WASHINGTON, D.C., October 5, 2023 — The Hon. Ginger Moxey, Minister for Grand Bahama, in posting a collection of photos on Facebook today taken at the opening of Parliament on Wednesday, October 4, said she was “honored to be the Chair of the Committee that reported to the Governor General and the Speaker of The House.”
Noting that the opening of Parliament yesterday “marked the commencement of the Davis/Cooper administration’s new legislative agenda, Minister Moxey added, “I look forward to this sitting of parliament as it promises to be progressive and productive, with a focus on addressing the pressing issues that our nation faces. Together, we will work diligently to create policies and laws that benefit all citizens and lead us toward a brighter future.”
Having lived in Freeport for 12 years prior to returning to Washington, D.C., in 2013 as the Press, Cultural Affairs and Information Manager at The Bahamas Embassy in 2013, the fact that Ginger Moxey is doing such a fantastic job as Minister for Grand Bahama does not come as a surprise to me.
When I lived in Freeport, I was editor of The Freeport News, the daily newspaper in Grand Bahama that recently ceased publication, and I worked closely with Ginger Moxey, who at the time was an executive with the Grand Bahama Port Authority (GBPA), with responsibility for matters related to public relations.
Therefore, I am immensely proud of the excellent job she is doing as Minister for Grand Bahama, and I absolutely had to share her post on the opening of Parliament with readers of my online publication, BAHAMAS CHRONICLE, which has a huge following among the Bahamian diaspora across the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom as well as in The Bahamas and the wider Caribbean.
