Following a meeting last Thursday to discuss the matter of honorary citizenship for members of the Garinagu diaspora, the Garifuna Heritage Foundation has decided to decline from publicly commenting on the issue.
Speaking to SEARCHLIGHT, David âDarkieâ Williams, president of the Garifuna Heritage Foundation, explained: âIf it develops into something other than what it is now,{{more}} we will have to make a statement. As is, right now we are not going to make a statement.â
Williams pointed out that several persons involved in the issue have been attempting to clarify their stances on the matter.
âThe Prime Minister has done that; Mr Eustace is trying to do that â to explain what he means by âhonoraryâ. So, we are looking at it develop.
âWe are just observing for now.â (JSV)
