Newly appointed Opposition Senator Jonathan Wehner says he intends to use his position in the Upper House to advocate for young people and push for action on issues including healthcare, education, employment and the rising cost of living.<\/p>

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

Speaking to ABS Television following his swearing-in ceremony at Government House on Monday, the 24-year-old senator said he plans to serve as \u201ca voice for the youth\u201d in Parliament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn terms of Parliament, I will be, as I would have expected my party to see, being a young person, to be a voice for the youth, an advocate for the youth, whether it be in healthcare, education, employment, cost of living \u2014 all these things that affect young people across Antigua and Barbuda,\u201d Wehner said.<\/p>

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

Wehner said his contributions in the Senate would go beyond political rivalry and focus instead on addressing real national concerns.<\/p>

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

\u201cNot just to score political points,\u201d he added as he outlined his priorities in public life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The newly appointed senator described his elevation to the Senate as a \u201chumbling moment\u201d and expressed gratitude to Opposition Leader Jamale Pringle and the United Progressive Party for placing confidence in him.<\/p>

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

\u201cI am very humbled to be selected by my political leader and now Leader of the Opposition, the Honourable Jamale Pringle,\u201d Wehner said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the start of the interview, Wehner also congratulated the government on winning the April 30 general election, saying the outcome reflected the will of the electorate.<\/p>

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

\u201cThe government has won, the people have spoken, and we must all listen to the voice of the people,\u201d he stated.<\/p>

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

Despite political differences, Wehner stressed that the role of the Opposition is not simply to oppose the government, but to ensure accountability and national progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs the Opposition, it is our responsibility not just to oppose, but also to hold the government accountable, keep their feet to the fire, to ensure that we have better for Antigua and Barbuda nationally,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not about party colors, it\u2019s about advancing our country, our nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wehner also thanked supporters, family members and party officials for helping shape his political journey, saying he did not reach the Senate on his own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA lot of people contributed to ensure I am the person I am today. I didn\u2019t get here by myself,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He credited the UPP with giving him opportunities to grow politically, including serving as an executive member and acting public relations officer before his Senate appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey have given me the opportunity to serve as an executive member, given me the opportunity to serve as their acting public relations officer, they\u2019ve given me the opportunity to serve in the Senate,\u201d Wehner said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo I owe a lot to this party, to my leader, to the executive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wehner also used the opportunity to congratulate government senator Shaquan O\u2019Neil, who at 22 became the youngest senator in Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wehner revealed that O\u2019Neil is a relative and said political divisions should not prevent mutual respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEven though we\u2019re on different divides of the political aisle, it\u2019s still important to congratulate him,\u201d Wehner said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The newly sworn-in senator also thanked Senator Colin O\u2019Neil, whom he described as one of his \u201cbiggest encouragers and supporters.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wehner was among three opposition senators sworn in Monday at Government House alongside Ashworth Azille and Chester Hughes. Opposition Senator-designate Malaka Parker is expected to be sworn in at a later date after missing the ceremony due to travel.<\/p>\n
