    Question is that land public property??? Who owns the land in this area can someone tell me… Some say it is the Anglcan Church… I would like to know if the Church is involved in this matter…Is the property private and compulsory acquired??? Is this land that was bought with taxpayers money??? Is this project in the best interest of the citizens of Antigua Barbuda??? Who’s really benefitting from all these projects said to be for the development of the nation of Antigua Barbuda??? Are we bring deceived by the elected member or members of Parliament??? I guess time will tell…!!! Wickedness will not go unpunished… A word to the wise…!!!
