Cooper's Pen Visit: Hope for Real Solutions | Jamaica News

Prime Minister Andrew Holness finally visited Cooper’s Pen in Trelawny, where 20 families lost their homes in August demolitions — now 40 families are still displaced and vulnerable as hurricane season looms. Opposition leader Lothan Cousins welcomes the visit but demands real action, urging the government to use the Local Communities Amenities Improvement Act to secure permanent housing, not just tents. Grassroots supporters like Dennis Meadows and Garth Wilkinson have stood with residents through the crisis, proving community solidarity matters. Cousins insists promises made during the visit must be honored — regardless of political shifts — as everyone waits for lasting solutions that bring stability and security to those most affected.
