Dem criminals in Antigua so advanced dem might devise some kinda way foo outsmart dem
All me a say a nuh dunce out n tell ppl wey aru go put dem so dem know wey for dodge dem
What sickens many of us about this REACTIVE Prime Minister, is that Antiguans have been calling out for security cameras across the country ever since the rise in criminal activity.
You’ve only have to scroll back overtime on these same said ANR threads to discover concerns from BOTH political parties on this subject on security and security cameras.
But now this stubborn – do as I say – DRAGOMAN is now going to place cameras around Antigua 4-5 years late. 🇦🇬 And BTW Prime Minister 200 cameras isn’t near enough. At least 2000 would be a better start.
Meanwhile I hope you understand that your stubbornness is giving Chet ‘The Chancer’ Green the opportunity to pounce whilst waiting in the wings.
Bullfoot soup anyone?
Let us hope thar these cameras used for Road Safety as well as crime detection.
Time for the cameras . I hope its start on Monday
The government should get solar powered streetlight with camera combination out of china to replace all existing streetlights system and help the police and government solve crime and deterrence, while It would also be good to hear of these other surveillance cameras the government opined on, you see my method of systematically replace the existing streetlights to this solar powered streetlight with equip camera with sound transmission and sim card equipped, you will be able to see vehicles movement especially after they move about you can see what was in the vicinity at the moment the crime was committed. These solar powered streetlight with camera combination should have their batteries mounted at the top of the pole in tandem with the streetlights, I ask this government to let me realize my dream of making Antigua and Barbuda the land of my birth more safer.
Great. Cameras will be welcomed, but I can remember when Baldwin Spencer was PM and the UPP was talking about installing Cameras the ALP was telling us the Government just wanted to spy on people now things have full circle. Anybody remember that
all badman have to do is wait a year or two when they can’t maintain them and they stop working
Yawn. Like everything else in Antigua, there is no plan. Cameras will have no security and will be stolen and vandalized. And the cameras like everything else that is government owned, will be neither maintained nor serviced. And most of all they will not be monitored. More waste.
A police station needed in Sweetes and that junction where them badman hang out is the perfect place those killers and theif will have to go bush now…
Tap lie so early in the morning.
We have consistently heard this bs for the last 20 years ALP before, UPP after and now ABLP. SORRY, bit now seeing will be the truth. Words without works are DEAD.
This is silly, atleast the article was good
At least they are trying. Give them a thumbs up for that. But most people homes have cameras and these brazen thieves dont give a shyte. They cover their faces and do their thing without fear. Chances are they will rise at midnight and smash these camera’s. We are dealing with a new breed of monesters.
Cameras are not the solution it’s a bandaid. The police need to do their jobs and deal with the people walking around at night and fore day morning wearing masks and carrying weapons, instead of finding ways to invade citizens privacy. If the police were being proactive these issues would have been fixed a long time ago. It took someone with status dying for them to want to install surveillance. Cameras don’t save lives and should be the responsibility of homeowners and residents. What the government should be doing is offering duty free for cameras and changing laws so victims have the right to defend themselves as soon as they see these masked criminals. Laws also need to be put in place for acquiring footage from cameras from houses aimed at the street.
“Cameras are not the solution it’s a bandaid. The police need to do their jobs and deal with people walking around at night…”
My sentiments exactly @Antigua First.
The rise in the purchasing of security cameras and the additional paraphernalia on the whole is a good thing; but can a camera physically arrest and handcuff a burglar? Or detain the suspicious for questioning?
Or shot to kill when a vulnerable resident is brutally attacked?
Security equipment and 24/7 policing must work together, and the icing on the cake will be if our Prime Minister and the Police authorities also take action to protect us from more criminality.
They said that before. Two years ago. So why now they making it sound brand new. Stop saying and just do. Damn it man
A hard to please nation geezzzeee! You’ve asked for it, now it’s going to be enforced and y’all are still complaining smh
Stop the negativity!
