Nickocy Phillips -
Unity of the People political leader Nickocy Phillips has accused the PNM of trying to manipulate the electorate ahead of the January 25 THA election.
Phillips is seeking to capture the Buccoo/ Mt Pleasant electoral district from Chief Secretary and PNM candidate Ancil Dennis, who has held the seat for the past eight years.
Phillips, 32, a pharmacist, is the lone candidate on behalf of the Unity of the People.
This electoral district is the most sought after as the other contenders include Jaime Roberts-Baird (PDP) and Ricardo Phillip (Class Action Reform).
Phillips said, “I am really only focused on Mr Dennis, and the only upper hand that he has on me is because of the giveaways and the resources of the THA that they’ve been using to manipulate the people. I am hoping that the people would take the manipulation and vote for a representative that would represent their interest and the constituency in the way that it should.”
