UDP NPC Meeting to Set Convention Date Coming

Panton is now focused on leading the United Democratic Party forward. She mentioned that the National Party Council will meet soon to set a date for the national convention. Panton plans for the event to be an endorsement convention, as she doesn’t expect any challenges to her leadership.

“It is very important for the national party council to meet, for the wider UDP family to meet so we can bring them up to speed as to where things are and also have a plan and a way forward. I am not a dictator. There is no dictator in my leadership. So, it is of paramount importance to me.”

“How do you view the fact that in our interview just know the fact thar Mr. Patt has thrown his support behind you, Mr. Barrow is saying he did not have the authority to delegate leadership. They are still holding on to this idea that they are still the true UDP?”

“Well who is causing the chaos? How could a former Area Rep and a former party leader and a former leader of the opposition determine what an elected official will do or say. Hugo Patt has his own prerogative to determine what is right to move this party forward. He has said that loudly and clearly and body to the public. He said that to the court by asking for his name to be removed by the claimant. We have to stop listening to the noise and I implore you as members of the media to stop yielding to the confusion being created by one individual in the U.D.P.”
