Former Prime Minister Basdeo Panday says the Spiritual Baptist Liberation Day holiday originated from a desire to ensure equality of treatment of all people in Trinidad and Tobago.
The holiday was granted under the Panday administration in 1996 to commemorate the repeal of the offensive Shouters Prohibition Ordinance.
Mr. Panday said that a desire to ensure equality in this country was the motive behind granting the holiday.
He said divisions continue to persist in society to this day, and we are paying the price for it.
