Yesterday, the highly anticipated National Youth Rally, which took place at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, had to come to an abrupt and unexpected halt due to heavy rainfall.
The March Past ceremony had to be paused, and the event ended earlier than planned due to adverse weather conditions, much to the disappointment of Education Minister Daryll Mathew and the attendees.
The intermittent showers forced student marchers to leave the field a few times, and eventually, the education minister called an end to the event to ensure the safety and well-being of the participants.

What danger could the children have been in? The only danger seen was the rude ass police woman who ran out on the field and stood up in the path of the SDA school who basically said f it and continued thier march past. Gimme a damn break bout welfare of the kids!!! Not even 10 minutes later the sun was out!!
