Davin Joseph Appointed as Chairman of LIAT (2020)Ltd.

The Government of Antigua and Barbuda has announced the appointment of Davin Joseph as the new Chairman of LIAT (2020) Ltd.

The announcement was made yesterday by Melford Nicholas, during the post-cabinet news conference.

Ambassador Davin Joseph, who was retained by the government to facilitate the transition from LIAT (1974) to LIAT (2020), has been instrumental in the negotiations with Air Peace and in bringing LIAT (2020) into operation.

He will likely remain as the interim chairman for the next 60 days, pending the completion of financial and shareholder arrangements.

During a recent Cabinet meeting, Joseph sought support for the use of Government’s property formerly occupied by LIAT (1974) Ltd. The aim is to provide LIAT (2020) Ltd. with a hangar and other spaces to ensure the security of the airplanes it is seeking to acquire.

Joseph’s focus is on implementing measures for the seamless transition of LIAT (1974) Ltd., which has been declared bankrupt, to LIAT (2020) Ltd., a new entity.

The government, being a minority shareholder, is likely to cede the chairman position to its senior partner in Air Peace once the financial and shareholder arrangements are finalized.

LIAT (2020) Ltd. is set to revolutionize regional air travel and Ambassador Davin Joseph’s leadership is expected to play a pivotal role in its success.

  1. IT THIS FOR REAL? OR THE JOKE OF THE FREAKING CENTURY. DAVIN JOSEPH AS INTERIM CHAIRMAN OF LIAT 2020.WOULD COMRADES GET ALL OF THE TOP LEVELS WORKING POSITIONS IN ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA.SO QUALIFIED PEOPLE IN ANTIGUA.IF YOU ARE NOT A COMRADE CRAPAUD SMOKES YOUR PIPES.THERE IS NO WONDER THE COUNTRY IS OVER A CLIFF.PUTTING SQUARE PEGS INTO ROUND HOLES AND EXPECT A POSITIVE RESULT. I AM SO HAPPY,I HAD THE FORESIGHT TO LEAVE THAT PLACE OVER 4 DECADES AGO.

    • What happen to the “young professionals”, they say are flocking to ABLP? When all we see every time are the recycled old farts?
      Learn young people, learn who ABLP is and what you are getting into by joining them.

    • i agree with you i left my island for the Dog and all the foreighners i cant take antigua has become a laughting stock of the world am so pissed

  2. It look like Lennox Weston have been kicked to the curb.

    How sad but I am sure Mr. Weston have learned his lesson about the dawg.

  3. @ Not So Common
    Please don’t be your house.

    Antigua is investing over $60 million with two aircraft’s and it will have a 30 % ownership of LIAT 2020

    Air Peace will provide two aircrafts and get 70% ownership of LIAT 2020

    These are Gaston’s word from content written by or on his behalf to shape public perception positively about LIAT 2020

    With that type of deal from Gaston Browne, AirPeace may show up one day, so don’t bet your house yet.

  4. If the Government owns Minority shares in Liat 2022 who owns the MAJORITY? Is it Air Peace? Who is the senior partner in Air Peace (a Nigerian airline founded in 2013 with its head office in Lagos Nigeria ) that will most likely become the Chairman after the 60 days of which Davin Joseph is acting as Interim Chairman?

  5. He has to appoint one of his friends who will keep secrets. We talk about youth empowerment but only give top jobs to same old same old. Has anyone heard from those Nigerians lately. Why do I have a feeling they will be no show.

  6. Is this same individual who was accused by the Camaroonians who arrived on Air Antigua?

    If it is; then we know what to look forward too with the partnership with Air Peace.

    • I was asking myself the same question. Did you hear his response to the accusations of the Cameroonians/Nigerians? How pathetic can one get! Well, he’s an Ambassador so why not add some more cream to the top?

  7. The ablp laughing at MP Pringle because of the way he put over himself but I can say that davren Joseph make MP Pringle looks like a scholar, when joseph speaks he sounds like a real dunce .

  8. I don’t have to go politicking, but liat has had numerous CEO of vast management techniques under it belt, and fail because of political interference, sure Gaston can’t be serious to show the Caribbean community which they are hoping to invest in liat as regional transportation that a comrade in red will manage such a fragile crucial investment, it’s a slap in the face , it’s like bending over backwards and tearing your a$$.
