference, which was held at LPIA.\n\nBartlett said health officials obtained contact tracing information from all other passengers and crew.\n\n\"The two passengers in question reportedly had a travel history which placed them in the Democratic Republic of Congo for approximately three weeks before traveling on to Ethiopia and then to The Bahamas,\" she said.\n\n\"Upon the flight's arrival in New Providence the Ministry of Health and Wellness immediately implemented its health protocol which included placing the two passengers in isolation. Subsequently, the other passengers and crew on board the flight were assessed.\"\n\nShe said further assessments will be managed according to established national and international guidelines.\n\n\"All relevant infection prevention and control measures are being implemented,\" she said.\n\n\"No confirmed infections have been identified at this time. Based on the information currently provided to The Ministry of Health and Wellness, the risk to the public is low. The Ministry will continue its monitoring and evaluation protocols and provide updates as needed.\"\n\nThe other 216 passengers were released.",

"title": "Two isolated at LPIA amid Ebola concerns",
"body": "HEALTH officials on Friday isolated two passengers at the Lynden Pindling International Airport after the travellers, who recently visited the Democratic Republic of Congo, were found to have a fever amid concerns over an Ebola outbreak in Africa.\n\nOfficials stressed that no confirmed Ebola infections have been identified and maintained that the risk to the public remains low.\n\nA press briefing was held at the Lynden Pindling International Airport (LPIA) following reports received by the Ministry of Health and Wellness that the two passengers had travelled from Africa to The Bahamas via Heathrow Airport after spending approximately three weeks in the Democratic Republic of Congo before travelling to Ethiopia.\n\nActing Chief Medical Officer Dr Jillian Bartlett explained that teams from the Ministry of Health and Wellness activated health protocols, including placing the two passengers into isolation.\n\nShe noted that enhanced contact tracing information was also obtained from all passengers and crew members on the flight.\n\nThe two passengers are pilots who were conducting cargo flights. One is a British national living in Australia and the other is a French national living in France.\n\nHealth officials confirmed the pair were among 218 passengers and crew members aboard the aircraft. Officials noted that the risk to passengers who were not in close proximity to the pair, as well as airport personnel, is low at this time.\n\nDr Bartlett said \"no confirmed infections\" have been identified in the two passengers. She added that, based on information currently available to the Ministry of Health and Wellness, the risk to the public is low.\n\nThe two passengers will continue to be monitored at an isolation site at the airport.\n\nDirector of the Infectious Disease Programme at the Ministry of Health and Wellness Dr Nikkiah Forbes revealed that the two travellers were screened and found to have a fever, but had no additional symptoms up to press time. Other passengers on the flight were also screened.\n\n\"While we are in the process of monitoring the two passengers with fever, we have put in place recommendations for other passengers on the plane,\" Dr Forbes said.\n\n\"So at this time, even in certain scenarios, the entire fleet of passengers would not need to have any additional screening tests or anything at this time. So we are fully compliant with all international recommendations for infection prevention and control, contact tracing, and surveillance.\"\n\nDr Forbes explained that a fever can be caused by various reasons.\n\nAsked whether the two passengers tested positive for any infections, Dr Forbes responded that they had not tested positive for any infectious disease.\n\nShe explained that although the pair spent approximately three and a half weeks in the Democratic Republic of Congo, they were not in an area currently experiencing an Ebola outbreak or reporting cases.\n\nShe added that the pair engaged in low-risk activities, were not in contact with Ebola patients, did not attend funerals and did not handle bodily fluids or other materials of concern. She noted they were mostly isolated in a home and did not display common Ebola symptoms.\n\nInitially, reports circulated that the two passengers were infected with Ebola, sparking public concern.\n\nThe health scare comes as parts of Africa battle an Ebola outbreak that has killed hundreds of people.\n\nOn Friday, World Health Organisation Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the organisation revised its assessment of the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo to \"very high at the national level, high at the regional level, and low at the global level\".\n\nIn an update on Friday, Dr Tedros also said the risk in the wider African region remained \"high\", but \"low\" globally.\n\nAccording to the BBC, the rare Ebola strain known as Bundibugyo has no proven vaccine and kills about a third of those infected. The broadcaster reported that the outbreak centred in the Democratic Republic of Congo has resulted in 177 suspected deaths and 750 suspected cases.\n\nThe Associated Press also reported that an incident manager on the Democratic Republic of Congo's national Ebola response team disclosed that suspected Ebola patients had mixed with the general population at hospitals in the region.\n\nEbola is a rare and often fatal illness caused by a group of viruses known as Orthoebolaviruses. Symptoms include fever, severe headache, fatigue, muscle and joint pain, sore throat and weakness, progressing in severe cases to vomiting, diarrhoea and stomach pain.\n\nAccording to Reuters, the United States on Friday temporarily banned the entry of lawful permanent residents who have been in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda or South Sudan within the previous 21 days because of Ebola concerns.\n\nReuters reported that while US citizens, nationals and green card holders had previously been exempt from a 30-day Ebola ban, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention determined that extending the restriction to green card holders was necessary to prevent the virus from entering the country.\n\nDuring the press conference, Minister of Health and Wellness Michael Darville said any decision regarding possible travel bans for passengers from affected countries entering The Bahamas would have to be discussed by the government.",

"title": "Being safe and staying safe with Brave",
"body": "Dear Editor,\n\nIn the tumultuous arena of politics, where trust and stability are often elusive, Philip Edward \"Brave\" Davis has emerged as a beacon of hope for the Bahamian people. His leadership style, which is characterized by empathy and innovation, has not only garnered respect (even from across the other side), but has also fostered an environment where safety -- (both physical, social and fiscal), can/is able to thrive.\n\nIn this age of uncertainty, Davis' approach to governance is a testament to the power of compassionate leadership, making it imperative for us to support his vision of safety and security for all.\n\nBrave has assembled an impressive coalition of youthful minds, business entrepreneurs and a significant number of female parliamentary leaders.\n\nThis diverse team reflects a commitment to inclusivity and representation, ensuring that the voices of marginalized groups are heard.\n\nBy prioritizing the needs of the oppressed and downtrodden, the prime minister promotes a sense of belonging and safety within the community.\n\nThis is particularly crucial in a political landscape often marred by partisanship and divisive tactics.\n\nWhen a leader acknowledges the struggles of the underrepresented, it cultivates trust -- a necessary ingredient for societal safety.\n\nThe political climate in The Bahamas can be likened to a high-stakes game, (it's really the hunger games, only in real time) where the electorate often decides based on the perceived trustworthiness of their leaders.\n\nDavis' ability to empathize with the populace sets him apart from his predecessors.\n\nHis tenure has demonstrated that he is not just another politician seeking power; he genuinely cares about the well-being of his constituents.\n\nThe lessons learned from the political missteps of figures like Hubert Minnis -- who, despite once holding an influential position, found himself vulnerable and discarded -- serve as a reminder of the importance of maintaining a leadership style rooted in compassion and understanding.\n\nThe same can be said for other previous office holders.\n\nMost impressive is the prime minister's innovative leadership which has also enabled him to navigate the complex geopolitical landscape that defines our times.\n\nBy engaging with global financial institutions, while simultaneously advocating for the needs of local communities, he has demonstrated a unique ability to balance fiscal responsibility with social justice.\n\nThis is no small feat; it reflects a profound understanding of the interconnectedness of global and local issues.\n\nSafety, in this context, is not merely about physical security but also about economic stability and social equity.\n\nThe \"Speech from the Throne\" serves as a manifesto for his government to prioritize progress over stagnation.\n\nIn a world where the rhetoric of \"next level\" often masks a descent into chaos and uncertainty, Davis' commitment to collective progress is reassuring.\n\nHe invites us to envision a future where safety is not an afterthought but a fundamental right for all citizens.\n\nThis vision is vital, especially in challenging times when geopolitical tensions can lead to anxiety and fear within our communities.\n\nIn conclusion, supporting Davis is not just about backing a political figure; it's about embracing a vision of safety that encompasses emotional, economic, and social dimensions.\n\nAs we navigate the complexities of our political landscape, let us collectively choose progress, recognizing that true safety can only be achieved when we uplift and empower all members of our society.\n\nDavis embodies this vision, and it is through his leadership that we can aspire to create a safer, more inclusive Bahamas for everyone.\n\nLong live \"Brave\" and his brave vision for the 242.\n\nWe will choose progress errytime!\n\n-- Diogenes",
