Published: 08.03.2010 11:05
Almost 43 years after he led the 1967 Anguilla Revolution, which culminated in the island’s formal separation from St. Kitts-Nevis in 1980, James Ronald Webster was honoured with a public holiday filled with a spectacular series of social and cultural events on his 84th birthday on Tuesday this week. The morning and afternoon celebration, in recognition of his revolutionary and fearless leadership of Anguilla, will be an annual event. Mr. Webster, who was not in attendance, was reported by Chief Minister, Hubert Hughes, to have been at an “undisclosed location.” Reports stated however that he had left the island for his customary visit to St. Croix, US Virgin Islands.
