Posted On 13 Dec 2017

NATEX 2017The new United National Congress (UNC) National Executive (NATEX) headed by Political Leader Mrs Kamla Persad- Bissessar was sworn in yesterday at the Party’s MNF last night.

The Party looks forward to work that would be done by the new NATEX to improve the UNC, as we prepare for local government and general election.

The UNC notes that the gross incompetence of this Keith Rowley led PNM Government has caused widespread institutional failure. Under their tenure- crime, unemployment and poverty has gone up. Citizens no longer feel safe and the economy is failing.

The recently concluded internal elections has allowed the UNC to put together a NATEX team that would create strong structures to ensure that we can return good governance to Trinidad and Tobago.

The new UNC NATEX is as follows:

Political Leader

Kamla Persad-Bissessar

Ms. Khadijah Ameen
