Progress requires action - not talk.

Munroe
Candidate for Free Town
I am Wayne Munroe, Progressive Liberal Party candidate for Free Town.
I am a Bahamian committed to delivering tangible progress for the constituency of Free Town and The Bahamas as part of a vibrant, forward-looking progressive team.
I am running to build on the progress made over the last five years. This work matters to me because we are accountable to future generations and to God for the use of our time and resources.
Progress in Free Town and the wider Bahamas looks like rebuilding a strong sense of community through the continued improvement of community spaces and services. It is the continued expansion of educational, vocational, and occupational opportunities, and the strengthening of The Bahamas’ voice and place in the wider world.
