BARBUDA – As Barbuda approaches its biennial election on March 26, 2025, MP Trevor Walker has issued a strong call to voters, urging them to ensure they have valid voter identification cards ahead of the crucial polls.
Walker, representing The Barbuda People’s Movement (BPM), emphasized the significance of the upcoming election, warning against the risk of placing Barbuda’s future in what he described as “callous hands.”
“We are headed into a crucial season here in Barbuda, as our local biennial election is right upon us—set for March 26th, 2025,” Walker stated. “I strongly urge registered persons to replace their expired voter identification cards well in advance of the upcoming election.”
Declaring that Barbudans must take charge of their future, he stressed the importance of “informed and responsible progress,” which he called “the Barbudan way.”
Walker positioned the BPM as the party committed to safeguarding Barbuda’s land and heritage for future generations.
“A vote for The Barbuda People’s Movement is a vote for preservation of our land and birthright for our children and grandchildren. The future of Barbuda depends on us,” he said.
The upcoming election is expected to shape the leadership of the Barbuda Council, a body that plays a key role in the island’s governance. With tensions over land rights and development being central issues in past elections, the contest is likely to be closely watched.
Barbudans eligible to vote are encouraged to check the status of their voter identification cards and renew them in advance to ensure a smooth voting process on election day.
