Bishop of Roseau, Kenderick Forbes, has stated that priests and clergymen should refrain from using the pulpit to promote partisan politics.

Bishop Forbes emphasised that while priests and spiritual leaders have the right to support or vote for political parties, they should not use their platforms to endorse any specific party or candidate.

He, however, says that the church has a responsibility to address certain issues affecting society.
