Episode Details

Opposition lawmakers are escalating protests, demanding the immediate resignation of Public Works and Public Utilities and Aviation ministers over the deadly MV Barima disaster that killed 73. They’ve vowed to follow the president wherever he goes, chanting “Edghill and Indar must go!” at a recent government outreach. Critics accuse the ministers of incompetence and say the government is using public consultations to distract from accountability. Protesters also condemn the army’s deployment, calling it an overreach and a sign of fear. They reject charges against the ship’s crew as an attempt to silence witnesses and insist the ministers lack the dignity to hold office after such a tragedy. With peaceful demonstrations set to continue, the opposition is clear: they won’t back down until full accountability is achieved.
