Be very vigilant of this prime minister. He speaks on reparations yet he creates laws that turn Rastafari rights to permission granted by ministerial whim. Rastafari is an indigenous African way of life. This man also owes his allegiance to Rome as a catholic and not to Africa. He is currently selling our agricultural lands to white foreigners.
