Sagicor Insurance Reinforces Security: No More Carnival Fiascos!
Sagicor Insurance seems determined to avoid a repeat of last year’s carnival fiasco.
After revelers turned their fence into a casual meet-and-greet spot, the company ended up picking up the tab for the repairs. This year, they’re not taking any chances.
At yesterday’s T-shirt mass, the fence was not just a fence but a fortress, complete with heavy security. It looks like they’re taking their “fence” of safety very seriously—no more shattered barriers for them!

I agree with them to protect their property by any means necessary. It is likely to be cheaper to hire security for a day than to rebuild or replace the fence. Just a smart business decision. My fellow Antiguans, we can have fun without destroying other people’s property. Come on guys, let’s do better. Would you want someone to destroy your property? Stay blessed
