As you saw at the top of the news, the Fortis debate dominated the day at the House of Representatives. And so it almost passed without notice that a
new Representative for Dangriga was sworn in. He is Frank Pawpa Mena, the 19th. Representative on the UDP side of the House. In his brief
address after taking the oath – he said unity is needed:..
Hon. Frank "Pawpa" Mena - Area Representative, Dangriga
"Time to unite is now; we need to unite as one. With the deep hope of our ancestors; we are a great people, intelligent and strong. We come from
greatness; it's in unity that we have development. May god be the leader of all our under takings"
And following up on the theme of unity – we note that Mena was sworn in by and shook the hand of the Clerk of the National Assembly Eddie Webster –
notable because in 2014, there was an apparently bogus report that Webster had set up a hit on Mena.
