NASSAU| Bahamas Press is learning
Island Luck CEO SEBAS BASTIAN is about to become a Non-resident Honorary Consul Ambassador for the Bahamas to the Commonwealth of South Africa.
BP sources deep inside the Cabinet of the Bahamas has confirmed the same as an announcement is now pending.
Mineral rich South Africa could be a future location for big businesses for the Bahamas. Sebas’ Island Luck does big gaming business in the motherland and naming him to the post could open new doors for the nation.
Some believe, however, the appointment would be a big payback for the election supplies awarded to the Minnis FNM for the upcoming snap General Elections.

A 25-year-old man who was found with an illegal firearm that he claimed he had for “protection” was yesterday sentenced to 18 months in prison.
Police arrested Eric Thurston after they found him with a black Taurus pistol and six .40mm live rounds of ammunition on December 18.
He pleaded guilty to one count each of possession of an unlicensed firearm and illegal ammunition during his hearing before Magistrate Samuel McKinney yesterday.
The court was told that that day, officers responded to a code 91 near Island Luck on Cordeaux Avenue and Miami Street. Upon their arrival, they saw a man fitting the description they were given by officers in their control room. The prosecution said the suspect attempted to flee the scene, which prompted the officers to give chase. It was at that time that Thurston removed a black handgun from his waist and dropped it on the ground.
