What this APNU+AFC Coalition has done during its first four years in Government has been significantly overshadowed by the No Confidence Motion controversy. It was good to hear our Head of State outline some of the things the Government was able to do and in the same breath acknowledge the things it was unable to do to the extent he would have been more comfortable with. In relation to corruption, a former president used to always say to the people who accused his administration of corruption, that they must bring the evidence, and never did anything to unearth the evidence and eliminate or minimise corruption.
This same former president, during the campaign for the last Local Government Election, he spoke about taking back the country through Local Government Election and democracy at the grass root level, yet his government and party never attempted to hold these elections.
One of the most important promises that were made by the Coalition in its manifesto were the holding of Local Government Election, holding of this election twice in four years is a manifestation of its commitment to local democracy and what made it more spectacular the Government held it knowing they would have lost it.
