posted (May 10, 2018)
Prime Minister and UDP Party Leader Dean Barrow will soon depart as maximum leader. Deputy Patrick Faber has made no secret of his ambition to lead - and John Saldivar is also in the race to succeed Barrow.

Today, the media asked Faber how he feels about his standing in the race - and here's what he said:

Hon. Patrick Faber, Deputy Prime Minister
"I am ambitious. I have never hidden that. Yes that inevitable, that I will challenge not that I will win. Unless something happens beyond my control or if the father above has another plan for me."

Reporter
"Are you confident you stand a good chance?"

Hon. Patrick Faber, Deputy Prime Minister
"Absolutely. I have won conventions against my colleague who is a very good opponent for the chairmanship of the party and for the deputy leadership. I see no reason why the outcome will be any different for the leadership of the party."

A convention date has not been set as yet - and the date when it will be called is in the leader's hands.
