REAL NEWS – As the National Solid Waste Management Authority is relocating its headquarters to another property on the Sir George Walter Highway, MP Richard Lewis is criticizing its continued late or delayed collection of garbage.
For several months now, the Authority has been forced to apologize to the public for its untimely collection in some areas.
However, Lewis says it is more than the waste-collection issue.
The Authority is challenged to keep the roadsides and other public areas free from overgrown shrubbery and bushes, which can become hiding places for criminals.
Speaking at the United Progressive Party (UPP) rally in Bolans on Thursday night, September 28, Lewis noted that, under the Baldwin Spencer Administration, Antigua and Barbuda had been much cleaner.
He says that garbage had been collected on time and the roadsides were kept clean and groomed.
With the Browne Administration collecting more revenue than any other previously, MP Lewis says he is wondering how waste collection has become such a problem.
There must be something fundamentally wrong at the Authority, he says, and getting it corrected is a good reason for the St. Mary’s South constituents to re-elect UPP candidate Kelvin “Shugy” Simon.
Meanwhile, the Authority is relocating to the Sealy Building, farther northeast on Sir George Walter Highway.
Its last business day at its current location was today, September 29. In order to facilitate the move, operations at the headquarters will be closed from Monday, October 2, to Thursday, October 5.
Business resumes on Friday, October 6, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. September 29, 2023 Editor As the National Solid Waste Management Authority is relocating its headquarters to another property on the Sir George Walter Highway, MP Richard Lewis is criticizing its continued late or delayed collection of garbage.

Watch u back boy. De 💄 🐖 🐷 don’t want u as party leader!!!! She will go to the ends of de earth to block you
When is the ALP convention? I can guarantee you that there will be violence if a convention is even contemplated. That’s what happens in a dictatorship.
As usual failure always create false optics, a discussion away from the solution, and that is keep Antigua clean. But moving to new building is desensitizing the public that solid waste coming new, but that’s an enrichment scheme for some thief.
