The Prime Minister of St Kitts and Nevis Dr Terrance Drew has shared that he is witnessing a massive surge of misinformation regarding the special sustainability zones. The act has become a point of contention for the people of the country and rumours regarding the nature of the legislation have been causing panic.
The officials have shared that the members of the community are being misled with half formed conclusions regarding the act. The opposition especially is making all possible efforts to introduce unfounded rumours suggesting that the act will serve as a landgrab law.
In light of this, the Prime Minister has shared that it is important for the people of St Kitts and Nevis to get the facts of the matter on their own and not rely on any of the unofficial sources of news. As such, the Prime Minister shared that the members of the community will be able to access the legislation for free from the front desk at the Government Headquarters.
The Prime Minister had personally ensured that the government headquarters had the copies in question available for the people. He also announced that it was their responsibility to make sure that they are not playing a role in propagating misinformation.
The people of the country will be able to get access to this act for understanding the law for all that it entails. The officials have shared that while the people of the island are worried about privatisation of the land of the island nation.
However, the act itself does not feature anything like that and the people of St Kitts and Nevis have no reason for panicking. Even though the whole nation is panicking due to the media outlets spreading misinformation, the Prime Minister has urged the people of the country to make sure that the people take responsibility to make sure that they do not follow any sources of information blindly without taking it upon themselves to check.
