The best qualified Senators of Haiti are too afraid to run for office, Senator Gracia Delva said

Haitian Senator Gracia Delva made a huge declaration live on the radio calling on all Haitian citizens who are best qualified to serve their country as Senators of the Republic to run for office despite their fears.

Senator Gracia delva Live on the Radio

"There are many other Haitians citizens who are much more qualified than myself to be Senator of the Republic but they are so affraid of politics that they do not run for office, or worse, they leave the country and settle for any odd jobs overseas.

"Don't be affraid, don't run away, have the courage to run fo office," Senator Gracia Delva said.

"I don't want you to have another Senator like me," He said.

Senator Delva also said the reason most if not all the best potential senators of Haiti are afraid to run for office is because there are many wolves in Haitian politics who are ready to do and say anything to discourage those who would serve the country best.

When these potential men and women gather enough courage to run for office, not only will people like him not be senator, the country will no longer have the type of politics it has right now and will finally be on the right track.
