Summary

Former PM Hubert Minnis blasts the new LNG terminal’s soaring cost, revealing his own administration had planned a cheaper, publicly owned version — just $215 million, not the current project’s higher price tag. He recalls rejecting a pricier private bid and opting for Bahamas Power and Light, with a vision to sell government shares to Bahamians after three years. Minnis praises MP Pia Glover-Rolle for standing up to power outages in her district, calling her a true advocate for the people — even as a minister.
