ONE OF THE 3Ws busts at Wanstead Park, Cave Hill, St Michael, has again been decapitated.
And an upset Member of Parliament for the area, Donville Inniss, says the act smacks not only of a lack of respect for property, but also of ignorance of the contribution made by the famous batting trio.
The replica head of Sir Clyde Walcott was knocked off and left on the ground looking up at the other two busts of Sir Frank Worrell and Sir Everton Weekes.
Two plaques, commemorating the involvement of a number of companies in the tribute, had also been chipped off and placed to lean against the stone base.
It was in 2014 that the bust of Sir Everton was vandalised in a similar fashion, but the artists Frances Ross and Art Edwards created another which was installed in 2015.
“I really don’t know what more I can say,” said Inniss, who was one of those who officially unveiled the restored bust in 2015.
“If people don’t appreciate the work of our artists and the contribution that the 3Ws would have made to Barbados not just in terms of sport but in terms of international acclaim, then I don’t know what else could help,” he added. (HLE)
