Paul Lewis has emerged as the Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
He was sworn in on Friday afternoon, few hours after the new ministers of government were installed.
In a brief ceremony held also at the Governor’s Office, Lewis was sworn-in as opposition leader with his appointee members of the Opposition looking on.
Former premier Donaldson Romeo, David Osborne, and Claude Hogan joined him for the occasion. These gentlemen will be sworn in during the first meeting of the Legislative Assembly at a date yet to be determined.
The new Opposition Leader told the press he was ready for the role and looked forward to challenging the government to always implement projects for the good of the people. He is hopeful that the MCAP team will continue the projects his party began.
Former premier Donaldson Romeo told the press he was enjoying his new responsibilities. He plans to focus on establishing non-profit charities in areas where there are primary concentrations of Montserratian nationals in the Diaspora so they can contribute to the island’s development.
