Cayon, St.Kitts (January 4th, 2024):-In a much-anticipated announcement back in August 2023, Prime Minister Dr. Terrance Drew revealed to the nation a groundbreaking discovery at the Cayon well drilling site – a potential solution to the long-standing water crisis. According to Dr. Drew, the find boasted an impressive 1 million gallons of water per day, promising swift relief to the drought-stricken residents.

However, nearly six months later, and an entire year since the initial proclamation, Cayon’s residents are still grappling with water scarcity. The promised pipes, touted as the lifeline to deliver this newfound resource, are yet to materialize. Frustration among citizens, particularly those in Cayon, is mounting as they question the authenticity of Dr. Drew’s assurances.

Despite the Drew administration’s commitment to resolving the water issue within its first six months, the reality paints a different picture. The administration inherited a shovel-ready, fully funded drilling project from the previous Dr. Hon. Timothy Harris-led Team Unity government. Instead of delivering on promises, the Drew administration appears to have mishandled the project, exacerbating the water crisis and intensifying the residents’ plight.

The lack of transparency and the apparent disregard for truthfulness by PM Drew have further fueled skepticism and discontent. Cayon residents are left not only grappling with water scarcity but also questioning the integrity of their elected leader, wondering if they were misled or outright deceived about the nature of their water relief. As the Drew administration approaches its second year in office, the water issue remains a glaring testament to broken promises and unfulfilled commitments.
