The 2016 Jamaica General Election is over, just in case you missed it.

But how could you?

There was a 1.5 quake that displaced the ruling Peoples’ National Party. In March 2016, the Jamaica Labour Party with Prime Minister elect Andrew Holness came into power.

Its early days yet, but many Jamaicans are watching like a hawk, to see what the second term prime Minister will do.
