Young Cricketer Vonde Bowers Stabbed to Death in Antigua

🤣🤣🤣

This is a sad ending of a young man with a bright future. He wanted to become somebody but living in the ghetto with jealous people who don’t want no good. Who in their right mind will take the life of such an aspiring boy? Satan came to kill, steal and destroy so parents have to ray for their children. Where are the Father’s of such a person who is so angry to kill that boy like that. This country need a spiritual awakening. My God, my sympathy to his family. It could have been that one to bring his family out of the slumbs of graysfarm.

To lose a young talent like Vonde Bowers in such a senseless way is a blow to Antiguan cricket and beyond. His death should serve as a wake-up call.

Government minister will meet with the gang members and let them walk free to kill again, the gangs mocking the PM thinking they are untouchable, why they are not in jail from previous killing tell us why.

We need unity love equal rights and justice and it’s going to take the whole island to defeat this energy,yes we can sit and cast blame but it won’t do a thing but set us back,coming together is the only way,my condolences to the family.

Terry you are full of nothing. In today’s world if the news don’t go out to the public how will the outside world know what is going on

Wishful thinking
They can’t pay pensioners so where is the money to come from to put up cameras

Sad. Condolences

Do you all really think a change of government will change people ways or their way of thinking? I think not. ABLP or UPP people will continue to do what they want to do.
There are no lack of jobs in Antigua so what’s the excuse

We’re losing our youth to violence, and it feels like no one in leadership is listening. Where are the mentors? The safe spaces? The intervention programs?

No body cares no more all of self loving kindness and tender mercies gone gone gone family hold on in prayer and God will comfort you

Sarcastic I see. But there’s nothing the ABLP has done to you but make Antigua a better place. Okay, the ABLP may not be able to curve youth violence. That starts from parents and their troubled demon possessed kids. But on the brighter side of things. What has any other government done for us environmentally? Oh okay. Before you bash the ABLP for these ignorant, no brain, broken home youths. Do a fact check. Condolences to the family and friends of Vonde Bowers.

All is well in Antigua, Gaston Brown is good. ABLP is the best. Anybody who says otherwise is an “enemy of the state” according to Young Destroyer and many on this site. For me, I done talk. For YEARS we saw this coming and cried out constantly only to be cussed out by ABLP and their operatives. Now, look at where we are? To alleviate and reverse this, will take men and women who really care and that’s all I will say for now Condolences to the family.

If we will humble ourselves, those of us who name the name of Christ, look to God and pray and seek God’s face, turning from our wickedness, God will hear us, forgive us and heal our land. This is the word of God. It is called SIN people, and it has taken our land and this world. Let us hold our youths and young ones and pray for and with them, the enemy is taking them away. My heart hurts, I don’t know this young man, but I feel this so much.

Our children are no longer safe. We need real solutions, not just condolences. How many more yougg by men must dies before something changes?

This is absolutely devastating. A young life full of promise taken so senselessly. My prayers go out to Vonde’s family and friends.

It is with deep sadness that I write to acknowledge the heartbreaking loss of young Vonde Bowers, whose life was tragically cut short in an act of senseless violence. I extend my sincere condolences to his family, his schoolmates at Ottos Comprehensive School, and the entire cricketing community who mourn the passing of a bright and talented young man. However, I was particularly disturbed to learn through Antigua.news after 11 last night about the findings. The report detailing how his body was discovered in a gutter in Grays Farm with multiple stab wounds has sent shockwaves throughout our nation, especially among the youth whom Vonde inspired both in the classroom and on the cricket field. Vonde was not just a student; he was a national representative in cricket, a promising athlete who proudly wore the colours of Antigua and Barbuda. His passion and discipline embodied the best of our sporting ideals. We, as a country, cannot afford to overlook the urgent need to protect and nurture our youth, whether in their homes, schools, or communities. On the other hand, Antigua.news has done well to bring national attention to this tragedy, and I hope the coverage continues to be a catalyst for real community dialogue and action. I also encourage anyone with information about this case to come forward and assist law enforcement as they work to bring those responsible to justice. Let this not be just another headline. Let Vonde Bowers’ memory remind us all of what is at stake when we lose our young men to violence. As we grieve, we must also reflect and recommit to creating safe, supportive environments where our youth can grow, thrive, and live full lives. Thank you, Antigua.news, for your continued dedication to informing the public and highlighting stories that matter. I will remain a follower forever I send a special condolences to the family and friends.

Its always very sad to read about these events. It’s never something we want to hear about in our small island of Antigua and Barbuda. We have no idea what caused the altercation. What about walking away from trouble? Is that not a thing anymore? Our yoing people are on the wrong path. I pray dor grace ans mercy and peace. When we look in the face od our friends we should ourselves. We should love and not hate. My heart is crushed this morning as I have young boys.

Father help us in this little antigua here! I’m afraid, so afraid to walk these street. Yet my government remain silent or saying “antigua safe, safest in the Caribbean”. Our young people dying every day people being robbed, yet we’re safe? This government is the most non caring government in the world! Yet, come election ar you keep electing them. Very sad indeed!

Rumor has is that there’s a 16 year old in custody. This reminds me of when they killed Marie in Bendals. Sad that another teen dies and the other goes to jail.

Family must be devastated. Condolences to the famil

We need serious government intervention in today’s society. Like, can we see more youth engagements and all of that? Not just read about them on social and dem things

Well clearly it says grays farm. Reading should not be hard.

See some sort of altercation. Tho these altercations don’t have to end up with yall ready to kill each other, it times yall stop the shittery. Cause this makes no sense. Who’s talking to our youths?

Where did this incident happen?

The signs of time is here. Look up for our redemption draws nearer. NOBODY IS TO BE BLAMED.
IT IS CALLED PROPHECY FULFILLING!!!
ONLY the Lord with PRAYER AND BELIEVE CAN HELP US!!!

Last week and now he’s dead. Shame

Antigua tink and duty and the Government full a nothing, ABLP haffu go and Antigua.news no haffu carry this ya

Lord. Another teen gone due to violence, another person going to jail again. ALL DUE TO VIOLENCE. Who are we to blame? Parents? Society? Government? Schools? Or what people always blame, the church? Someone needs to step in and put an end to youth violence. It’s rising to high. Youths are involved in everything right now

The country need working cameras at every corner in St. John’s and better lighting across the island.

When will the ministers step in? When it’s too late? In recent days we’ve just been losing our youths one by one. Lord protect them and guide them

We are losing our youth at a very alarming rate. It’s almost like a demon I walking the land taking them away. I bet this murder was either gang affiliated or his killers are well known to the community as ‘bad seeds’ or known problem kids. Lord help us!!!
