A senior member of the Antigua Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP) is challenging the leader of the United Progressive Party (UPP) to disclose now, the men and women who will sit in his Cabinet of ministers if elected.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Molwyn Joseph was questioning at qualifications of candidates on the UPP team when he addressed a political meeting in Gray’s Farm last night.<\/p>\n

He was at the time comparing the ABLP candidates over the UPP candidates.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Joseph said his opponent in St. Mary’s North is “half a man” and boasted of the competence of the current Cabinet of ministers.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

“From the UPP only three people are left, they all gone,” he said in\u00a0reference to former UPP government ministers who are no longer contesting.<\/p>\n

“And now Lovell\u00a0have to go an seek candidates. He went into each constituency\u00a0and he said if you have two hands, two feet, and two eyes come up even if you don’t\u00a0have any brain,” Joseph said.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

“I want to challenge Harold Lovell tonight to name his cabinet. He has to name his cabinet and present it to the people of Antigua Barbuda,” Joseph insisted.<\/p>\n

Earlier in the meeting, Prime Minister Gaston\u00a0Browne announced that\u00a0Joseph\u00a0will be returned as\u00a0minister for\u00a0health, the\u00a0environment, and wellness.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

“Tell us who is going to be your finance minister, it cannot be Lovell\u00a0again. Who is going to be the minister of agriculture, it cannot be Lamin he still finding his thoughts and who is going to be the minister of tourism,” Joseph questioned.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

He accused the UPP of not taking Antigua and Barbuda seriously and charged them with being unprepared for the snap poll and having a weak team.<\/p>\n

“They are seeking to say to you that they have a talented group of men. No such a thing, no talent here.”<\/p>\n
