Tobago faces a supply crisis as cargo seabridge disruptions, blamed on a flawed replacement vessel, threaten food security and spark political outcry.
Former Prime Minister Dr. Keith Rowley has declared a crisis in Tobago due to ongoing disruptions in the cargo seabridge service, affecting his livestock operations and threatening food security.
He cited unreliable shipments of animal feed, damaging his business and highlighting the island's dependence on Trinidad for supplies.
Rowley criticized Chief Secretary Farley Augustine for consolidating power with a sweep of all Tobago House of Assembly and parliamentary seats, limiting oversight.
Opposition Leader Pennelope Beckles and Senator Melanie Roberts-Radgman echoed concerns, alleging the replacement vessel MV Blue Wave Harmony is flawed, costly, and poorly managed, with businesses reporting losses exceeding $1 million.
The situation has sparked alarm over supply reliability, safety, and transparency, with no public response from THA leadership.
