Truley had to borrow this photo from the Jamaica Observer.
Except for someone who told me that someone told them that PNP persons were planning on beating JLP persons, and claimed to rip green uniforms off girls.. I CANT SAY I heard of or witnessed any real political tension.
I drove around all day, going about my jobs. The air was jubilant. In many areas, I saw Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) supporters embracing or walking alongside People’s National Party (PNP) supporters with huge grins.
I saw one man wear green BOLDLY holding a flag as he went through a strict PNP innercity community. I heard someone shout his house might get burnt .. but immediately I heard others shout FREEDOM of speech.. and except for the man.. they proudly wore orange shirts with the face of their favourites.
I still have yet to get a green flag, as all I got were promisies.. but wearing green I secured an orange PNP flag passing through Mannings Hill Road.
