Independence Day greetings from IDA – call for reforms, unity, Tobago autonomy, and addressing crime in Trinidad and Tobago.
The Innovative Democratic Alliance (IDA) extended Independence Day greetings to the citizens of Trinidad and Tobago. As the nation celebrates its 62nd anniversary of independence, the IDA reflects on the country’s rich history, cultural diversity, and resilient spirit. While acknowledging the nation’s achievements, the IDA urges citizens to confront ongoing issues, particularly the concentration of power in the executive branch, which has weakened the democratic process and contributed to rising crime. In Tobago, the struggle for greater autonomy and the alarming increase in violent crime highlights the need for effective governance. The IDA stated that it is committed to advocating for reforms that empower citizens, enhance Tobago’s autonomy, and restore faith in democratic institutions.
