Oh boy, very tragic
Wow 😲, this is such a sad situation
Wow 😲, this is such a sad situation , My condolences goes out to all of his family members,and co-workers,may his soul rest in peace
Sad to hear. Hope he pulls through okay.
Prayers for the worker and his family. No one expects to go to work and end up like that.
These construction sites need tighter safety protocols, man. Life too precious.
This shouldn’t be happening in 2025. Where was the site supervisor?
When are we going to start taking worker safety seriously? SMH
Hope this doesn’t delay the Booby Alley project too long.
Prayers for the both of them
very tragic… oh my God
how did this happen?
Will this be another set back to the booby alley housing project? We were expecting a sooner finish. Condolences to the family
Gaston’s project, alfa nero saga, read between the lines. Condolences to the Chinese Community in Antigua. This is not a news we expected today
This is a very sad story. You leave your home for work and never return. Very sad, sad indeed.
Oh no, sad situation indeed. My prayers are with his grieving family and loved ones
Deepest condolences
Power lines over the construction site.
Missed by the construction firm, missed by DCA and obviously wouldn’t be moved without the appropriate request being made to APUA.
Antigua doesn’t have a clue when it comes to occupational safety and health.
He can be the test corpse at the new crematorium up Old Parham Road.
ANR are hard at work keeping us updated with the news as it happens!
TRAGEDY STRUCK…? …HEALTH AND SAFETY: …FOREMOST PRIORITY
ISSUES RAISED:
This incident, undoubtedly, speaks of a ‘…TRAGEDY’of ‘grieving proportions.
While the circumstances were not fully known, and may not be known, without the ‘HOLDING OF A CORONER’S INQUISITION,’ such may very well have been averted.
BUT ONLY TO THE EXTENT THAT:
(a) ‘…HEALTH AND SAFETY’ WAS FOREMOST, AND GIVE UTMOST PRIORITY.’
***
GRIEVINGLY RARE: …CHINESE NATIONAL INQUEST: …PATHETICALLY LAZY CORONERS
Though a ‘…GRIEVINNGLY RARE’ occurrence, it could now see ‘…PATHETICALLY LAZY CORONERS,’ holding in haste a ‘…CHINESE NATIONAL INQUEST.’
***
REMOVE HAZARDS:
CLIMB WATCHFULLY GOOD.
***
DEATHS PENDING CORONER’S INQUESTS:
(i) ‘…THE ANDREW NOYCES-41: KILLED BY POLICE
(ii) …SHANELL THOMASES-34: Ditto
(iii) …MANNY JAMES- 45: Ditto
THE YENNIFER BRIDGES- 17: (Suspected Police Killing):
(iv) …THE JAMAR SMITH -…POPULAR ‘TIK TOKER – POLICE KILLING: and
(v) …CORDAYRO JOSEPH: (Prison Inmate-reportedly dien in ‘…CELL BLOCK)
***
FOR INQUESTS: … CORONER’S ACT:- CHAPTER 105.
THESE ARE ALL BEGGING FOR THE HOLDING OF ‘…CORONER’S INQUESTS.’

Aww, so sad! Rip and hoping the other one pulls through! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Where is OSHA when we need it for occupational safety. Does it even exist in this domain? The standard pursuit for safety enforcement in 🇦🇬 is an haphazard exercise of mediocrity with incompetence at it’s best.
Safety is the last thing on constructions site here unless something tragic happen then management get serious
Hallowed grounds will always speak! Whatever become of the bones which were excavated during the initial site work? Were they human and if so, how were they dealt with?
The Chinese would never allow us to desecrate their ancestors final resting places.
your praying is meaningless. The Chinese do not suffer from cognitive inertia.
