Sherry Singh: “We must remain vigilant on November 9 & 10”
Sherry Singh attended the Alliance of Change congress in Nouvelle-France (No. 11 – Vieux-Grand-Port/Rose-Belle) as the electoral campaign draws to a close. During his speech, Singh explained his motivations for entering politics. He expressed concern about the current political climate, suggesting that the leadership appears to be steering towards a dictatorial regime.
According to him, a Prime Minister should act responsibly and ethically.
He emphasized the critical choice facing voters on November 10: the option between “freedom” with the Alliance of Change, which aims to rebuild the nation, or “dictatorship.”
He stated, “I do not believe anyone wants to remain under a dictatorship, associated with drugs and the mafia that these people are promoting.
I think the majority of people are already convinced, but mistakes can still happen.”
The former Chief Executive Officer of Mauritius Telecom urged voters in constituency No. 11 to clarify the actual situation and the stakes of this election to those who are undecided.
“If we do not regain our freedom, how can we rebuild?
If they return, you must accept that someone in your family might fall into drugs, and you will have to endure it for 15 years because no one will be able to lift their head.
Therefore, it is crucial for our freedom that we make the right choice.”
He further warned that the country cannot afford to take risks with the political landscape.
“If we cast our votes lightly, it equates to a vote for the mafia and drugs, everything we are hearing about.
It is very important that we vote wisely, especially on the 9th and 10th.
We all need to be vigilant and not allow any doors—neither the internet nor the postal service—to remain open for these individuals to come in.”
Reflecting on his political journey, Sherry Singh stated that since 2005, he has diligently supported the MSM party.
He commented on Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth, saying, “At the time, he didn’t seem dangerous; he was like a bland soft drink.
However, when he became Prime Minister, starting from 2017, I observed an extraordinary change in his character as well as in that of his wife—though I prefer not to discuss her too much.
Then we entered a campaign, and it is essential for the public to be aware that, when I perceived danger, I began to distance myself.
“There comes a moment in our lives when we have to choose,” he affirmed.
