The PNM To­ba­go Coun­cil has opened nom­i­na­tions for can­di­dates to con­test the up­com­ing To­ba­go House of As­sem­bly (THA) elec­tions, which are con­sti­tu­tion­al­ly due in De­cem­ber 2025.

Po­lit­i­cal leader An­cil Den­nis said this is more than just find­ing can­di­dates—it’s about find­ing true lead­ers.

“This is not just about se­lect­ing can­di­dates; it is about iden­ti­fy­ing lead­ers who will shape the fu­ture of To­ba­go. We are call­ing on men and women of in­tegri­ty, vi­sion, and heart to step for­ward. To­ba­go needs you now more than ever,” Den­nis said.

In a state­ment is­sued by the Coun­cil’s ex­ec­u­tive this morn­ing, the par­ty in­vit­ed “com­mit­ted, com­mu­ni­ty-dri­ven in­di­vid­u­als with a pas­sion for pub­lic ser­vice” to of­fer them­selves for se­lec­tion in all 15 elec­toral dis­tricts.

In­ter­est­ed per­sons must sub­mit a signed let­ter of con­sent ad­dressed to the sec­re­tary of the rel­e­vant dis­trict par­ty group, along with a de­tailed CV out­lin­ing their ex­pe­ri­ence and com­mu­ni­ty in­volve­ment.

Sub­mis­sions can be de­liv­ered to the dis­trict sec­re­taries or to the PNM To­ba­go Coun­cil Head­quar­ters at Robin­son Street, Scar­bor­ough.

The dead­line for ap­pli­ca­tions is May 28.

The par­ty said it is cur­rent­ly un­der­go­ing a pe­ri­od of re­new­al and re­or­ga­ni­za­tion, and that the nom­i­na­tion process is a crit­i­cal step in build­ing a new, peo­ple-can­tered team fo­cused on progress, ac­count­abil­i­ty, and de­liv­ery.

It added that it re­mains “com­mit­ted to To­ba­go’s de­vel­op­ment” and is prepar­ing to con­test all seats when vot­ers go to the polls lat­er this year.
