Need to diversify VI's economy - Estridge
“The need to diversify the BVI’s economy should no longer be a political football,” the poster on his platform stated.
It added that Mr Estridge is confident enough to take on the challenge with modern and innovative ideas but needs the support of the people of the VI to get to the House of Assembly.
“Vote for Renard and make it clear that this election has to be about what is best and will develop this territory. Support Renard’s campaign and vote for the betterment of our economy and collective future,” he said.
Mr Estridge, who was born in St Kitts, is an attorney with the law firm Harneys.
