St Kitts and Nevis’ Ministry of Finance of St Kitts and Nevis has announced the revised retail prices for Unleaded Gasoline. The government issued a press release on Tuesday, August 23, 2022. 

It stated that the general public is advised of the following retail prices of Unleaded Gasoline as of August 24, 2022. 

  • The cost of Unleaded Gasoline at the Delta Service Stations will be $16.48 per gallon
  • The price of Unleaded Gasoline at the SOL Service Stations will be $16.08 for every gallon

The government of St Kitts and Nevis informed the general public that these are the maximum retail prices at which businesses can sell unleaded Gasoline at the respective service stations of the two companies working on the island.

The newly appointed administration of St Kitts and Nevis has announced various initiatives, including dropping the COVID-19 protocols, launching the new state-of-the-art machine in hospitals, etc. 

The PM Drew-led SKNLP Cabinet has announced and reaffirmed its decision that the Basseterre High School will be reconstructed and renovated on the original (allegedly contaminated) site. This announcement was made in a Cabinet Briefing issued on Monday, August 22, 2022.

Construction of the new Ultra Modern BHS had begun only recently with 100s of persons who had applied for jobs. They were being interviewed with scores already hired as land preparation, and other site construction activities began over the summer.

The Original site of the BHS remains the heart of the controversy which spurred the proposed relocation of the school and construction of a new ultra-modern high school. Hundreds of Teachers and School children were falling ill at the school, and most, if not all, attributed their illness to issues at the school and its environs. 

CARPHA was hired to locate the possible contamination that caused the illness, but their findings were inconclusive. Erring on the side of caution, the PM Harris Led Team Unity administration decided to build a brand new Ultra Modern High School at a new, much larger site.
