So y’all are saying in the island of “forwarded many times” nobody knows who hit Marco?

As social media continues to be an integral part of our daily lives, it’s essential that it be used not only to connect socially, but as a source of truth for key information; particularly to young people. Noting that the budget and its particulars are complex, this year, I invited 4 Bermudian social media personalities, each with a unique following and distinct voice, for 1:1 interviews to answer questions and take a deep dive into the issues close to them and their audiences.
I really enjoyed these collaborations and I hope these conversations can offer valuable bite sized chunks of information about the work that the @BdaGovernment does each day on behalf of the people of Bermuda and especially our young people.
These collaborations will be released as a 4-part series ‘Candid Convos With the Premier' and will feature: @DionTheCreative, @stfucarly, @qiandickinson and Yassine the Artist. We’ll be covering a range of topics that are currently generating a lot of interest and discussion, such as:
- “Why doesn’t Bermuda have ApplePay?”
- “What are the Government’s plans to help promote local creatives?”
- “Who is Bermuda in debt to?”
- “What education opportunities are there for adults?”
- “What did the Auditor General report get wrong?”
- “Does the Government have any plans to help revitalise St. George’s?”
- “What will happen to the empty school buildings?”
And that’s just to name a few! Mark your calendars - the first episode with @DionTheCreative drops on Friday 🎬.
Have any questions of your own? Drop a comment down below - I’d love to hear from you. #LetsGetCandid

Gombey culture and regalia are sacred, it's not about exclusion but some things just aren't for everyone, it's not a play play costume, it's deeply rooted, respect it! Why is that hard for people to understand smh
