On Friday night, the People’s Place at the ABLP Headquarters on Nugent Avenue buzzed with excitement as scores of Dominican nationals gathered to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the Dominica Labour Party (DLP).

The event, chaired by Ambassador Emmanuel Nathan, President of the DLP, underscored the strengthening relationship between the Labour parties of Antigua and Dominica.

Among the attendees were several DLP Members of Parliament who delivered impassioned remarks emphasizing the importance of unification and progress among all Dominicans.

Key figures included Cozier Fredrick, Minister of Environment; Getta Roberts, Minister of Governance; Cassani Laville, Minister of Health; and Irvin McIntyre, Minister of Finance.

Each speaker highlighted the need for solidarity, especially during these challenging times.
