Two independent senators, Dr Kenneth Connell and Monique Taitt, were sworn in today — the first under the leadership of President of Barbados, The Most Honourable Jeffrey Bostic.
Attorney Taitt, who previously served under President Emerita The Most Honourable Dame Sandra Mason, resigned at the end of her tenure along with former senator Dr Crystal Drakes. Taitt stated she appreciated being reinstated but declined further questions.
Connell, a long-standing advocate for healthy living, said he would continue to prioritise health and, as a senator, was also committed to contributing to Barbados’ development wherever needed.
