Anthony Smith to be Sworn in as Agriculture Minister Tomorrow

Anthony Smith resigned from the UPP Monday afternoon

Anthony Smith, who resigned from the United Progressive Party on Monday, will be sworn in tomorrow as the country’s agriculture minister, a position that E.P. Chet Green currently holds.

Sources say Smith could also have responsibilities for the Blue Economy and others; however, our newsroom could not confirm that.

We do know and have confirmed that he will be sworn in at The Government House on Tuesday morning

Smith’s surprising resignation letter, which was only officially handed to the party hours ago, was very critical of the UPP.

Antigua.news broke the news that Smith was leaving the party earlier today

In his resignation letter, Smith made it clear that his goals and visions were not in line with the UPP

On January 18, Smith scored a decisive victory as the UPP’s Candidate for that constituency, unseating the Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party’s Michael Browne.

  1. What an idiot you people are. Don’t even know the constitution of Antigua? How can he be sworn in as agriculture minister for the ablp? He has to be independent in parliament.
    How moronic can this paper be. Journalistic integrity in Antigua is non existent. We can’t even trust that you will give us the proper news.
