THE NATIONAL Democratic Movement (NDM) is emerging from “a coma” and has scaled down to an advocacy group, Chairman Michael Williams has said.
He cited a failed attempt to solicit support from a businessman as an example of why the NDM was unable to compete with the ruling Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) and the Opposition People’s National Party (PNP).
He closed his chequebook,” recounted Williams as he documented the party’s challenges in getting financial support.
Golding returned to the JLP and led the party to victory in the 2007 general election.
Only four parties are currently registered by the Electoral Commission of Jamaica to contest the next general election, which is constitutional due by early 2021.
