Caribbean Shores Representative Kareem Musa Confident of 2025 Election Victory

As the general elections inches closer, the Area Representative for Caribbean Shores, Kareem Musa has expressed confidence of another win come 2025.  Musa spoke on the elections last week and told the media that while he does not take the voters for granted, he has confidence in his team in the division.

Kareem Musa, Minister of Home Affairs: “You know me and my team, and I always want to acknowledge the efforts because it’s not a singular effort on my part I have a very supportive cast behind me as well as the community. I think that we have done a lot in a very short period of time especially when it comes to the safety and security of our neighborhoods working along with neighborhood watch groups, putting up cameras in the area, police booths in the area and fixing all of the parks that has been something that I have been very proud of. We have I believe the most parks per capita in the entire country and we’re now on our sixth park the Noel Ferguson Park that we are actually refurbishing. Hopefully that will be done within the next three weeks o so and so it’s just a lot of work continuing to work delivering services to our people of Caribbean Shores, groceries to our elderly, land distribution to our constituents who have been landless for so long especially our young people. I find that that has had a great impact and especially housing. I think we have done a magnificent job as a government in distributing houses to our people and very good concrete cement houses that they’re so proud to have a roof over their heads and I look forward to the next five years of just continuing the work that we’ve been doing. I know that I personally have a big project in mind and that is repairing the MCC Grounds, the historic, legendary MCC Grounds which sits in my constituency. I’ve already been given the assurances from the Prime Minister that that will be on the table moving forward so in terms of big projects that’s something that we have to look forward to. I’ve never looked at my opponents as opponents really. Just trying to work along with them if they’re interested in working along with me. I know that Ms.Nelma Mortis has a history of working in mediation and certainly I’ve met with her even in other forums prior to her announcing her candidacy but I never size up my opponents, I don’t take any of them lightly. I certainly give all of them equal weight but at the end of the day the people will decide based on my track record, my performance and my team’s performance and so moving forward that is just going to be my focus on what we’re doing.”

Musa’s opponent in the general election will be UDP’s Dr Nelma Mortis.
