Citizens and taxpayers are raising eyebrows as Prime Minister Dr. Terrance Drew’s wife, Mrs. Jmesha Diani Prince-Drew, accompanies her husband on yet another state-funded extravagant overseas trip, this time to Washington DC and Istanbul, Turkey. A circulating WhatsApp message has sparked outrage on social media, labeling Mrs. Prince-Drew’s travels as a strain on the nation’s treasury.

The message highlights the alleged staggering costs, revealing that allegedly over $100,000 from taxpayers’ money has been spent on Mrs. Prince-Drew’s first-class travels in just six months. Meanwhile, concerns are mounting over the government’s allocation of funds, with critics pointing out discrepancies between lavish spending on overseas trips and the lack of support for struggling families.

The message condemns the government’s apparent disregard for the financial struggles of single mothers and low-income families, citing the recent reduction in financial assistance programs like LIFT. It accuses the government of prioritizing luxury travel over the welfare of its citizens, painting a picture of a heartless and uncaring administration.

As social media continues to buzz with discontent, taxpayers demand transparency and accountability from their elected officials, questioning the justification for such extravagant spending in the face of pressing social and economic challenges.
