NASSAU, BAHAMAS — Opposition Leader Philip Brave Davis said Prime Minister Dr Hubert Minnis should not blame the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) for a controversial oil drilling deal, but should instead “accept responsibility for his own decisions”.
Davis’ comments, made in a statement released Friday, follow the prime minister telling the media he remained “totally against” the spud of an exploratory well set to begin as early as Tuesday of this week.
On the sidelines of a Crown Land grant ceremony on Abaco, Minnis suggested he would have backed out of the deal with Bahamas Petroleum Company (BPC) “if we could have gotten out of it”.
