NATIONAL COUNCIL TO HOLD ADDITIONAL ELECTIONS NEXT SUNDAY

In her address to the National Congress, Morris charged the youth of the PNPYO to be dedicated, diligent and deliberate in advocating for a Jamaica that works not only for the youth of today but for the youth of tomorrow.

In a statement announcing Morris’ election, the PNPYO said it remained committed to the youth of Jamaica and would continue to build “a vibrant, vocal and visionary youth organisation for the upcoming political year”.
